How To Make First-Time Homebuying A Success

As you embark on the first-time homebuying journey, there are going to be a lot of anxious times ahead. The first step is to get pre-approved for a mortgage. This is a big chunk of time and paperwork to go through but once approved, you’ll be armed with the confidence of being able to make an offer on a home and having that offer backed up with the loan. That is going to be very appealing to the seller. After the loan is approve, you can go shopping with a realistic range. Here’s what you should consider to make this process a success:

architecture-1836070_1280

Location

Everyone starts the home buying process with location. You want to live in a good neighborhood. Nothing wrong with that but if you are focused on one specific neighborhood, then you’re narrowing your choices. Also, if this is a popular neighborhood, then there is going to be a lot of competition for houses. What about looking at an adjacent neighborhood. The best thing you could to is find a home in an up and coming neighborhood. Get in early and watch how the value of your home will increase when where you’re living becomes the next “hot spot.”

Space

You’re buying a home to move into in a few weeks but you’re also buying a home that you’re going to be living in for several years. A couple with a family already knows how many bedrooms they’re going to need. What if you’re a couple who is planning to have a family? Then you should plan for the space to make things comfortable. You could move into a house with a few extra bedrooms that sit empty for the first year. They can always be “activated.” As the saying goes, “it is better to have and not need than to need and not have.”

Layout

When considering the layout of a home you’re getting into more of the specifics of what you want/need. Stairs is a consideration for the future. If you think that you might be having a parent move in with you, will they be able to manage stairs? Believe it or not, many people by homes without stairs simply to accommodate pets.

Storage

Storage is a big factor for a home and it’s the one thing that gets filled up the fastest. If the closets aren’t big, you could consider expanding them with renovations. It will also help know you won’t be bringing a lot of clutter from your old home with you. That is where Junk King Pittsburgh can step in and make a big difference. As you pack for your home, you can “tag” a lot of items for a Junk King pick up. That disposal will mean less going on the moving truck for your big move and that’s always a good thing. Getting rid of junk and rubbish before you move is what Junk King Pittsburgh is all about. Make that part of your first-time homebuying success

Getting Ready For Back-To-School

Is everybody in your home ready for back-to-school? We know mom and dad are excited! Getting ready for back-to-school is going to take some planning and adjustments. Here is some good advice on how to make that happen.

Practice the Route

If the first day of school will be at a new school, then you’ll want to practice the route. It will help to drive this route at the same time of day they you might be making the drop off. This will give you better sense of just how much time is needed. For younger children, this is also the time to have the talk about “stranger danger.”

Introduce Yourself to the Teachers

Whether it is before the first day or at orientation, it is important that you meet your child’s teacher. It will help to find out how they like to communicate. Most teachers have emails but just remember they also have several classes and dozens of children. It might not always be a rapid response.

Get Back Into the Homework Habit

For success with homework, your student needs a quiet place in the home for them to focus. If that means the dining room table, then all TVs have to be off. Cell phones should be turned off, too. If you see early on that your kid is struggling with their assignments, then put in a request to meet with teacher to work out a plan. You don’t have to wait for that first parent/teacher conference.

Get Back on a School Sleeping Schedule

Things might have gotten a bit loose over the summer with regard to bedtimes but now that school is gearing up, it is time to set the clocks. That includes “lights out” and wake up. You might want to start practicing these new times a week before back-to-school.

Declutter

Not only should the designated homework zone be free of clutter but also your kid’s closets and dressers. There are probably a lot of clothes that can tossed out because they no longer fit. There might also be some bedding, games, books and electronics that have also been updated. All of that unwanted clutter can be turned over to Junk King Pittsburgh for fast removal. Don’t worry about those things going to waste. Junk King makes drop offs at charities part of their weekly routes. You’re going to like how a decluttering session with Junk King Pittsburgh is going to be a big help with back-to-school prep.

They want to use up as little space as possible and that will also mean a good price for you.
