To Make a House a Home

Summary: House hunting in California was proving to be a challenge. Leave it to Bradley to manage to pull off the biggest surprise you’ve ever gotten.

Pairing: Bradley Bradshaw x Reader (no use of y/n, can be read as unnamed OC) 

Word Count: 1.6K 

Warnings: smut, fluff, language 

Notes: This was written off the blurb request I got during my TGM Blurb Party by @cherrycola27​. She requested Bradley. Smut/Fluff. House. “You can’t trick me into confessing my secrets” and it ran away from me, so she gets a one shot instead. Hope you like it and that it worth the wait, girlfriend!

“I don’t think I can handle an open house today, baby. Can we just go back to the apartment instead?” 

The dejection in your voice was clear. You had been on the market for a house for months now that you had relocated to San Diego from Virginia. But the market was nearly impossible right now, and you were dealt rejection after rejection for every single offer you put in. You were renting an apartment on a month to month basis with the majority of your things packed away in a storage unit, and both of you were so eager to get out of the third floor walk up and into a place you could make a home. 

Bradley squeezed your hand before bringing it to his lips as he took an exit off the freeway. It was sunny but not too hot today, and the wind from the open windows made the strands of your hair flutter around your face. “Just one, okay? I have a good feeling about this."

“Just one?” you asked, hesitation and reluctance in your voice. But you would humor him, he knew, because he never asked for much. 

“Just one,” he confirmed. 

You sighed, and Bradley knew you really didn’t want to, but you agreed with him nonetheless. You weren’t happy now, but his own excitement started vibrating under his skin, because he knew you would be. He couldn’t wait to see the look on your face. 

It was only another few minutes before he pulled into a neighborhood. He saw how you sat up a little straighter in your seat and how your brows pulled together out of the corner of his eye; you started to recognize your surroundings, taking them in. You didn’t say anything right away, but Bradley could practically feel the wheels in your head turning. You waited until he pulled into the driveway of a very familiar house before turning to him.

“What are we doing here?” 

The here in question was a house that could only be described as your dream home. It had almost everything your Pinterest Home Goals board could ever imagine, and maybe even a little bit extra, and you had fallen in love with it the moment you saw it during your house hunting more than a month ago. Your eyes had lit up in a way that Bradley had never seen before, only to be stamped out when the offer you had put in before you had even left the driveway was rejected the very next day. It had been hard, but you had simply smiled at him and said you would find another dream home, and that as long as you were with him, it didn’t matter. He knew you were being truthful, but he also knew that every home you looked at afterward simply didn’t compare. When he got the phone call from the realtor last week that it was back on the market after the original buyers had fallen through, he knew he had to move fast. With a little more cash down and a pre-approved loan for the rest, he had managed to sign all the paperwork and get the keys with you being none the wiser. 

Bradley turned the Bronco off and got out. You were still giving him that same confused, skeptical look when he rounded the vehicle to open your door for you like he always did. He couldn’t help but lean forward and place a kiss on the top of your scrunched up nose. 

“Come on,” he said, helping you down and closing the door once you were safely on the ground. “We should go inside.” 

“Bradley, there’s no one else here. And isn’t this house already sold?” 

You sound dumbfounded, and more than a little confused. You climbed the few steps to the closed front door, and Bradley couldn’t keep it to himself any longer. A smile took over his entire face and he dug around in his front pocket until he held his hand out. A shiny, silver key laid in his palm. 

“I..I don’t…what’s happening?” 

Instead of answering, he took the key and inserted it into the lock. The door swung open easily and he gestured for you to go in. You did so slowly, not taking your eyes off of him until you crossed the threshold. You gasped when you looked around. The large open concept living room and kitchen were bare, not a single rug or piece of furniture to be found as of yet. But on one of the walls right there in front of you, your favorite photo of the two of you hung, snug in its frame that had been sitting in your storage unit up until he had retrieved it earlier this morning. You stared at it in shock for a long moment. Bradley closed the front door and wrapped his arms around you from behind, pressing a kiss to the top of your head. You turned to look at him, that same look of disbelief on your face, but your eyes were bright with love and awe.

“This is ours?” you asked quietly, like you were too scared of the answer. He nodded. “You bought this?” 

“We bought this,” he corrected, “but yes. We did.”  

