Not sure if I understood your question correctly, FFC was always our preference, it is ideal for our commutes, and schools were also an equal part in that decision making. LC was never an option for us for the sheer increase in commute times. | ||

Next rule, you control the decision making process, never ever ask agent what number can be put on the contract, you tell him what to put on the contract. First lo, teliyaka enta pettochu ani adugutam, vaadu vaadi interests choosukuney chance ichinattey. Naa first home buying lo ilaage ayyindi, agent was telling us to go much higher than what we were willing to put, I said absolutely no. Risk in this, you may not get the home, remember this is like an auction and someone else can outbid you. But, if your credit history is good and you are putting the right down payment, this is your market, sellers/banks will dance to your tune. | ||

Bunty kaka, Home Buying/Selling process lo, Seller gives up 6% of the sale price to agents, of which, buyers agent gets half and seller's agent gets half. Vaallaku vachina money lo agents share a portion with their clients. Maamooluga, 1% min. istaaru. Kontamandi 1.5% kooda istaaru. | ||

Congratulations Tammi. First and foremost, discus with your significant other what you are looking for, what budget, how much leeway you have on the price. You never know what you are going to like, and it gets really tempting. | ||

hmm i dont know how it works in US, but if you are busy and you know nothing about homes/construction etc, idi koncham tricky avutundi... Realtors can get you lot of information about the house that you are buying, like how old it is, how much was it sold before, some known issues about the area, how is the community etc... manakai manam realtor laga velithey, you need to do lot of ground work before you actually venture into buying one, for me i would prefer hassle free buying, konukunnaka badha padekantey kontha dabbu pothey poyyindi typu annamata  Jo Na Janey Haq Ki taaqat Rabb Na Dewey Usko Himmat. | ||

some realtors try to sell what they want to sell first... so you need to be real smart to read between the lines. Some tend to be really pushy... direct owner tho deal chesthe it will be more transparent IMO Don't say you don't have enough time.

go for 'sale by owner' as first choice... both of you can save some money. We did the same. Don't say you don't have enough time.

More than the agent it depends on you. Rule #1: If you have a fixed budget in mind say, $X, then do not start looking at $X+Y homes first. Start with $X-Y and then go up to $X and then $X+Y. raju ni choosina kanti tho mogudini choosinatlu untundi.
