The new year is a great time to think about budgeting for homeownership. When you do this correctly, you can get into your own home more quickly than you might expect.

Tip #1: Get a clear picture of your finances.
Tip #2: Reduce your monthly spending.
Tip #3: Practice making a house payment.
Tip #4: Set up automatic transfers.
Tip #5: Build a strong credit profile.

Buying a home isn’t complicated, but it requires planning and discipline. A little budgeting here, a credit review there, and a curb in spending can get you where you want to be quickly.

Protecting your credit score during the homebuying process starts with knowing your credit score. You can pull your free credit report at annualcreditreport.com, which provides information from all three nationwide credit bureaus: Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. These credit bureaus are required to give you a free credit report once every 12 months.
