Guide To Purchase Real Estate In Virginia

Home ownership is a rewarding investment. Unlike stocks and bonds, it is one of the few investments you can actually use and enjoy. Financing is readily available and interest rates are low, allowing purchases with relatively small down payments. This leverage means the rate of return on invested capital can be substantially higher than that available from other investments. Favorable tax laws provide a deduction for interest paid, effectively lowering the real mortgage payment.

If you would like additional information, please call either of our offices. We will be glad to assist you with more information and closing instructions. Get your full GUIDE TO PURCHASE REAL ESTATE or review the following steps to guide you:

The Selling Disclosure

 Buyers should always investigate on
their own and not rely on what the well-

home inspection is a must. Learn more
about disclosure in the selling process.

The HOA

Many communities operate under
a homeowner’s association. Their
requirements are extremely
important to know if you’re going to
purchase a home in Virginia.

for financing your home purchase. Deal
only with reputable, known and
