If you are buying a new home on a tight budget, one of the options that will come to your attention is purchasing a condominium or townhome instead of a standard single family home.

Even though it's just January, it's never to early to start preparing for the Boston real estate Spring Market whether you are a home buyer, or looking to sell.

Setting a budget for your home purchase is an important decision. You need to know how much you can afford each month and translate that into the amount you can afford to take out on your new mortgage

No matter where I go, people always ask me two questions, "How's the market?" and "Is now the right time to buy a home?" My answers are always the same not because I'm being a salesmen, but because I'm telling the truth when I say, "Great, interested buyers are buying and sellers are selling."

You probably have spent a good deal of time considering how much space you need inside your home, but what about how much space you need on the outside of it?

As you begin looking for a home to purchase, you will start to come across houses that have a homeowners association. This is an association made up of the people who own homes in the area, created to help maintain certain standards in the community.

If you have children, or even if you dont yet but plan to in the future, schools are something you will need to take into consideration when you search for a new home.

Everyone heads out to look at potential homes with a list of the things they want in a house, and a list of the things they definitely do not want.

When you start shopping for a home, you probably have a very specific image of what you would like that home to look like. You probably also see the perfect neighborhood surrounding that perfect home.
