Buyer's Checklist
First Time Buyer Check List
Buying your first home is exciting and sometimes daunting. Purchasing a New Home from a reliable home builder, like McMillin Homes, makes a number of steps in the purchase process much easier. Our sales counselors are trusted folks who want to make the new home buying process as easy as possible for you.
From picking the right home, choosing options and finding a loan that fits your budget, your McMillin Sales Counselor is there for you.
- Make a wish list of your wants and needs.
o Neighborhoods desired
o Square footage
o Garage and storage space
o Number of bedrooms and baths
o Lot size
o Proximity to schools, shops and transportation - Review your credit history. This helps you in fixing any potential problems in your credit past, making you more competitive for a broader range of home finance solutions.
- Talk with a McMillin loan officer and get pre-qualified. This will let you focus on how much of a home you can afford. Your Sales Counselors can also help you with this. A completed pre-qualification from McMillin Mortgage streamlines the home finding period and give you negotiating power.
- Spend time in the neighborhoods you would like to live. Visit both during the day and evening as well as different days of the week to get a strong sense of the community. Some communities offer more amenities than others.
- Talk to your Sales Counselor about the various options available on particular models. Determine what you can afford to add and make sure you fit your home to your budget.
