When you are working with a real estate agent to find a home, it is very important that you take the time to discuss the full range of your housing and financing options. Your real estate agent wants to understand your criteria and your expectations. Be very clear about the features you want in a home, describing what elements are essential to you and where you are willing to compromise.

When you start looking at homes, you may find that the available homes in your price range require much more of a financial commitment than you were prepared to make. Let your agent know if you are willing to consider alternative mortgage options to increase your buying power. Discuss the possibilities for buying in an area you had not previously considered. Would you consider a house with the same amenities in a different neighborhood, a "handyman special", a smaller yard or fewer bedrooms? An open mind and honest communication are crucial ingredients as you work with your real estate agent to find the best possible home for your needs.
