It all begins with a dream. But making that dream a reality can be a little overwhelming, even if it’s not your first time buying a home.
A real estate agent can help guide you through each step of the buying process and make sure you arrive at your desired destination. And did you know that as a buyer, the services your agent provides cost you nothing?
Below is an overview of a few of the primary steps in the process of buying a home.
Pre-Approval
Talking to a lender and getting pre-approved is an important first step. By providing some basic information about your income, savings, and debt, a lender can assist you in reviewing financing options, a monthly payment amount you can afford, and what you can expect for down payment requirements and closing costs. If you don’t have a lender, I can refer you to a reputable lender that can help you with your specific needs.
Choosing a Home
I will provide an automated search that will display homes currently available in your desired area as well as send notifications when new listings come on to the market in real time. We will review details like schools, condition and local amenities to find homes that fit your vision. Ready to go look? I will arrange everything from date and time to plotting the most efficient route to take if you want to go look at more than one home. I will also provide everything you need to comply with current COVID-19 guidelines.
Making an Offer
Find the one? Together we will research recent sales in the area to determine a solid offer price. In addition, there are many terms that may be important to the seller over and above the offer price. I work well with selling agents to uncover the seller’s needs and then structure the offer in a way that makes it stand out.
Closing
Escrow can be a complicated process filled with information and questions. I will be there with expert support every step of the way insuring you understand everything that is placed in front of you before you sign. Even after escrow has closed and you’ve moved into your new home, I will be there to help you with questions or concerns. It’s my goal to be your trusted source of information and problem resolution.
