As a first-time buyer, it’s ok to come to the process with questions. After all, with a home you’re making a major purchase—investing in a house and its location. Geoff Smith, associate broker with RE/MAX On the Bay, offered examples of questions you’ll consider:

“When financing, how much money (cash) will you need to put down? What issues should you look for when you’re viewing houses? What buyer protections are in place in the purchase contract? And what other expenses come with home ownership aside from a mortgage? Your Realtor can help you find the answers to these and other questions that come up along the way.”