You didn’t say anything, just stared at him for a long moment before squealing and launching yourself into his arms. The unexpected force of your body made him lose his footing and sent the both of you to the ground. He braced your fall with his body, but even then, he was laughing. 

“Bradley! This is our house!” 

“It is,” he agreed, looking up at you with the biggest smile on his face. You squealed again before leaning down to kiss him and he returned it eagerly. His hands settled on your butt, squeezing softly through the denim. 

“How did you pull this off without me knowing? You aren’t sneaky!” 

“I’m plenty sneaky when it means surprising the love of my life, thank you very much,” he remarked. You rolled your eyes but kissed him again nonetheless. 

“Our house,” you mumbled against his lips. He hummed in response, nodding. His cock twitched in his jeans. You always had a powerful effect on him, but combined with the way your body pressed against his, wiggling in excitement, and knowing that the happiness radiating off of you practically in waves was because of him, he was almost fully hard in a matter of moments. You could feel it, too. He knew by the way you ground down into him and tugged at his hair. You pulled away after a moment, rolling off of him and climbing to your feet.

He was about to push himself up as well but stopped when you tugged your shirt over your head. His jaw dropped as the material fluttered to the floor beside where he lay. You kicked off your shoes and worked on getting your jeans and panties off next. You returned to him as soon as you were left only in your bra, and you immediately set to work on undoing his belt and pulling his zipper down. 

“Don’t you want to look around?” he asked, even as he was finally getting with the program and raising his body just enough to quickly discard his own shirt. 

“No, I want to fuck you in our house. Right now. And I want you to tell me how you managed to do all of this.” 

He groaned in pleasure when you freed his cock from the confines of his boxers. “You can’t trick me into confessing my secrets. Oh, fuck, baby, god damn.” 

You had taken his length into your mouth with no preamble, sucking and licking him in the sloppy way that you knew he loved. The back of his head hit the hardwood floors as you hollow your cheeks. He cursed your name when you hummed around him. He threaded his fingers loosely through your hair. “Oh my god, you’re so good to me.” 

You didn’t work him with your mouth for too long, pulling off of him after only a minute or two, but he couldn’t bring himself to complain about it when you were climbing up his body and lining him up with your glistening wet pussy. You sank down slowly, and your matching groans echoed off the walls of the empty house. 

“You’ll tell me eventually,” you breathed, clenching around him as he bottomed out. You ran your hands over his chest, your nails scraping against his nipples as you went. His hips jerked up into you at the sensation and he knew you were right; despite what he said, your tricks always worked on him. 

He rolled the two of you so you were on your back below him. He thrusted in and out of you with long, hard strokes, you begging him for more the entire time in that desperate way you always did when his cock was buried inside of you. He wouldn’t be surprised if neither of you lasted long, but that was okay, because you had an entire house to christen.

“Welcome home, baby,” he grunted, slamming his hips into yours and reveling in the sounds you were making for him, echoing around him like music, “welcome home.”

Once Charles Elias had eaten and everyone was satisfied with their conversation, Theodore took Charles Elias to the small cabin that was to be his new home.

The cabin's interior was very simple. It held a bed, a bathtub, a chamber pot and a small chest to store clothes in and that was it. The only decoration in the room was an old, frayed rug that did very little to keep the wooden floor warm.

Still, it was better than nothing.

Charles Elias was left alone to have a bath and to unpack, and by then night had begun to fall and Charles Elias had begun to settle.

He had so many feelings, so many thoughts, and as the aches, soreness, cold and hunger from travel began to leave him he felt those feelings fully once more.

He warred with the thought of telling Theodore the truth about why he left, wondering if Theodore knew and had chosen not to bring it up for the same reasons Charles Elias had. Or if he was unaware, and the relevation that Charles Elias was his son would in some way fracture the peace he had finally found.

In the end Charles Elias surpressed the urge to tell Theodore the truth, and that night he crawled into his new bed. It wasn't as soft or pleasant as the one he had left behind, and it felt a little awkward sleeping next to Theodore, but it didn't stop Charles Elias from drifting off into a deep sleep.

Over the next week Charles Elias began to settle into his new life on the farm, helping out with everything from feeding the chickens (and the stray goose who had decided to live with them) and caring for the family cow.

Theodore also helped Charles Elias get used to fishing, since it wasn't something Charles Elias was terribly used to.

