You're not ready to buy a house... yet!

Slow your roll, friend! According to your responses, you may not be ready to buy a house... yet. Settling down is a huge step, and you might not have a clear idea of what you truly want from life, which can make purchasing a property risky.

Unless you are a real estate developer, you probably don't want to pour time, energy, and a whole lot of money into a house only to sell it a year or two from now...

On top of that, your finances might need a little tuning up. Before buying a house, you should have an emergency fund and at least 5% of your dream house's price tag. But no sweat if you are off the mark, friend. By scrimping and saving, you could be ready to purchase a property soon.

How to find a suitable house in 3 simple, easy to try steps...

1) Know your goals

Before starting the search for your new house, take time to think about where you want to be a decade from now. Do you plan on switching career paths? Maybe having a kid or two? Without a clear picture, it isn't easy deciding what sort of property – a single-family home, a duplex, or a condo – is right for you.

2) Assess your finances

It's time to get real about just how much money you have to spend on your new house. From credit card debt to student loans, take every dollar into account. Make sure to review your savings, track your spending, and check your credit score, so you don't get any unhappy surprises while speaking with a potential lender.

3) Hire a real estate agent

Once you know what you are looking for and how much you can afford to spend, your next step is to hire a real estate agent. An agent can help you find a house in your price range with all your must-have amenities. A quick tip: look for someone who knows the area you are interested in buying in inside and out!
