REAL ESTATE

Make a checklist of house features

From page 6O

agent is responsible for fin-
ding the house you buy and
the house is for safe through
an agency. It's a goo ide
then to only use one aeen
to help you find a house.

IF you do use an ageni,
don’t rely solely on the
agent to find you a house.
Agents are typically busy
with other clients so you
will need to investigate other
possibilities on your own.
Look through newspaper
ads regularly. Make a list of
potential houses. Have your
agent call the listing agent
for more information. Real
estate ethics won't allow

your agent to get involved
in the transaction if you
have already contacted the
listing agent directly. Ask
questions and arrange to
view the house. If it’s not
exactly what you're looking
for, let the agent know what
your requirements are and
ask the agent to keep you in
mind if something similar
becomes available. Tell
people you know. that
you're iooking to buy a
home. They may be able to
give you some information
on homes availatte in their

area.
One of the most helpful
things you can do is keep a

written record of
search,

In many cases the agent
who is selling the house will
have already prepared a
“Features Sheet’? for pro-
spective buyers. This sheet
will usuaily offer details on
the lot size, age of house,
type of construction,
number of fevels, number
and size of rooms. whether
it has been remodelled, type
of heating, previous year’s
property taxes, whether
there is a fireplace, finished
basement, garage or car-
port, and any other special
features of the house such
as hardwood floors,
