There are 5 basic and highly

important steps in the initial

buying process. Don't skip

these! In fact, don't bother

starting the process without

doing these steps first.

1. Start saving for your downpayment. I'm sure you've been doing this but do you know how much you need to have?

You need to save a minimum of at least 5% to 20% of the cost of the home.

2. Do you know what your credit score is? You must know what that is. My advice? Get your own credit report from either Transunion, Equifax, Credit Karma or Borrowell. Find out what's going on. You can't have bad credit in your life and expect to get a great property without complications.

3. Have you ever checked out a mortgage calculator? You should, get to know your general (but not guaranteed) numbers just to give you a rough idea of where you may stand. There are tons of mortgage calculators out there.

Here is a few, take your pick:

4. Now that you know your numbers, it's time to get a pre-written approval from a great mortgage broker to truly tell you what you are actually approved for.