He had to admit that the first couple of times he got into the boat Theodore used for fishing he felt positively nauseous, but soon enough the rocking motion of the boat stopped feeling quite so frightful.

Whenever they were out fishing Theodore and Charles Elias would reminisce. Theodore was very eager to learn how things had been for the Park family since Theodore had left, and Charles Elias was always happy to hear stories of Theodore's life.

A lot of the fish they caught was kept alive and put into barrels to be sold to traveling fishmongers, although the amount and type of fish varied. A tenth of all fish caught was kept to be given to the church. The fish leftover from all that became dinner for the household....

... And whatever scraps they could spare were fed to the household's three cats.

Historical Info

Being situated in the middle of the Baltic Sea meant that fishing was a very easy access for food and for profit.

The type of fish that was caught depended on season and location, and the methods to catch each type of fish varied.

According to Det Åländska Folkets Historia Vol. III (The History of the Åland People Vol. III): "fishing was done, to a degree, for the sake of supplying a household with food, but for the most part it was done to sell living fish".

This fish was bought up by traveling fishmongers who would come over in boats to stay at pre-approved harbours. In early spring many Ålanders travelled over to Stockholm to receive a supply of salt as a "loan" of sorts, to be repaid with fish over the year. "In times when salt was scarce fishing would dramatically decrease." That said "salted fish did not belong to the fishmonger's area of operation." Still, since salt was often needed for the households it was an acceptable exchange.

Fishing and its business was a very strictly regulated matter on the Åland Islands, and many laws surrounded it. For one "landless people needed a landowner's permission in order to go fishing", something which was occasionally ignored and lead to a lot of legal disagremeents between people over the years.

Since Charles Elias and Theodore have express permission from Mr. Isak Pålström, they're perfectly fine to continue with what they are doing.

Buying A House With A FHA 203k Loan Explained

If you're in the market for a new home, you may have heard of the FHA 203k loan. This type of loan allows you to purchase a home that needs some renovations with a single loan that covers both the purchase price and the cost of the renovations.

What is an FHA 203k Loan?

An FHA 203k loan is a type of mortgage that allows you to purchase a home and finance the cost of renovations at the same time. There are two types of 203k loans: the standard 203k loan and the limited 203k loan. The standard 203k loan is for more extensive renovations, such as structural repairs, while the limited 203k loan is for smaller repairs, such as replacing appliances or installing new flooring.

With an FHA 203k loan, you'll need to work with a contractor to create a detailed renovation plan as per FHA loan requirements, which will be submitted to the lender for approval. Once the loan is approved, the funds will be disbursed to the contractor as the work is completed. This means that you won't have to pay for the renovations out of pocket, and you'll only have one loan payment to make each month.

Step 1: Determine if You're Eligible for an FHA 203k Loan

Before you can apply for an FHA 203k loan, you'll need to make sure you meet the FHA loan requirements. To qualify for this loan, you must:

Have a minimum credit score of 580

Have a debt-to-income ratio of no more than 43%

Have a down payment of at least 3.5%

Use the loan to purchase a property that will be your primary residence

Have a reliable source of income

Step 2: Find a Property That Needs Renovations

Once you know you meet all the FHA loan requirements for an FHA 203k loan, you can start searching for a property that needs renovations. It's important to keep in mind that not all properties are eligible under FHA loan requirements for this type of loan. The property must meet the following requirements:

It must be a one- to four-unit property that has been completed for at least one year.

The property must be located in a community that meets certain standards for safety and livability.

The cost of the renovations must be at least $5,000.

The renovations cannot include any luxury items, such as swimming pools or outdoor kitchens.

It's important to work with a real estate agent who is experienced in working with FHA 203k loans, as they can help you identify properties that meet these FHA loan requirements.

Step 3: Work with a Lender to Get Pre-Approved for a Loan

Once you've found a property you're interested in, you'll need to work with a lender to get pre-approved for an FHA 203k loan. During this process, the lender will review your credit score, debt-to-income ratio, and other financial information to determine how much you can borrow.

It's important to work with a lender who has experience with FHA 203k loans, as the process can be more complex than a traditional mortgage. Your lender can help you navigate the process and answer any questions you may have.

Step 4: Get a Home Inspection and Create a Renovation Plan

Before you can apply for an FHA 203k loan, you'll need to get a home inspection and create a renovation plan. The home inspection will identify any issues with the property that need to be addressed, and the renovation plan will outline the scope of work and estimated costs.

