Buying a home is usually one of the best financial moves you can make -- but there are plenty of pitfalls and mistakes to watch out for. Your success will all depend on the homework you do ahead of time. And in this current economy, the most successful home buyers will be the ones who understand exactly how the rules of buying Austin real estate has changed.
Join us on for LivingInAustin.com's free Homebuyers' Seminar, The New Rules of Buying Austin Real Estate , from 1 to 3pm at Austin Community College.
In just two hours, we'll cover:
- NEW RULES. What worked before for Austin homebuyers won't necessarily work again in this turbulent economy. Learn the new rules and strategies designed to make your next home buying experience much less stressful. No matter what happens with the stock market, using these simple new rules when buying a home can keep you far away from potential trouble later on.
- BEST NEIGHBORHOODS. Which Austin-area neighborhoods are the best investments? Are there certain areas that could appreciate in a "down" economy more than others? Find out where we think the next "boom" areas of Austin are.
- FREE GOVERNMENT MONEY. The state of Texas has millions of dollars set aside for qualified first-time home buyers. If you'd rather not make a down payment or come up with thousands in closing costs, the Texas bond program could be the answer. Find out who qualifies and how it works.
THE TRUTH ABOUT "ZERO DOWN." Can you really buy a house with zero down payment? What's the "catch"?
- COMMON MISTAKES. What are the most common mistakes Austin home buyers make, and how can you avoid them?
- CREDIT CURES. What simple steps can you take that will greatly improve your credit score - which in turn will help you secure the absolute lowest home loan interest rates?
- HOME BUYING CHECKLIST. Doing just a few simple things ahead of time can take a huge amount of stress from the home buying process. There are also a few things you should NOT do before buying a home.
We'll cover some critically important and timely information that could save you from all sorts of home buying headaches down the road. For those who have attended our seminar before, please note the subject matter covered in this class has been updated to reflect current trends in the Austin real estate market.
