Resolution for 2014--Buy a First Home! (And a Class to Help You too!)

Did you make a new year's resolution? 

Maybe it was to workout more, eat healthier, be happy or spend more time with friends and family. Or maybe you resolved that 2014 is going to be the year to buy YOUR first home

What a great decision! Owning a home is still the American Dream and with housing affordability in the Minneapolis/St Paul area, this can be a very realistic aspiration. Home ownership is not just for older, wealthy Americans. People of all ages can afford to be homeowners in the Midwest. In fact, many young people are buying homes in today's market.

In 2013, I sold several starter homes to people just a few years out of high school. The homes these clients purchased were in all cases, move in ready, solid houses in the north and/or east metro. It is not unusual to find a nice home in a price range that makes owning a home as affordable as rent if you know where and how to look for them.

Intrigued? Wondering what is the first step to buying your DREAM home?  

Find a REALTOR® you can trust! 

As an agent, I help my first time buyers through the entire home buying process from pre-approval until closing day. But, it would be hard to trust someone without having met in person.  Give me a call and we can set up a meeting. I am very easy to talk to so call me anytime.
