Buying Your New Home

Homeownership is becoming a reality for more and more Americans. During 2000, the US homeownership rate reached 67.7%, the highest rate ever. Yet many Americans don't realize that homeownership is within their grasp.

A home is a financial asset and more: it's a place to live and raise children; it's a plan for the future; it's an investment in your community. That's why we at the American National Publishing Company want all Americans to have an opportunity to enjoy the benefits of owning a home. Our website will give you information concerning all aspects of homebuying whether you're buying your first home or you've been doing it for years. Our website can assist you in selecting a community and put you in touch with the real estate, mortgage and insurance professionals who will work hard to provide you with a worry-free move.


Selecting a Real Estate Professional to Assist You

The majority of real estate transactions take place with the assistance of a real estate agent and for good reason. Working with a professional real estate agent is the most efficient means of shopping for a home and can help make the homebuying process an easy, hassle-free experience.

A real estate professional:
  • Helps you assess your wants and needs to find the perfect match between what you can afford and the home that best suits your preferences.
  • Keeps your personal style in mind when selecting properties to show you.
  • Accesses all the properties for sale in your desired area by computer. "For Sale" signs and newspaper ads are not always a true reflection of everything that is on the market. Your real estate agent always knows what's available at any given time.
  • Negotiates for you. Once you have found the home you want to buy, your realtor will write up your offer and present it to the seller. This gives you the best opportunity to have your contract accepted.
  • Gets the right price. Your realtor is a specialist in your area and knows the market inside out so you will get the best price possible.
  • Allows you to make your own decision. A professional agent works for you and respects your opinions. He or she will not try to force you into a decision you don't feel comfortable with.
  • Protects your rights. Real estate laws have become increasingly complicated. Your real state agent is there to assist you as an informed expert in every way.
  • Doesn't charge you anything! Your real estate agent's services are absolutely free to you as a buyer. Their commission is paid by the seller.
