Most people have friends who know a REALTOR or who have worked with one. My first advice is to ask your friends and family members to help you with that one. Its better to go with someone you know has worked with a friend, better references that way.

If you don’t know of anyone that does, Internet search is your next option. Find someone local to the area you are looking at. Not every agent works all areas. Someone from Miami may not know the Coral Springs neighborhood or stats, and vise versa. Does the agent specialize in working with First Time Homebuyers?

Interview a few and see which one you click with. Things run much smother if you are working with someone you are comfortable with.

Once you found a REALTOR he or she will ask you some qualifying questions.

How many bedrooms, baths, pool no pool and most importantly whether or not you are pre – approved with a lender? Without that, the listing agent won’t even look at a possible offer you will be sending over. Not only that, how much do you think you qualify for? Are you looking in a price range that may be over? Know this before going in.

After you have been pre – approved, our next step is locating the PERFECT home for you!!!

 In Tamarac you have one right off of University on the East side between Commercial Blvd and Mcnab rd. There is also Publix in the Midway Plaza in Tamarac on the Corner of University and Commercial Blvd on the West side.

In Coral Springs you have the Home Depot(which is where I usually buy my Tree from) on the corner of University and Atlantic Blvd on the West side. They have trees priced really good. Last few years I bought my Christmas tree and I usually buy a 9ft tree for about 60 dollars. Publix on the corner of Univeristy and Ramblewood is also selling Christmas Trees.

In Sunrise you have the Home Depot again on Univeristy between Sunrise and Oakland. Then there is Lowes on the Corner of Univeristy and Oakland Pk Blvd. Publix on the corner of Oakland Pk Blvd and Nob Hill.

If you notice that most of the places I have mentioned are mainly right off of Univeristy Drive. So take a drive down this road and you will pretty much run into any of these places. But my honest opinion to find a great tree for a great price is at the Home Depot! The Tree lots are usually are priced on the higher end.

Happy hunting and let me know where you found your tree at and what you thought of the lot.

Happy Holidays to you and your Family!