It's important to work with a licensed contractor to create the renovation plan, as this will be submitted to the lender for approval. The renovation plan must be detailed and include all of the work that will be done, as well as the estimated costs.

Step 5: Close on the Property and Begin Renovations

Once your loan is approved and you've closed on the property, you can begin the renovations. The funds from the loan will be disbursed to the contractor as the work is completed. It's important to work closely with your contractor throughout the renovation process to ensure the work is done to your satisfaction.

Buying a house with an FHA 203k loan can be a great option if you're interested in a fixer-upper. By following these steps and working with experienced professionals, you can successfully navigate the process and create the home of your dreams.

My post isn't going to be very exciting. Because I didn't feel great and slept a lot of the day. I would like to go back to sleep now. I honestly just feel very bad.

Last night the wedding was so fun. Like it took forever to get anyone to come back but once they did they were all so lovely and had amazing questions and it was a lot of fun!! When I was leaning on the banister looking over where the bar was, the car was down there too and I kept jokingly telling people who were taking pictures sitting in it that they can't drink and drive. Which I thought was hilarious.

I helped Angie move some tables. And then I went home.

On my drive back home I saw a guy laying on the side of the road and I stopped to ask the homeless guy if he was okay and he said he thought so. I was surprised that a cop just drove past and said as much and he was like the cops don't care about us and I was like. You are so right. I hope they are both okay.

I got home and was able to fall apart again. And I did. I would start to feel like I had a fever again. Without having the fever. My whole body ached and was tender and I just wanted to lay there and be held for a while.

I would eat a little but it still made me feel terrible. Everything I've eaten since Thursday has made me feel terrible. I hate it.

Sleeping helped a bit. I would struggle to fall asleep but would sleep deeply after that. I barely remember James leaving.

I woke up at 9 and would just lay in bed until almost 10. I finally got up. Made the bed. And opened the back door. While we did sleep with the AC in it would be really cool today and I didn't need that at all.

I would get washed and dressed. This is the first time I've worn this jumpsuit and it's great. Nice and flowy. Though the buttons are real and I think I'll sew them down to avoid gaps. But I felt cute. I decided not to do my eyeliner. Since it's almost camp and I don't wear eyeliner at camp. Have to get used to my face again.

I would have a little breakfast of angel food cake. And got right into working on my Native American feild trip proposal. I would spend the next two hours working on that. And it's not done but I made great progress. I'm like half way done I think. But it took a lot out of me. I have more research to do for sure. But I think my basic outline is there and that feels like huge progress.

It was right before 1 at this point. And I was just. Done. I felt exhausted. I didn't want to do anything. I also didn't want to feel guilty about it. So I just went and got in bed. I watched videos for a while. I asked James if we could have pizza for dinner. And then at some point I fell asleep.

I woke up and Jess told me she drove past the two houses she wants to buy. She got pre-approved for her loans this week and the one house I love. She's going to go see it later this week. I am going to be so excited for her if it works out. And she will have more info to help me and James when we start actually getting into trying to buy somewhere as well.

James would get home and start laundry and then went to pick up pizza. And while at the time it wasn't hurting, almost as soon as dinner was done I felt terrible and swollen. I don't know what is up with me. But it makes me want to cry.

James would also bring me a gift from our friend Lane, a Polly pocket set! With the Polly's!! I told them to text her that I "love these little blonde bitches." And she said it wouldn't be Polly pocket without the little blonde bitches and she's so real for that.

James held me on the couch for a little. And then I took a hot bath which helped a little bit I mostly just want to go to sleep.

James made a plan for us to go to a far away state park tomorrow. I am looking forward to being outside with them. I hope my body isn't stupid and doesn't act like it has the last couple days.

I hope you all have a great night. I hope you all feel good. Sleep well everyone!

Exclusive Guide to Finding the Best House for Sale in Melbourne

So you have decided to buy your dream house in the most liveable city on earth—Melbourne?

Did you know that it is often referred to as the “world’s sporting capital”?

Besides having graffiti laneways, cultural diversities, a bayside location, and mouth-watering coffee, this is a good place to live for many reasons.

It has multiple public transportation options, plenty of job opportunities, low crime rates, an immense arts and culture scene, and, in short, an easy lifestyle. Buying your dream house is a big decision, and it must be backed with solid research to get the best deal.

