East Texas Homes

There is nothing more descriptive of the fulfillment of the American dream than owning your own home. Getting to the point in your life where purchasing a piece of East Texas real estate is possible takes time, responsibility, and lots of hard work. But in the end, when those closing documents have been signed and the seller turns over the keys, everything you have done to get there is worth it. If you’ve been thinking about buying a home, then take advantage of the buyer’s market that exists today.

Tyler Texas and East Texas Real Estate Agencies

The first step toward owning a piece of East Texas real estate is getting preapproval for a home loan. This will make you a qualified buyer and streamline the process once you do find a home you are interested in. Most sellers won’t even consider accepting an offer unless you submit a preapproval letter, so this is a vital first step.

When you’ve gotten that taken care of, you should take some time finding an experienced East Texas real estate agent. You don’t have to rely solely on your agent to find and show you properties, but you will need their expertise when it comes time to make a deal. They will also have access to information on homes that you will not and will be happy to share this information with you.

Then start browsing the selection of East Texas real estate that is available. You may find the perfect home right away, or it may take weeks. Either way, try not to get emotionally invested in any property until it is your name on the deed.

Tyler TX Home MLS Search

Tyler TX MLS

While it is wise to find a good real estate agent for your Tyler, Texas home search, sometimes it helps to conduct your own property search. Realtors can help you find homes that you may not normally have access to and let you know when a new home hits the market that matches your criteria before it shows up on MLS search results. However, no matter how in tune your realtor is to you, they will never be you and therefore cannot know with certainty whether a particular home is something you would be interested in or not.

In order to find your perfect home, help your realtor along a little. Provide him or her with a clear description of the type of home you are searching for, but keep an eye out yourself just in case something becomes available that doesn’t fit in with the description you gave. There are many, many ways to conduct a Tyler, Texas home search, but one of the best resources can be found at http://www.tylertxhomesearch.com/.

Using a website such as this one will allow you to search available listings based on several criteria. You can select a price range in which to search so that you aren’t falling in love with homes that are out of your budget. Additionally, you may specify how many bedrooms and bathrooms you’d like, as well as if you’d prefer to have amenities such as a fireplace or pool and whether you are interested in waterfront property.

Coldwell Banker

September 14th, 2010

We have been living in a small apartment for a while and felt like it was about time to look into what it took to move into a house of our own. We had seen a couple houses in the Whitehouse area with a sign in the front yard for Coldwell Banker United Realtors. I had decided to go ahead and call about the houses to see how much we needed and to talk to someone about the process. I had called the office of “the Judy Kunzman team” and talked to Paula Crouch. I was pretty confused on what to do first and where to start. Paula Crouch was really understanding helped me get the process started. I expressed to her my price range and how big of a house we wanted. We need a house that is at least three bedrooms and it is very important to us to have a nice yard. Above all of that I wanted to be sure that we lived in a safe neighborhood.

After calling all different lending firms, for information about getting pre-approved for a loan, we had a chance to meet Paula Crouch and she showed us around a couple houses. The houses that she showed us were perfect. Both of the houses were clearly in our price range and they had gated back yards. Both of the houses were in the same safe neighborhood. Most of the people in the neighborhood also had small children. Paula was very honest with us and she showed us the good things about the houses but she expressed the concerns that she had about both houses.

We ended up running into some issues with our apartment contract and with getting the loan that we originally wanted. Paula Crouch was very understand with our situation. Although we decided to wait for a few months to buy a house, we will definitely call up Paula Crouch to help us find the perfect home for our family.
