A lot of home buyers purchase homes only to find out that there a lot more hidden fees than they thought. The sale price of the home is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the money that you'll be spending.

Realizing that there will be extra fees in your purchase is important because you want to buy a home with plenty of room to spare financially. Here are four hidden fees that many buyers do not think about.

1. Property taxes and homeowner's insurance
2. Heating, cooling, and utility costs
3. You may want to make upgrades when you purchase, and those can add up
4. Furnishings may very well be the largest expense that's not considered

All of these hidden fees and expenses can add up quickly, so you need to prepare for them before you buy a home. I haven't even mentioned that you'll also have to pay for home inspections, title searches, and other closing costs.