To help you out, we have come up with an extensive guide to finding the best house for sale in Melbourne. Now buckle up and start reading this article to get a vivid image of the buying process.

Tips to Find the Best House for Sale in Melbourne

There are numerous things to consider while checking homes for sale. To ensure you make the buying process a streamlined one, check out the following things.

Fix your budget

You visit a house for sale in Melbourne. It’s alluring, stands tall, and even beats all your expectations. You excitedly enquire about the price and get disappointed to learn it is way beyond your budget.

This hurts badly. To avoid such unpleasant things, first, fix your budget. Once you have a budget fixed, you can filter the market and visit the houses with the confidence that you can buy one if it meets your necessities.

This is why, when it comes to buying a house for sale, having enough funds is critical. From the down payment to closing costs, you must adhere to strict financial commitments. But it’s not always about the money; it’s about the security and freedom that come with owning your dream house, where you can dwell with your loved ones. First, decide on the budget and finances, and set realistic goals.

What are the must-haves in your dream house?

Now take a pen and paper, sit down with your family, and list the must-haves of the house in Melbourne. This might be a big list, but you need patience to curate it. Because acknowledging your needs helps narrow down your search and find the ideal place to live.

Buying your house starts with one simple decision: finding the ideal location to call home. You have already decided that it’s Melbourne.

But did you know that Melbourne is a diverse city with many suburbs to choose from?

The next thing you must fixate on is the size of the house, including the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, the style, outdoor space, safety, storage, energy efficiency, and parking.

On top of that, while checking out the Melbourne house for sale, don’t forget to consider the proximity to work, schools, and other amenities.

When tailoring your list, ensure it meets your needs and preferences because you are investing big, and it must be worthy and close to your heart.

Thoroughly investigate home loans

Skipping mortgage pre-approval is one of the biggest mistakes you can make.

If you have decided to get a loan, first learn how much your bank will offer. Remember, what the bank says you can afford is different from what you know you can afford.

On the other hand, what you think you can afford to buy a house in Melbourne is different from what the bank is willing to lend you. Your chances of getting a loan can be affected if you have poor credit or an unstable income.

So, ensure that you are pre-approved for a loan before placing an offer on a home or even before you start house-hunting.

Note: Even if you are pre-approved for a mortgage, your loan can be denied at the last minute if you alter your credit score by financing a car purchase, etc. So be extra careful of the things you plan to buy or lend using your card.

Inspect a property before purchasing it.

Usually, the houses for sale in Melbourne will be presented for inspection by potential buyers at different time slots. Some houses are available for private inspection and can be visited with the real estate agent’s help.

You get 30 to 45 minutes for open home inspections. To make the most of the inspection during this time, make a checklist of what to check.

Use the checklist while inspecting properties.

Take pictures and notes of the property, including the exterior features and if any damage or issues are present. You can make a note of your likes and dislikes for that property.

Ask questions to the concerned person, i.e., the real estate agent there.

If it is a new house, you can ask about

The warranty or guarantee and what it covers

Are upgrades or customizations available?

What are the energy-efficiency features the house has?

If it is an old house, you can enquire.

When was the house last renovated?

Why is the vendor selling it?

What’s included in the property?

How long have they lived there?

What were the past maintenance or repairs done?

Are there any known issues with the house?

By asking questions relevant to your situation, you can better understand the advantages and potential challenges of buying a new house versus an old house and make an informed decision.

This process can seem daunting, and you may lack the experience to deal with it. Get professional help from real estate agents to handle it. Professionals can spot hidden problems and ensure that it’s worth investing in the house. 

Don’t ignore the neighborhood.

While checking out the houses for sale in Melbourne, you will naturally be more focused on the house and may overlook the neighborhood.

We understand that it’s not possible to predict the future of your selected neighborhood. But asking about its past can help you avoid unpleasant surprises down the road.

If there is any undeveloped land around, enquire about what is likely to get built there.

Is the home value in the neighborhood rising or declining?

What are the zoning laws in the area?

Check the crime rate and safety. Visit the local houses and neighbors to clear up these doubts.

If you are happy with the answers to these questions, you can show a green signal.

Check the property titles.

Check if the property titles are correct because they are the birth certificate of your property. Homebuyers hire a title company to perform title searches on their behalf.

Here, a real estate attorney can also help find out if any legal issues are present and if the property has been legally transferred to you. In addition, ensure the property boundaries are clearly defined and that there are no boundary disputes.

