One thing to keep in mind is if you are buying a new home and plan on using a bank outside this area, they must be very quick to process/approve the loan and be ready to close. Unless they have changed the sales contract in the past couple of years, you must be ready to close 30 days after you sign the contract on a new home. I would strongly suggest getting pre-approved (not pre-qualified) for a mortgage prior to looking for a new home.
