This is a great question for anyone that is thinking of buying a home in South Chandler. The first question to ask yourself is do you like the area you are living in now or would you like to switch neighborhoods? Once you have answered that then you will know if you need to start doing research to buy a home or if you are ready to ask your South Chandler Realtor to start searching in your current area for homes.

If you want to switch neighborhoods, the best thing to do is to drive around and write down which sections of South Chandler you like. Then you should go to the Buyer’s Advisory and check out anything that is important to you like crime statistics, sex offenders, school ratings, and even information like airport noise and zoning issues like is there going to be a grocery store nearby?

Once you have decided that yes, you do want to buy a home then you need to get pre-qualified by a South Chandler lender. This will help you know how much home you can afford and how comfortable you will be with the monthly payments. I have many lenders you can talk to but two great lenders are Lee Lieberman with FT Financial and Mari Corso with Homeowners Financial Group.

Once they have pre-qualified, then you can have your South Chandler Realtor start searching for your next home to buy. Questions you should consider are:

How many bedrooms do you need vs. want? You may say 4 but in reality 3 and a den will do. This might limit your search if say only 4 bedrooms.

Do you prefer single level or two stories?

Do you need a 3 car garage or is it more a luxury?

Are you a person that uses a formal living and dining room or does a great room fit your lifestyle?

Do you want a pool and are you ready for the commitment of maintaining it or would you hire a pool cleaning service?

Are you a person that likes to do house projects (fixer upper) or would a move in ready home be more to your liking?

After you have thought about these questions, go out and have fun home hunting in South Chandler. It should be an enjoyable and exciting adventure when finding a home, not a torturous one.