Check with the local council.

Before you seal the deal, check with the local council to enjoy a worry-free home-buying experience.

The local council is in charge of managing, planning, and developing the area, so they know the ins and outs of it.

So, we can safely call the local council the guardian angel because they can give you insider information that your seller or real estate agent might hide from you.

With their expert knowledge, you can know if the house for sale in Melbourne abides by zoning laws and building codes and is in full compliance with regulations.

Or any future development in the area could affect your property value or quality of life.

Money may not be able to buy happiness, but it sure can buy you a roof over your head! 

Make an offer and close the deal.

Making an offer to the households is of huge importance. Before you make an offer, determine your budget and strictly stick to it. Also, consider the additional expenses, including the inspection fees and closing costs.

Next, research recent sales of similar houses in the same neighborhood to determine if the asking price is fair. Your real estate agent can aid you in negotiating and sealing the best deal.

Before sending the proposal, consider contingencies. The contingencies in your offer can save you from unfortunate circumstances such as the inability to secure financing, etc. But ensure you don’t mention too much of it, as it can create a bad impression.

Lastly, write a personal letter. Well, this unique idea can make you stand out from other buyers and create an impression. Be genuine and authentic, and explain why you want to buy the property.

Remember, making an offer is just the beginning of the negotiation process. The stronger the offer, the more chances you have of securing your dream home.

Final Words

And to conclude, an important point to remember is: Don’t overthink signing the deal. We understand that buying your dream house is huge. But again, you must have done ample research before throwing an anchor on one.

There are cases where buyers lose the best deal because someone else takes the swift decision and buys it. And importantly, negotiation is important, but overdoing it can ruin the deal. When the house for sale in Melbourne ticks most of the boxes on your checklist, go for it.

Buying your house can be thrilling, but it can also be overwhelming if you put everything in your head. So, hire a real estate agent to hold your hand in the right direction.

@dokvhana asked:

✏️+ Does my muse know your muse:  yes | no | a little

If 'yes', quick Context: i think Akane and Hisaka would have crossed paths often enough while she's running errands for her captain/lieutenant to eventually become friends. Setting:Bleach verse | Mafia verse | Pirate verse | other Type of relationship: friends, co-worker

Pre-Establishing Relationships: A choose your own adventure plotting guide!

Option 1: Mundane - An innocuous workplace meeting

Hisaka understand that paperwork and documentation and approvals and checks-and-balances are an essential component of like... Running a military or whatever but why does he need to be the pack mule! (It's because he's the rookie, obviously, and special-forces status does not immunize him to being the rest of the special-forces donut bitch.)

"Yooooo," He sticks his head into the 5th division barracks. Thank god the lay out of this one is relatively similar to his own, and he finds the offices relatively easily. Getting humiliatingly lost in the 12th was a near death experience he has no interest in repeating today. "There an... Uh. Koizumi-san here? I have transfer paperwork for 'em!"

Choice 1: Akane is not present Choice 2: Akane is present, but doesn't know what he's talking about. Choice 3: Choose your own

Option 2: A Comedy of Errors - Miss communicating their way into acquaintanceship

"No, no -" He holds up a hand, "I wasn't told I had a partner for this mission, you aren't even in my division. Ah-" He's being rude. Very very rude. "Not that you're not a competent shinigami, Koizumi-san, it's just weird?"

It was weird enough to even be allocated this particular mission - the 9th doesn't have a lot of human territory to manage, but this isn't even one of them. He was told he'd be 'on loan'. He's fine with it, really, the human world doesn't bother him. But he didn't get told he'd have a partner!

Choice 1: Call him out for being rude! Choice 2: Apologise for the confusion, but it's not her fault! Choice 3: Choose your own

Option 3: A chance encounter - Caught off duty!

She's very very pretty, almost too pretty for a dive like this one. Long, dark hair spilling down her back, and big doe-like eyes, and a small nose. She doesn't have the physical mass that Hisaka's come to expect of the female enlistee's in the Gotei - at least none in his division - but he can tell from the sureness of her hands and the confidence of her posture that she is a shinigami.

He'd come out tonight with colleagues, not an unusual occurrence, but at this time on a Friday night, most of them had eitehr drifted off or gone home. He was left with the stragglers and the enablers.

