Congratulations! You have decided to purchase a home, or are thinking about buying one. You'll be joining the ranks of hundreds of families who realize that home ownership offers a number of benefits including building equity, saving for the future, and creating an environment for your family. When you own your own home, your hard-earned dollars contribute to your mortgage. The equity you earn is yours. Over time, your home will increase in value. Important Information: 1. When obtaining new financing, you must obtain homeowner’s insurance (and flood insurance if applicable) BEFORE closing. 2. If purchasing a condo or deed restricted home, association approval may be necessary; check with me, Alisa Rogers your REALTOR for instructions. 3. Call water, electric and telephone companies two days before closing to order service. 4. A few days before closing, you may take a “walk-through” tour of the home with me, Alisa Rogers your REALTOR. 5. Before closing, you will receive a copy of the Settlement Statement, which will tell you the amount of certified funds (money order or cashier’s check) you must bring to closing. *Bring your driver’s license or other photo ID to closing.* Important Telephone Numbers Telephone: Bell South (800) 753-2909 Electric: FPL (Florida Power & Light) (386)252-1541 or (800) 226-3545 Cable or Satellite Brighthouse Cable (386) 760-9950 or Direct TV (800) 481-6922 Drivers License: (386) 238-3140 Auto Tags: (386) 257-6013 Daytona News Journal: (386) 252-1511 Water: Trash pickup: Daytona Beach (386) 671-8100 Daytona Beach (386) 248-0771 Holly Hill (386) 248-9463 Holly Hill (386) 248-9432 Port Orange (386) 506-5720 Ormond Beach (386) 677-0800 South Daytona (386) 322-3002 Palm Coast (386) 986-2330 Ormond Beach (386) 676-3209 Port Orange (386) 506-5575 Palm Coast (386) 986-2360 Flagler Beach (386) 517-2000 In the following reports, you'll find the information you need to make a wise buying decision.
