CONSIDERATIONS FOR A FIRST HOME BUYER

When you look at long term returns, real estate investment tops the list. When looking to buy a home as an investment and also for dwelling, here are some things that first time home buyers should keep in mind.

TYPE OF HOME YOU NEED
The first thing to consider is the type of home you need. Whether you want a town house for a small family or a large home with luxurious amenities, you need to make a choice based on your needs, preferences, lifestyle and most importantly, your budget.

SPECIFIC FEATURES IN YOUR NEW HOME
It is important to know what you want in a home before investing in one. Make a list of amenities, features and other aspects of a home you want before you go to see properties. That will make it easier to filter out the properties you see.

KNOW YOUR BUDGET
Knowing how much you can invest into a property, without negatively impacting your lifestyle, is among the most important things you must consider before taking the plunge. Talk to banks and mortgage lenders to know your eligibility and the maximum loan amount you can receive. Your affordability is another factor that will help you filter out the shortlisted properties.

HOME AS AN INVESTMENT
The home you buy is also an investment that can offer great returns in the future. Buying a home today will pay off well in the long run, provided you make the right choices. Among the things you should consider include the area or region where you are purchasing the property, the net worth of the asset, the appreciation of land value and depreciation of the property.

GOVERNMENT GRANTS
As a first home buyer there may be grants or assistance provided by the Australian Government available for you.

These tips and a little bit of help from the Sales Team at Professionals Yarra Valley with offices in Warburton & Yarra Junction and you will be ready to become a proud owner of your first home.