It's dark in the izakaya, the room is warm, the air smells sweet, and he's already had probably a little too much to drink. It's the only reason he finds the confidence to slide up to her stool and the trio of ladies sitting with her.

"Hey, I - uh. Ah. Um. Well, I had a pick up line prepared but I forgot it as soon as I saw your face up close."

Choice 1: Laugh! It's cute, and you don't mind flirting a little. Choice 2: Turn him down, you're emotionally unavailable. Choice 3: Choose your own

8 Essential Tips to Consider When Buying Your First Home

Owning a home for the first time is a commendable achievement, but it may feel like a daunting task, especially if there is no clear direction in mind. There are plenty of considerations, such as financing, searching for the nashik properties, and making a decision that is binding in every sense. At Shreeji Group, we understand that not only is it the right of every homebuyer but also their responsibility to be actively involved in the buying process. As a first-time homebuyer, we wish to provide you with 8 essential tips that will help you in the process of purchasing your first home:

1. Set a Realistic Budget

The first step in buying a home is knowing what you can afford. So, many factors have to be analyzed, including your savings, income status, and outstanding debt ratios. Also keep in mind other expenses such as down payments, closing costs,, and costs to be able to maintain the house. Set a ceiling that allows you to service the monthly installments without much strain on your finances.

2. Get Pre-Approved for a Loan

Another option that helps gain even more leverage in a home transaction is getting pre-approved for a home loan. This lends one a picture of how much borrowing power one possesses, and what kind of terms relate to the mortgage. These benefits are especially important when trying to close a deal because it confirms that one is serious about purchasing a home.

3. Choose the Right Location

Not only its aesthetics but also other characteristics support the appreciation of the home. Consider commutation advantages, ease of transporting children to school, clinics, shopping centers, and availability of public transport. A well exposed area not only makes life easier and better but even adds more value to the property in times to come.

4. Understand Your Must-Haves

When looking for the perfect house, try to determine what features you cannot be without. This can be the number of required bedrooms, need for garden or lawns, or a floor plan. Understanding what you need in a home versus what you want in a home allows you to organize your search for a house effectively and avoid distractions.

5. Research the Developer

For new buyers, it is advisable to research the real estate developer before investing. A well-established and strong reputation company which provides quality, timely and service after the construction site completion is the company to go with, shreeji group for example.

6. Inspect the Property Thoroughly

No property viewing should be done without engaging an inspector. Even if the property is brand new or it is used, it should always be subject to a professional inspection looking for other property issues like mechanicals, electricals, structural among others. This step can assist in avoiding incurring additional costs in the future for repairs.

7. Consider Future Resale Value

When purchasing your first house, it makes sense to think about the possibility of reselling the property. Assuming one purchases a property in an expanding area with proper infrastructure, that asset will likely grow in value and help you whenever you decide to sell the house later on.

8. Be Patient and Take Your Time

If you want to buy a house, then be quite particular about making this decision and do not make haste. Deliberate for some time to look for opportunities in the market, travel around different houses, and examine all of them based on your own checklist. If a buyer is well-informed, he or she will likely end up buying a house that is by his or her needs and future objectives.

With due care to research and planning, the right property is tailored to your needs and fits within your budget.

The top tips for finding the right property for sale

One has to select the correct property containing all the main criteria for an effective investment. Following the mentioned tips, you'll enhance your property-buying experience and find a home that meets your needs.

Understand your budget

Before searching for the one, you must know how much you can afford. Think on a budget, considering your income, savings, and the loans you need. Moreover, taxes, insurance, utilities, and the actual price of the property should be included to determine what one can afford without overstretching. With this budget in mind, we shall proceed to the next step of looking for pre-approval of the mortgage. That is why a lender looks at your financial situation and then tells you an approximate amount they will be willing to lend you.

Know your needs

Before you finalize your property, take the time to sit and pen down what you need. Make a list of what bedrooms, bathrooms and other particular needs. This should include the need for an office or a garage. It will make it easier to keep in control of finding the right house for you without wasting precious time on unsuitable ones. Do you plan on starting a family or looking for a place to downsize? Your needs today could change over time, so you will want to choose a property that can grow along with the changes in your lifestyle.

