National Open House is THIS weekend April 28th & 29th

This was provided by Cardinal Realty, Homebuilders & Remodeling, a local, family owned business-your community real estate expert for over 50 years.

Here are some buyer tips for making the most of the weekend:

 1.       Get pre-approved-before looking to determine your price range, you don’t want to have heart ache if you find a home you love only to find you can’t qualify to purchase it.

2.       Determine desired location-this should be your focus, you can always remodel a home but you can’t pick it up and move it.

3.       Narrow search to 5 homes-this will help limit your overload and maximize your time during the open house hours.

4.       Pros and cons-take notes, this will help jog your memory later when you get home
