Buying Real Estate – Know Your Rights

Looking to buy your first home? When it comes to buying a home there are a few things to consider, especially when it comes to your rights.

For one thing, potential buyers should never feel pressured to “buy” a home. Unlike the token car salesman approach, buying a home can be stressful and require a lot of consideration.

Some tactics that real estate agents may utilize is that they will let potential buyers feel the pressure of, if you don’t decide now, someone else will buy it.

Another tactic real estate agent may use is when they think a potential buyer can “afford” more they will talk about what they should put down – this is not the job of a real estate agent but a broker.

Another thing that a potential homeowner should always keep in mind when it comes to potentially buying their dream home is that they are entitled to have it inspected with their own home inspection agent. Just because a home may come with its own home inspection report, if you feel the need to have your own inspection, the real estate agent or

seller can’t deny that. Should the homeowner choose to deny a home inspection or push for one to not happen – I would advise to not move forward. If anything, be concerned that there may be some hidden underlying problems that they don’t want anyone to know about.

Buying a home is not a small decision or undertaking. It is important that all necessary precautions are taken and that as a buyer, you feel confident in making the purchase. When you have a good team behind your decision to enter the real estate market, they will have your interest in mind and protect your buying rights. Listen to your instincts but also your real estate agent when it comes to buying your dream home!