Research the location

Where the property is situated may be one of your most important values. Be sure to pay attention to the area's lighting and where schools, parks, public transportation and shops are located. Try to spend the days at different times of the day and different days of the week to find out more about the area. Moreover, other developments within the area should be taken into consideration. Are there plans for new schools, shopping centers, or public transport options? While these can add conveniences to your life, they may also impact property values.

Inspect the property thoroughly

Inspect for wear and tear, including cracks on the walls and water stains, problems with the roof and so on. Research on plumbing, electrical, and appliance fixing in the house needs to be conducted as well. An inspection may reveal some problems with the property, which you may not be aware of when you initially begin and which may later prove very costly. Besides, it is more effective to recognize such matters before buying. Besides, get a report on the state of the property and highlight significant problems concerning the house.

Know the market conditions

Real estate can be unique, and understanding how it is today makes a lot of difference in the purchase. Moreover, you may find more people competing for homes, and thus, you will have to pay a higher price in a seller’s or buyer’s market. However, you may have to negotiate for the price. It will also enable you to move tactfully within the market to buy or make a competitive bid. You will also be able to know when prices are rising so you can move on that property before it becomes costly. Stay informed to make the best choice for your investment.

Review property history

Knowing who the previous owners were can give insight into the house. If the property becomes one that has constantly changed hands or was on the market for a long period, it may be raising some red flags. This may also be a great time to see if the property has had major repairs or renovations. Its history will be a better way to understand the potential problems. You can also look at public records listing all the previous sale prices and property tax information. This can give you a better sense of how the property's value has trended. 

Consider future development

Look for what's in the local government's plans, such as infrastructure improvements, new schools, or recently approved commercial developments. Construction impacts property values and overall living conditions in the neighborhood. Places expected to grow experience increased demand and price appreciation. Remember that often, new developments have downsides, such as traffic or noise. Balancing potential benefits with possible downsides will help you make a well-informed decision about your property purchase.

Don't rush the process

Take the time to drive around different neighborhoods and view many properties. Give yourself time to think over each option thoroughly. If you fasten the process, there is always a chance of making careless decisions that may be regretted later. Remember that this is not simply searching for a house; finding one that fits your life is the task. If you feel like you are being put in a position to decide now rather than later, take a step back and catch your breath. Also, share your thoughts with friends or family or ask them for advice.

Final words

To sum up, finding and buying a house is one of the most crucial decisions a person may ever have to make in life, owing to the numerous sacrifices made towards it. Be it a residential need or an investment opportunity, much has to be done in research about the local market and in determining financial readiness. Equipped with good facilities and preferably located in a location such as Solara Tower Dubai Residences, it presents a good option for homebuyers and investors. Take your time to evaluate your options and decide on something that is an informed choice in line with your long-term goals.

4 Steps to Get Pre-Approved for a Mortgage

Congratulations on targeting your dream home! However, before envisioning furniture layouts and paint schemes, the crucial initial task is securing pre-approval for a mortgage.

Pre-approval is like having a green light from lenders, letting you know exactly how much house you can afford. It strengthens your offer in a competitive market and shows sellers you’re a serious buyer.

Here’s a breakdown of the 4 key steps to get pre-approved for a mortgage:

Gather Your Documents:

To assess your borrowing power during the pre-approval process, you will need to provide certain financial documents. Here is a list of what you will probably be asked for:

Proof of income: Paystubs, W-2s, tax returns for the past two years.

Proof of assets: Bank statements, investment account statements.

Debt documentation: Credit card statements, loan information.

Check Your Credit Score:

Having a good credit score can greatly affect the interest rate you receive. Make sure to get a copy of your credit report from the three main bureaus and correct any mistakes.

Choose a Lender and Apply:

Conduct research and compare mortgage lenders to identify one that offers competitive rates and terms aligned with your requirements. Applications can be submitted through online, phone, or in-person channels.

The Pre-Approval Process:

The lender will examine your documents, confirm your credit score, and pre-approve you for a designated loan amount. The pre-approval letter will outline the highest loan amount you are eligible for and the approximate interest rate.

Pre-Approval: A Powerful Tool for Homebuyers

Being pre-approved offers several advantages:

Know your budget: You will gain a comprehensive grasp of the affordable housing options available to you.

Stronger offer: Getting pre-approved boosts your offer in a competitive market.

Streamlined home search: Understanding your budget enables you to concentrate on homes that align with your financial constraints.

Negotiation leverage: Securing pre-approval showcases commitment and can provide you with an advantage in negotiations.
