TO FIND AN OPEN HOUSE IN GLENVIEW IL   NORTHBROOK IL OR  MORTON GROVE IL

As 2016 begins, New Year’s resolutions are finalized and implemented. They most always include a financial goal or two, and real estate can help you meet those financial goals, as well as other personal goals.

These real estate specific resolutions can help you get on your way to a happy and prosperous 2016, and beyond:

I’ll be a First-Time Homebuyer
Ready to jump in for the first time? If so, you’ll need a great Realtor, a timeline, a wish list of what you want, a down payment and an idea as to your budget to know how much home you can afford. Spend time putting together a strategic plan and you can be a homeowner in 2016!

I’ll save Up for a Down Payment
Maybe you’re not ready to dive into homeownership. A good place to begin as we enter the New Year is to come up with a savings plan so you will have the money to cover a down payment and closing costs for the home of your dreams. It might take all year, or more than a year, but now’s the time to start.

I’ll Live in a New Neighborhood/City
In 2016, you could be moving into that special neighborhood you’ve been eyeballing.  Whether it’s on the east side, the west side, or another city altogether, now is a great time to make a move.  And, with home values increasing, real estate is a good investment.

I’ll Buy an Investment Property
Investment properties are a great way to meet your short or long-term financial goals. Owning an investment property can provide a stream of income through rents, vacation rentals, or even just pay for itself while you own the property with plans for selling at a later date.

I’ll Shop for a Vacation Home
Do you love vacationing at a certain spot every year but despise the high cost of hotel rooms? Or maybe you want a place where the whole family can stay? 2016 might just be your year to get that beach or mountain home you’ve always wanted.

I’ll Downsize
Is it time for a smaller home? It might be time to move from a big suburban house to a smaller place in a city or beach setting – or stay in your area but get a smaller home with less property to maintain.

If you’re ready to set some real estate resolutions, please give me a call. I’m here to help you make 2016 your best year yet!

Thank You and Have a Great Day
