Buying home is not easy, lot of thinking and reasoning should be done before buying a house. The first decision one should take is whether to buy a house or rent it owning a house gives a sense of pride and we can furnish according to our choice.

Having taken a decision to buy a home there are many steps that are to be taken in definite order so that we may not get cheated and end up making a wrong choice .we should check our finances and make a decision either to buy a house in the city or its suburbs.

Quite often the houses in the suburbs are cheaper than the houses in the cities. Living in cities means shorter distances to workplace and recreational centers like parks, malls and theatres. Often the houses in cities near roads are noisy if one is sensitive to the noise may deprive him of his sleep. The houses in the suburbs are comparatively peaceful and one may have to travel long distances for workplace and recreational centers.

Having made the choice between suburbs and the cities one should make a choice about buying the type of house as many types of houses are available in the market. There are single houses, apartments, town houses and big mansions are available for purchasing. In an apartment we cannot change the exteriors and these governed by associations.

There are many advantages of living in an apartment, the exteriors the commonplaces, their repairs and maintenance is taken care of by the associations. Many recreational facilities like swimming pool, gymnasium, jogging tracks, and sports room may be provided in the apartments and the care and maintenance is taken care by association.

Single houses and mansions often the houses are separated and we can furnish the exteriors and the interiors according to our choice. There is more privacy these houses are costlier than other type of houses.

Having made the choice about type of the house we should contact the property agent of repute who will represent our interests often these people represent the seller and are interested in their own commissions. He will show us many houses and one may get confused about making a choice. One good idea is to take a digital camera and photograph the houses. The photographs may be reviewed at home for making the correct choice. Alternately professional’s help should be taken for inspection of the house. Finance could be arranged by pre approved or pre qualified mortgage of the house.

Initially seller makes an agreement to sell the house and the buyer deposits some money with him. On the closing day the buyer makes the full payment and obtains the key of the house and gets ownership of the house transferred in his name.
