What NOT to Do Before Buying a House


Helpful Tip For Home Buyers

  • Don't make a major purchase. This will change your credit score and possibly disqualify you from a mortgage.
  • Don't change jobs unless it's absolutely necessary. A consistent work history is crucial to lenders.
  • Don't give earnest money directly to a For Sale By Owner seller.
  • Don't forget to switch utilities. Call the utility companies before closing.
  • Don't forget to get Hazard Insurance as long before closing as possible.
  • Don't ignore lender requirements. Be absolutely clear on what the lender requires and take care of it.
  • Don't go it alone. A reliable real estate professional will help you with all the details, including the ones you didn't think of.
