Homebuyer
Tips
From Catherine Mitchell, The Intentional Realtor®™,
There is nothing
like the feeling of spending your first night in your first home
The
lifelong dream for many Americans is the dream of homeownership. Not just any home, but preferably their dream
home. When that dream becomes reality,
it can be an exhilarating feeling of accomplishment. One that is celebrated with the thrill of
spending the first night in their very first home.
Your first home
Imagine
the feeling of turning the key and opening the door to your very own home for
the very first time. The nervous energy
from the thought of knowing that this property with all its intricate beauty is
yours to decorate however you please.
The thought of cooking in your very own kitchen or the thought of
sleeping in your very own master bedroom with the peace of mind of knowing that
you are no longer paying rent, but instead building equity. The feeling of “I made it, life is good.” That’s the feeling that millions of Americans
have experienced thought out the years.
It’s that feeling of homeownership, that feeling of pride.
Your first night
All though
the thought of owning your own home is virtually every American’s dream, that
first night in your home has the possibility of being filled with chaos and
confusion. After a day of moving in,
it’s very unlikely that you’ll get everything unpacked in a single day. You’ll probably be so exhausted from the move
that for the first couple of nights your belongings may still be in boxes. You may want to think about eating out or
ordering a pizza on your first night because your kitchen may not be fully set
up to your liking, or you’re just too tired from the move to cook. Then there’s the reality that your bed may
not be set up, so you may have to improvise when it comes to your sleeping
arrangements like sleeping on mattress as it lies on the floor or maybe even
sleeping in a sleeping bag as if you’re having a sleepover. Yes moving in your own home for the very
first time can be filled with excitement and joy, but it can also be chaotic
and exhausting.
Homeowner
As you try
and sleep in your home on that very first night, the thought of “I’m a
homeowner” will eventually sink in. You
may lay there for a while, and you may think about what it took for you to get
to this moment. You may think about your
old apartment or better yet your favorite apartment. Then you may think about the steps that it
took for you to get your credit up to par or better yet to maintain your
credit. Finally you may think about the
job that affords you the opportunity to live in a place that you can now call
home, as the phrase, “I’m a homeowner” finally sinks in with pride.
