Michael Petruccelli says; Defining Search Parameters for a First-Time Home Buyer
Almost 80% of all home searches today begin
on the Internet. With just a few clicks of the mouse, home buyers can search
through hundreds of online listings, view virtual tours, and sort through
dozens of photographs and aerial shots of neighborhoods and homes. You've
probably defined your goals and have a pretty good idea of the type of home and
neighborhood you want. By the time you reach your real estate agent's office,
you are halfway to home ownership.
