So you want to purchase your first La Jolla home!   Congratulations!   The fun is going to start with thinking about the La Jolla home of your dreams.

• Get a copy of your credit rating. 
• Evaluate your finances and know what you can actually afford for a monthly mortgage payment.  Don't be tempted to go above amount or you risk putting your self in harms way.
• Determine if the above two these two considerations match up with the price range you are targeting in La Jolla.
• Research your lending institution carefully - you'll be doing business with them for a long time. 
• Try to narrow your La Jolla location choices so that you are not all over the map.  In today's La Jolla market this should ensure that you will have enough choices and end up in the area that is beneficial to your needs.
• Go on the web and look at listings so you have a better understanding of what is out there, what features you must have and those that are not important to you.  This will give you an idea of what type of La Jolla home will suit your needs.
• When you select a La Jolla Realtor make sure they have experience in your local market and that you can easily work with.  They represent your interests and should make all offers on your behalf.
• Again, don't buy more La Jolla house than you can afford.
