Purchasing a property is one of the biggest financial decisions you’ll ever make. Whether you’re a first-time homebuyer or a seasoned investor, having a clear plan and the right guidance makes all the difference. Here are some important things to consider before you buy.

Why Are You Buying?

Are you tired of paying high rent or ready for more space? Looking to grow your wealth through real estate? Understanding your “why” helps you focus on what truly matters—whether that’s finding your forever home or building your investment portfolio.

Are You Ready to Invest?

Real estate remains one of the most reliable ways to build long-term wealth. Whether it’s your first home or an income-generating rental property, investing in real estate offers stability that many other assets can’t match.

Other Things To Consider

Get Your Financials in Order

Before buying, it’s important to approach your purchase from a place of financial stability. Avoid making large purchases or career changes that could affect your credit or loan eligibility.

Your credit score plays a major role in determining your loan terms, interest rates, and the price range you can afford. We can connect you with our trusted local lenders who specialize in residential, construction, commercial, and investment financing. They’ll help you review your credit from Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion and prepare for pre-qualification.

Organize Your Finances

Being financially prepared helps you act fast and confidently when the right property comes along. Here’s what you’ll want ready:

  • Bank account statements
  • Recent pay stubs
  • Financial statements and tax returns (2 years)
  • Investment and retirement account details (401K, stocks, bonds, etc.)
  • Credit card and loan information
  • Copies of leases for investment properties

Pre-Qualified Vs. Pre-Approved

Getting prequalified early helps you:

  • Identify the price range you can afford
  • Understand your monthly payment options
  • Compare loan types available to you
  • Estimate your down payment and closing costs

Resources For El Paso Home Buyers

The journey to homeownership starts by understanding how much you can afford. One major thing to consider is your down payment, if any. Many consumers believe it's impossible to buy a home without at least 20 percent down. But thanks to various government-sponsored programs, many people can now buy a house with as little as 3.5 percent toward a down payment. Veterans of the U.S. military have zero-down programs available.
