5 Things Every Home Buyer Should Know

6 is a good number

Great article! I appreciate the perspective offered in this article (and the others).

I often see home buyers get so caught up in the minute details that they lose perspective on the bigger picture. No one times the market perfectly and interest rates are historically fabulous whether you end up with 4.875% or 6.5%. If you are getting a good value on your home and you plan to stay put for 5-7 years (in our San Francisco real estate market), you will be in good shape!

Cheers,

Danielle Lazier, San Francisco Realtor
