Home ownership has always been part of the American Dream. Because of that, many people start their home search without considering the benefits or risks. If you are contemplating buying a home, you should know and review the advantages & challenges of the investment decision you are about to make and all that comes with it before signing on the dotted line.

Once you’ve found the right home, it’s time to get serious! That means submitting an offer and signing a contract agreement with the sellers.  Recently about one-third of homes nationwide sold in less than 30 days. Homebuyers are having a tough time simply making offers before their potential dream homes are snatched up by other buyers.
