Great thing Betty sent me the 7 must-do\'s before buying a home video, Amber thought to herself. I almost made some big mistakes she said under her breath. Amber is buying a home this year. Like millions of people in home buying mode, she turned to sites like Zillow, Realtor, Redfin, etc... saw a home she liked and contacted an agent to go see the home. Amber chatted with the real estate agent and set a time to view the home. The agent asked Amber if she has a loan pre-approval letter to buy a house. What\'s that, she wondered... The agent recommended she chat with a great local loan officer to see what loan program is best for her and to get a loan pre-approval letter. The agent invited her to his office to meet up to review how to buy a house and to share some savvy home buying tips with her along with the home buying process steps. Amber agreed to meet the agent in a couple days. After they got off the phone she immediately called Betty. Betty said, congrats on deciding to buy a house. Would you like me to share with you what to know before buying a house for the first time with you? Amber said, girlfriend you know I\'m a first time home buyer and I\'m up for any home buying advice you want to share. That\'s the spirit, said Betty. A couple of the biggest house buying tips I quickly found out, are to find the best real estate agents who usually know great local loan officers to help out on the financing side of things, Betty said. How do you that asked Amber. When you\'re looking for an the best real estate agents you want to check online ratings, read their reviews, check their past performance to ensure they helped at least 12 families buy a home or sell a home in the past 12 months, along with any speciality designations the agent may have. The best of the best are a certified residential specialist (CRS) Betty said. Another good one is the accredited buyer\'s representative (ABR) designation. You get an agent that\'s a CRS and has an ABR... Wheeewww girlfriend... You\'ll definitely be working with the Top 3% of agents nationwide, Betty exclaimed. Such an agent will save you a lot of money, be a master of the home buying process, and you\'ll even have a lot of fun, Betty said with a smile. He\'s full to tips for buying a home too! I want one, I want one, Amber said excitedly. Hey, I\'ll help you out Amber. I\'ll introduce you to my agent, he\'s both and far more. Now he\'s my friend and trusted real estate adviser.
