65. Information for housing purchase:
a. Smart Buying. Smart buying is a controlled process in which your final selection isn't only the best product for the best price, but a product that you need and a purchase that fits in with your monthly budget. The Consumer Resources Handbook (which is downloadable) has an excellent section on smart buying, giving tips on getting the most for your money
b. Home Purchase. The first step in home buying is to decide what you're looking for. That includes both what fits your needs and what you can afford. To help you there is a home affordability calculator on the Homebuyer's Fair web site.
c. Making the Home Purchase. Once you've decided which house or apartment you'd like to live in, the next step becomes making the purchase, or in the case of renting an apartment, signing the lease. The Microsoft Money Insider provides a “Home Buying Roadmap.” You can also find Current Mortgage Rates available online from HSH Associates and at the Bank Rate Monitor. If you're interested in an adjustable rate mortgage, but don't quite understand them, try the Mortgage Market Information site “What Is an Adjustable Rate Mortgage?” In addition to these sources, the Consumer Information Center has a whole section of electronic pamphlets on Housing – Sales & Financing. One of the best sources for mortgage calculators is Kiplinger Online, which has 16 different “home calculators.” It has calculators that answer questions like “How much can I borrow?” “How big will my payments be?” “Which is better: fixed or adjustable?” and “Which is better: 15 or 30 year term?” Another great mortgage calculator can be found on Hugh Chou's web site.
d. Post-purchase Activities. The post-purchase activities include upkeep and maintenance along with refinancing decisions. To learn more about upkeep and maintenance, go to the Consumer Information Center web site, which has a whole section of electronic pamphlets on Home Maintenance.
