You're thinking about buying a house? Without an agent? Here's some advice to help you to understand the typical house-buying experience, or to send you wailing and sobbing all the way to the nearest friendly, understanding real estate agent.

Rule number one:
"There ain't no such thing as a 'typical' house buying experience."

Each buyer has unique motives for buying a house, and each seller has unique motives for selling. The most successful buyer understands the motives of both parties, and using that understanding, coordinates the efforts of several other parties to finalize a transaction that is beneficial to all. No rational being would try to condense the whole of real estate law and custom into the scope of a single article.

Likewise, merely reading this article prepares no one to face the complexities of real estate transactions. Seek the assistance and opinions of competent professional help, and use these inputs to build your own reasoned approach.
