Buy Confidently: Book Preview Chapter 1
If you have never purchased your own home before, how do you even know what questions to ask?
We have an answer for you. Our own Brett Wilde has captured many of his own experiences about things he wished he would have known when buying his first home.
Buy Confidently: Position To Win When Purchasing Your Home
Chapter 1: My History
Brett wanted to fulfill his dreams of home ownership. He had learned that real estate was a great way to build wealth. But where to begin? He was fresh out of college – no experience, no money, no credit. He was not even sure what first step to take.
An Opportunity:
Brett noticed a For Sale sign on the front lawn of a home on his way home from a college class. He eagerly inquired about it. The lady of the house gave him a purchase price and a very quick walk through. After only one hour of considering it (and a quick trip to the bank for a preapproval) he gave the homeowner $1000 earnest money check. She told him in just that hour, there had been another interested party, so the price was now $10,000 more.
Hear it from him,
“Was this for real? Could I trust her? Should I be getting some help?” He decided to go for it, and he put the home under contract immediately.
“‘I started asking around and telling a few trusted friends about my situation. They said ‘You didn’t do an inspection?’’’
Learn from Brett how he handled this situation. Did he walk away from this home and an unreliable seller? Did he purchase the home and live long and lavish in immediate wealth? You will have to pick up a copy and read it for yourself!
Stocks vs. Real Estate:
Also in Chapter 1, see how the value of owning a home is a stronger asset than the intangible ownership of stocks.
“Stocks are an intangible asset represented by a number value, while real estate is a tangible asset that yields rents as well as tax advantages.”
See how Brett pursued his dream of building wealth while other people paid his rent for him. You will also get to walk in his shoes so you don’t have to make the same mistakes he did.
