Tips for first-time home buyers

Defining Search Parameters for a First-Time Home Buyer

 Almost 80% of all home searches today begin on the Internet. With just a few clicks of the mouse, home buyers can search through hundreds of online listings, view virtual tours, and sort through dozens of photographs and aerial shots of neighborhoods and homes. You've probably defined your goals and have a pretty good idea of the type of home and neighborhood you want. By the time you reach your real estate agent's office, you are halfway to home ownership.

Meet one of our agents, Liane Stark

During my life I’ve been lucky to have traveled much of the US and Europe, but St. Augustine is my true home even if it took me awhile to find it.   In 2005 my husband and I sold our home in Michigan, bought a motorhome and traveled the next 4 years.  We crisscrossed the U.S. volunteering all the while searching for the next place to call home.  After traveling over 40,000 miles and seeing much of our beautiful country, we chose St. Augustine!  St. Augustine has it all – history, culture, sunny skies, dog friendly beaches and well the people of St. Augustine are warm, friendly, the absolute best!  I knew we had found home.

Being a full-time, full service realtor, I love helping others find their perfect home in St. Augustine too.  I have 20 years of sales experience and understand the frustration buyers and sellers can feel about the countless details, negotiations, financing and finally closing.  Combining my experience with web savvy, I keep my buyers/sellers informed and up-to-date throughout the process ensuring we reach a successful close.  I’m part of the dynamic and successful Florida East Coast Group at RE/MAX Coast 2 Coast.  Our team has the experience, dedication, professionalism and enthusiasm necessary to get the job done for our buyers and sellers!

When I’m not working I find time to volunteer at Labrador Rescue, Anastasia State Park and ArtBreakers and am a Board Member for the Enterprising Women’s Leadership Institute and Pink Up the Pace 5K Breast Cancer Walk/Run.  I’m an avid runner and sometimes triathlete.  My husband Doug and I have been married for 29 years and have two rescue labs – Mini and Cooper.   And yes, I do drive a Mini Cooper!

3.  You'll save on taxes.
4.  It'll be yours.

7.  It's risk capital.

Re/Max Coast2Coast

I don’t know about you but I just realized it's August already and September 1^st is just around the corner! It has been an amazing summer. The weather has been beautiful, the water at the beach is the warmest it has been in years and of course, the real estate market is as hot as the weather.


In case you haven’t heard, homes are selling faster right now than they have since 2006. REALTORS® are reporting they are getting multiple offers on most of their listings and if you’re a buyer…we have good news for you; interest rates just dropped again! Housing affordability is the best it has been since 1965…it is time to buy.


Whether you are selling or buying, you have the best of both worlds. And if you have been thinking about refinancing lock in your low interest rate now…there’s never been a better time. So act now, before September 1^st rolls around and everyone else realizes what is going on. I’m just a phone call away.
