OFW Home Buyer Ultimate Life Hacks
Every Filipino has a clear picture in their mind when they think about having their own dream house. Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) are modern-day heroies that endure so much time working away from home to be able to provide their family’s dream house someday. For them, providing shelter, food and necessities for their loved ones will always be worth all their sacrifices.
When deciding to buy their dream house, many OFW home-buyers experience the problem of where to begin. Let’s admit it: envisioning your dream house is easy, but the actual planning and preparations are harder when money is involved. To guide every OFW homebuyers, here are some helpful hacks that you may consider:
- Estimate the cost of your future home
Start by considering the cost of your future home. It usually starts by knowing where you want to live. Always research on the real estate value of the area where you desire to build your home and project the current figures to determine the price of your dream house. Estimating the cost of the house compared to having a broad and abstract goal will make it easier for you to plan and save. After finalizing the amount, the next step is for you to save money on investments that will help you purchase your dream home.
2. Visualize your goal of home-ownership.
It is essential to envision your dream of home-ownership to prevent spending on other things that are not necessary. Motivate yourself to work hard for you and your family’s dream home to come into reality. Get all the motivation and inspiration by displaying a picture of your dream house or even your family’s picture to help remind you of the goal that you want to achieve.
3. Always control your cash flow.
Ensure that you are not spending more than what you earn. Keep track of your expenses and find more ways to save more money. You must also focus on different ways to improve cash flow. Do not limit your finances to what you earn but expand it by having small businesses, online selling, and other investments that are safe and beneficial for your savings. Having multiple streams of income will help you purchase your future home.
4. Have a short-term and life term goal.
It is important to have short-term and long-term life goals. Always have an action plan in mind and imaging yourself and your family five to 10 years from now. Start by taking small stems and try to achieve your short-term goals first. Once you achieve them, try to look at the bigger picture and make an action to turn your long-term goal into a reality.
