Buying Your First Home
Start With What You Can Afford—Not With a Floor Plan
Buying your first home is exciting, but it's easy to begin in the wrong place.
Before choosing a home, start by determining a comfortable total monthly housing payment and overall project budget. Remember that your project may include more than the price of the home itself.
Depending on your situation, costs may include:
The home
Land
Site preparation
Foundation
Well and septic or utility connections
Driveway and access
Transportation and installation
Permits and inspections
Financing and closing costs
Garages, porches, decks and other improvements
Once you understand your budget, you can begin comparing manufactured and modular homes that realistically fit it.
If you already own land, the process may be different. Either way, Gary can help you understand the steps before you start spending money.
Good first step: Talk with Gary about your goals, budget and where you want to live.
