Jason's tips on buying:

• Select a buyer's agent, experienced and trained specifically in helping buyers, to represent your interests.
• Prioritize what you want in a home, and discuss your list with your buyer's agent.
• Realize that there are no "perfect" homes. Be realistic.
• Get pre-approved. When your financing plan is prepared before you look, you can act quickly once you find the home you want. Your buyer's agent can help you prepare.
• Based on your pre-approved financing plan, decide on a price range.
• Establish a time frame for finding a home and closing the sale. This helps you stay focused.
• Beware of so-called "bargain" homes that may be reduced from extravagant overpricing. Your buyer's agent can guide you around pitfalls.
• Discuss each home as you go along, explaining your likes and dislikes to your buyer's agent.
• Beware of "well-intentioned advice" - from relatives, friends, etc. - that can distract you from what you truly want.
• Some listings will be genuine good values at the listed price. Be ready to act.
• Some listings will be overpriced. You have to decide if you wish to make an offer at a lower price.
• If you do make a lower offer, remember that the seller might be angered and then refuse to negotiate seriously with you. Experience is invaluable in property negotiations - get help from your buyer's agent.
• When you find the "right house," be ready to act quickly. "Thinking it over overnight" might mean losing it to the buyer who thought about it yesterday.
• If you need approval to buy from someone else (parent, boss, banker, etc.), ask these people to do preliminary looking with you. It will save time.
• Decide if you want a warranty on the property. Discuss with your buyer's agent.
• If you need expert advice, we recommend the use of real estate appraisers, structural engineers and property inspectors - they are qualified, unbiased professionals.
• It's normal to experience "buyer's remorse" a few days after signing a contract. If you've done your homework and talked openly, that "remorse" will be short-lived.
• Discuss in detail the closing process, making sure you understand your obligations. If in doubt, ask your buyer's agent for help.
