Before you even decide to go house shopping, a good idea would be to make a list of what you are looking for in your dream house. Take a pen and paper, and start writing, how many square footages, how many bathrooms, how many bedrooms? Modern Times Homes has been buying and selling Rockford (and surrounding area) properties for a long time, and we helped a lot of homeowners find their dream house.
If you have been pre-approved for a loan, you know what you can afford. Start by searching Zillow for houses in the area you are interested in buying, and check what there is that you can afford. Know exactly what you want. We all have different dreams. For some people a big dream house would be one with 2,400 sq ft; and for others a big dream house is at least 5,000sqft.
What is the style of the house you are dreaming of? Is it a one story, range house? Or maybe two stories? Are you looking to buy an older house and renovate it the way you want it? Or are you looking to buy a fully remodeled house? If you are planning to do it yourself, do you have enough savings for renovations? Maybe research how much everything costs.
Once you will figure out what it is that you are looking to buy, find a good real estate agent that would help you find that dream house of yours.
