Oh no, we're not doing this alone! We've got a wonderufl agent. I simply want to make sure that in all the hustle of seeing property after property, nothing is forgotten and the little questions don't go unasked/answered just because I fell in love with kitchen cabinets. ;)

Ask them questions concerning the neighborhood, schools, future city planning, etc. Things that you won't find out by looking at a house. The agent should know what you are looking for in a house. You just need to find one you like. Then make sure a professional home inspector inspects the home. They should check everything from the roof to the foundation, electrical, plumbing, etc.
Also make sure your agent can tell you what the comparable homes in the neigborhood sold for. To make sure the price is right.
Good luck!

Are you gong to do this all by your self?- I sure hope not. find an agent to help you, make sure you are comfortable with them and then begin your search. Tell your agent everything you want in a home, what area, price, everything you can think of. Your agent will know what questions that really need to answered and find you that perfect house. Some advise- get pre-approved- it will save you some time and then you can immediately open escrow upon finding the house. A licensed Realtor will not cost you anything the seller pays for the service. Good luck !!!!!!!

Lol, stay out of the kitchen tiles and appliances in the kitchen and pretty bathrooms will sell the home before the common sense kicks in. Ask for a seller's property condition report it's everything you need to know.

Before signing with a Buyer's Agent, ask if this person will work with you during the entire process, or, will they palm you off to a 'junior team member' if you don't find the right house for you during the first week.
Then you'll want to TELL the Realtor what you're looking for: the type of neighborhood (older or newer subdivision), if you prefer a culdesac, if you want to be somewhat assured of the school district, if you want to be in the 'city limits' to insure immediate fire and police protection, and that you will not be rushed.

Get yourself a buyers agent. It is of no cost to you, they are paid by the selling agent and will know all the right questions to ask. Please do yourself the favor and do not go it alone. Would you pull your own tooth, or go to a dentist?
Remember the agent selling the house has to be fair and honest to you, but in the end they re working on the sellers behalf. Trust me, take my advise.
you can find a qualified agent in your area at www.remax.com
I could tell you all the questions to ask, but that would take way too long.
