Find a qualified Real Estate agent
The misconception a lot of consumers have is that they need to call the listing agent of the property they are looking at (name on the sign). NOT TRUE! You can work with any agent for any home you look at in the area. It is highly recommended you work with ONE agent that understands what your needs and requirements are. It is important to establish a good working relationship with your Real Estate agent and give them details as to what your needs and requirements in a home are. Communicate to the agent that you have been pre-qualified and for how much. A professional agent will help streamline your searches to homes in your price range with the features you need.
