First-time homebuyers, don’t fall into this trap!
Sometimes, first-timers face trouble when buying a home because they’re trying to make it their last home (AKA their dream home).
That’s not what your first home is for though!
Buying your first home is your chance to set yourself up for real estate success. Your first home should allow you to build equity so you can afford your dream home down the line.
But building equity can be a challenge if you don’t ever buy that first home, or if you buy something way too expensive.
So make sure your first home is just that: a first home, not your dream home.
A great real estate agent can help you from falling into this common trap.
