Buyers' Resource Section:

1. Appraising the home to determine if the house is worth what you are paying for it.
2. Verifying employment, credit history, debt paying ability, to determine the risk.
3. Verifying accounts have adequate funds to satisfy closing and down payment responsibilities.
4. Ordering a slew of inspections on the home to determine it's structural integrity, check completion of repairs agreed upon by seller and buyer, check for termite infestation, and more.
5. Ordering the title search through some sort of legal representative. This ensures clear transfer of title to you after the purchase.
6. Verifying hazard insurance coverage is adequate in the event of fire, smoke, hail, tornado, hurricane, etc. This step ensures the home investment is protected from major loss.
