Buying Tips

At A.E. Gibson & Co, we know how exciting it is to buy a home. At the same time, the event can be a daunting experience if you don’t have sound knowledge and understanding of everything that’s involved.

The most important tips for buying property:

Organise your finance: Speak with an independent and licensed mortgage broker when determining your loan options and remember there are other costs to consider incl. legal fees, building reports, stamp duty if applicable, mortgage insurance, moving costs, property valuation and insurance.

Understand the market: Are you in a Buyer’s Market, Seller’s Market or balanced Market. Each market has it’s own characteristics, learn which phase the market is in and what that means for the properties on sale.

There are many things to consider from understanding the real estate market in the area you are interested in, the search process, inspecting properties, finding the right property, making offers, bidding at auction, securing finance and finally settlement.
