FEBRUARY 2000 - DAILY TIMES CHRONICLE • THE STONEHAM INDEPENDENT • WILMINGTON/TEWSKBURY TOWN CRIERS PAGE 15 Real Estate questions made simple By FRANK WEST How do I find a realtor? First, talk to friends or fam- ily that have recently pur- chased a home and ask who as- sisted them in the process. Next, visit open houses and talk to the realtor on duty. See how they show the property they are representing, and see if you are comfortable with this person. Keep in mind that the sales associate may be busy with other customers as well, but see if their professionalism and their attitude match your expectations.

What should I look for in a realtor? Look for someone you can trust. Keep in mind that roost realtors work for the seller but owe the buyer an ethical obli- gation to be fair and honest throughout the transaction. You may need to interview several realtors before finding (From Page 4) show their facility.

Have the realtor you have chosen show you listing sheets or a summary page on every property in your price range, not just the ones they want to show you. Avoid realtors that will just show you homes at the top of your price range and try to show you more expensive homes than you are comfortable seeing. The professional you choose should be knowledgeable about not just the home you are looking for, but amenities in the area such as schools, shopping, highways and others that may be important to you. Look for someone whom you feel can not only assist you but someone you can comfortably recommend to your friends in the future. How important is getting pre-approved for a mortgage In today's market, many sellers are receiving multiple offers on their homes. They are looking for not just the best price for their property, but the most secure deal. Sellers see the pre-approved buyer as one who is serious about purchasing their home and has had a lending institution review their eligibility to purchase their home. I This is opposed to buyers who have yet to visit a bank or mortgage company and may have credit issues that reduce their ability to purchase the same property. Also, the pre-approval can aid the buyers or sellers in achieving a quicker closing as the lending institution has al- ready spent the time investi- gating the buyers. When do we tell the landlord we're moving? Most people suggest waiting until the buyers have received a letter of commitment from the lending institution. This is issued after the pre-approval and is evidence that the lending institution feel confident in giving the loan. If there are outstanding con- ditions in the commitment letter, you may want to wait until they are cleared up before notifying the landlord. Keep in mind that the landlord may begin looking for a new tenant immediately, and sign a new tenancy based on the current tenant's notifica- tion of leaving. When in doubt, ask your at- torney what to do. START YOUR ?&#,,., NEW LIFE IN YOUR A 'I NEW HOME Y BUY A HOME OR CONDO THROUGH WEST REAL ESTATE AND WE WILL PAY UP TO $200 FOR YOUR HOME INSPECTION*.
