Buying a home in Austin, Texas

Tips for first-time home buyers

 
We strongly suggest that you partner with a Realtor® and are well prepared before you begin the search for a new home. Knowledge is power when it comes to securing your finances, finding the right home, negotiating home prices, keeping up with current interest rates, and interviewing mortgage lenders. The more information Austin Absolute Realty and you can gather before you start shopping, the more likely you will secure your investment.

What's on your list?  Think back to the last time you set out to accomplish a major goal. You may have created tasks to guide you...checking boxes or scratching through accomplishments to re-assess or reach your goal. Austin Absolute Realty suggests the same determination when buying a new home. Creating a logically sequenced checklist will be extremely helpful in your journey.
 

Austin Absolute Realty wants to make sure you have thought of everything

  • Walk you through the mortgage pre-approval - How much home can I afford?
  • Speak to neighborhood and home amenities - Do I need a fence around that pool?  What are the benefits of a kitchen island? Do I want the window treatments upgraded?  Can we convert from a septic system to the city water system?
  • Answer your questions on local Austin school districts and educational programs - How far is the school from the house? Are there any private schools in the area? What summer programs are available for my children in this area?
  • Provide realistic views on Austin transportation - How far is the hospital? How much time do you need to get to work, or pick up your children from school on a busy day?
  • Help you determine the house and area that fits you and your family - Should I go with a two-story or one-story? What is a bungalow? Should I live in North Austin or South Austin?
  • Show you homes or sites that fit in your criteria and financial budget - What kind of upgrades am I eligible for? What will my new home be worth in two years?
