Things to take care of prior to buying real estate

Before venturing to buy the particular property for sale settled on it is advisable to put your offer into writing on a printed form referred to as a Real Estate Purchase Contract. It is the real estate agent concerned who will have blank copies of such form. You can secure it from the person and he/she may fill in the form for you as is usually the practice. It is important that this offer/contract prepared states just what you want to buy and how much you propose to pay for it.

It is to be borne in mind that once the prepared offer is signed by you and is accepted by the seller it becomes a binding contract. So, seeking advice from a lawyer may be a wise thing to do prior to signing. Alongside, you can take some other measures too before you sign the contract

- Saving (keeping a record of) any advertisements regarding the sale of the property being purchased by you.

- Checking out the house for structural defects preferably by hiring the services of an expert.

- Verifying any zoning or building restrictions and finding out the amount of property taxes on the real estate.

- Making the offer in such a way that it becomes subject to fulfillment of certain conditions included that offers protection to you.

- Including any personal property (items that are not attached to property like appliances) that you wish to be included in the offer helps thereby adding their prices to the purchase price.

- Getting estimates of the costs (in addition to the purchase price) that will be incurred by you. This can be obtained from the realtor, the lawyer or the new mortgage lender.

- Including a time limit on acceptance by seller in the offer.
