Question:
“I’ve been researching the web about buying a home. There is SO MUCH information out there, much of it contradictory. I’ve learned a few things. But on some topics, I’m actually more confused than when I started. Is there one website you recommend that’s got accurate, useful info?”
Answer:
I think it’s great that you’re educating yourself.
Unfortunately, I’ve yet to find one single website where I agree with most of what they say.
In fact, I’m constantly amazed to read so much blatantly wrong information on major sites that you’ve heard of.
Why so much bad info?
There are probably several reasons:
- Honest difference of opinion
- Different geographic areas have different real estate practices
- Much of what you read is NOT written by agents “in the trenches” helping people buy and sell homes. Instead, they’re written by people who make their living writing web content.
