PLAN AHEAD WHEN LOOKING INTO BUYING A PROPERTY 

Are you looking to buy property in your local area of somewhere further afield?

Is the property for you to live in? Or are you looking for an investment property?

Either way, it's a huge commitment and adequate planning is necessary.

If you are planning to live in the property, it's important to recognise the lifestyle you lead and the amenities you require to lead a fulfilling life.

You might love to cook, so you'll need a great kitchen or if you enjoy gardening, you'll want a nice backyard. Perhaps you own several cars and need a spacious garage or you want a home office to work from.

There are all kinds of important factors to consider now, and for further down the track.

Thankfully, this whole process is made easier by the professional help ONEAGENCY COASTWIDE can offer you.

We can help you shape your property goals and find the right match.

Whether you want an apartment, house, townhouse, semi-detached home, investment property or somewhere to holiday and retire in, we're here to help. Take a look below at what our friendly agents can help you with and when you're ready to talk to us, contact your local ONEAGENCY COASTWIDE office.

When you're looking for a property, we can help you:

• Learn about local schools, hospitals, shopping facilities and more in a neighbourhood you're interested in
• Navigate the complex planning involved in buying and selling a property simultaneously
• Purchasing a second home, holiday house or retirement home (in addition to your first property)
• Navigate through purchasing your first home by giving you the support to cut expenditure, stop paying interest and build your equity

When looking to buy property, establish your budget accurately

You might be wondering how much you can afford when you're looking for property to buy.

Establishing how much you can afford and setting your price limits before you begin the search for your ideal property will allow you to avoid the upset of falling in love with a house that's unobtainable. This is the first rule of home buying and your personal "affordability" will depend on your income and how much debt you may have.

By gaining pre-approval for a home loan, you can be in the driving seat, with the confidence to put timely offers forward to sellers that show you're serious and ready to buy now.

At ONEAGENCY COASTWIDE, we have qualified real estate agents who are ready to help you work out your budget, answer questions, give professional advice and handle much of the real estate transaction on your behalf.

If you'd like to take the stress out of buying a house or an investment property, contact us today on 4365 4898.
