You have decided to buy a house. That is great news! I am the right agent to help you in this process. At Comey and Shepherd, I work with many buyers every year and have special processes to help educate and advise you.
Purchasing a property is likely the largest financial decision you will ever make. If you are like most people, your purchase will include obligating yourself to mortgage debt. There is an increasing degree of complexity in both the purchase and financing process, and I can guide you through both of these as well as the closing. At Comey & Shepherd, we hire and employ only full-time agents, though our industry has many, many part-time agents.
There are many reasons to buy a home. Perhaps you are tired of paying rent and want to pay down your own mortgage rather than that of your landlord. You may have simply outgrown your current home and desire to move to larger quarters. You may be interested in purchasing investment property and becoming a landlord yourself. You may want to move to a different part of town, more urban or more suburban. You may desire to shorten your commute to work. Having a clear sense of your reasons for buying will help you choose the right property.
Property ownership has historically been a solid investment; whether you are looking for your dream home, a rental property, or to expand an existing investment portfolio. Owning real estate is one of the least risky ways to build equity or to obtain a greater return on your initial investment.
