CHARLOTTETOWN, PE, CANADA, November 16, 2010
Ask anyone who's ever bought a home and they'll tell you it's not always cut and dry and hassle-free. Carol O'Hanley and Steve Yoston are a husband and wife team of Charlottetown real estate agents with Coldwell Banker Parker Realty, and they've written a guide for home buyers in Prince Edward Island that will help make the buying process go much more smoothly. How to Buy Your Dream Home: An easy step-by-step process for home buyers in Prince Edward Island is being released today and is available as a free download."We pride ourselves on being very good working with first-time home buyers, but no matter how much time we take to explain how the process works we find that sometimes it becomes a case of information overload and some of the important details don't get absorbed," says O'Hanley. She adds, "That's why we decided to put together a guide that a home buyer can read before they start looking for homes to learn how the process really works."
How to Buy Your Dream Home includes many details including what a mortgage broker does, understanding the importance of a home inspection, the deal with land transfer tax, choosing a real estate agent, and how much money you should have in the bank before you ever start looking for a home.
"After someone downloads this e-book, they'll be armed with the information every home buyer should have before they start looking at homes," says Yoston. He explains, "When we start working with a new buyer, we want them to complete a few steps before we go ahead and start scheduling showings. That's what we hope to accomplish with this e-book—that more buyers will be fully prepared before they start the process, not only making it smoother but avoiding a lot of possible disappointment as well."
