Local Buyers
There are a lot of questions to be answered when preparing to buy a house. The most common question is whether to rent or to buy. This page will guide through some important questions.

Guide
How do you know when you are ready to buy a house? or upgrade? maybe downgrade? At Sandeep Singh Real Estate, I understand priorities change. And so do your housing needs.
Questions to consider
- Are you planning on any major life changes, like changing jobs or starting a family, in the next few years that could impact your financial situation?
- Can you commit to staying in a home for at least five years?
-
Do you have a stable income?
-
Are you confident you can handle house repairs (or can take the time to learn), or are you willing to pay a specialist when something breaks?
Buying vs Renting a home
Buying Benefits:
-
No landlord means you can make your house a home you want without anyone else’s approval.
-
Unlike rent payments, the interest you pay with your mortgage payments can be tax-deductible.
-
You can find a mortgage tailored to your budget and goals to keep your monthly payment from going up as the market changes.
Renting Benefits:
-
-
Your landlord is often responsible for home repairs and upgrades.
-
You won’t have to buy homeowners insurance or pay property taxes on your home.
-
Moving can be easier since you won’t have to sell your home or find renters.
-
