Here are 10 ways to identify if you are making the right decisions and working with the right people: 1. They are 'YES' people, 2. You get no input into the house design or changes, 3. Social proof, 4. You get no choices when it comes to where you live and what you buy, 5. They are rushing you into a contract/making you sign on the first meeting, 6. They don't talk to you about your finances, lifestyle habits, and what you can afford in mortgage repayments, 7. The only reason you are working with them is they are nice people or you know them, 8. You are having to fix their mistakes, 9. They've never had any issues, and 10. Your gut feel! Whilst I admit now is the perfect time to purchase your own home and in fact, is a once in a lifetime for a lot of families, however, that does not mean you should be rushing into it or making the wrong decisions. Do your research and ensure whoever you choose to work with is making the right decisions for you and your family.

You can have a fixed rate, variable rate, or even both when purchasing your own home. Then there is 1 bank offering this interest rate that is cheaper than a second yet the comparison rate is higher and the second bank is the better choice. There are a lot of things to understand and generally speaking you may not get it explained well enough when you are making the choice. We often put so much pressure on making the choice that it becomes a point of stress in our lives when it really shouldn't be.
