PLAN AHEAD WHEN LOOKING INTO BUYING A HOUSE OR INVESTMENT PROPERTY 

Are you looking to buy property in your local area of somewhere further afield? Buying a house or an investment property is a huge commitment and adequate planning is necessary to ensure a stress free journey. It's important to recognise the lifestyle you lead and the amenities you require to lead a fulfilling life at a new property.

You might love to cook, so you'll need a great kitchen or if you enjoy gardening, you'll want a nice backyard. Perhaps you own several cars and need a spacious garage or you want a home office to work from. There are all kinds of important factors to consider when you want to buy property and it makes sense to consider this now, and for further down the track.

Thankfully, the whole process of buying a house or an investment property is made easier by the professional help ONEAGENCY COASTWIDE can offer you. Once you have an idea of which factors will contribute to finding your ideal property, our experienced real estate agents can help you shape your property goals and find the right match.

When looking to buy property, establish your budget accurately

You might be wondering how much you can afford when you're looking for property to buy. Establishing how much you can afford before you begin the search for your ideal property will allow you to avoid the upset of falling in love with a house that's unobtainable.

By gaining pre-approval for a home loan, you can set out what you're willing to spend and show potential sellers that you're serious. Understanding how much you can afford is the first rule of home buying and that depends on your income and how much debt you may have.

At ONEAGENCY COASTWIDE, we have thousands of qualified real estate agents who are ready to help you work out your budget, answer questions, give professional advice and handle much of the real estate transaction on your behalf.
