7 Steps to Buying a House with Normandy Homes
Step 1: Make Your Wish List
The first step in your homebuying process is to clearly outline what you’re looking for in a home. What are your must-haves, and where are you willing to compromise?
Ask yourself these questions:
- How much space do I need (bedrooms, bathrooms, etc.)?
- Where do I want to live? What school districts or amenities matter to me?
- Do I prefer a modern layout, or am I drawn to traditional designs?
Start your research on the Normandy Homes website, where you can view home plans and explore existing homes and community options that match your vision.
Step 2: Determine Your Budget
Understanding your budget is one of the most important steps. Work with a lender to get pre-approved for a mortgage, as this will give you a clear idea of what you can afford—and where.
Key considerations include:
- Your overall price range for purchasing a home.
- Additional expenses like closing costs and homeowners’ association (HOA) fees.
- Your preferred areas within Dallas-Fort Worth and current market prices there.
Normandy also offers select savings promotions on certain homes and closing costs, making that dream home even more achievable.
Pro tip: Speaking with Normandy Homes’ preferred lender can simplify the financing process and unlock additional benefits.
