What to Expect When Buying a Home

Are you thinking of buying a home and don't know where to start?

Purchasing a home is most likely the largest investment you're ever going to make. You'll want an experienced professional with you every step of the way to ensure that your best interests are always protected.

Our team is consistently among the top 5% of local agents and we've helped hundreds of buyers just like you.

Here's what you can expect when starting your home buying journey.

First, you'll want to make sure that you're qualified to purchase a home by connecting with a lender. Your lender will help you understand what types of loans you qualify for, what your payments will be and what steps you'll need to take to finalize your financing. 

Keep in mind that who you get your loan with matters just as much as how much you are pre-approved for or what your interest rate is. Working with a lender that has strong realtor relationships, a positive reputation and the ability to get things done quickly, could make the difference between you getting the house you've fallen in love with or losing out to a more competitive buyer.

Once you're pre-approved, we'll start shopping to find you a home that fits your goals and dreams. Along the way, we'll serve as your guide to make sure that all of your questions are answered so that you can feel confident in your purchase. After you've found your ideal home, we will help you negotiate an offer using a full toolbox of competitive strategies to help your offer stand out amongst the crowd. After acceptance, our team will get to work organizing all of the next steps including: payment of earnest money, inspections, title services and assisting your lender.

It's important to us that you not only find a home that you love, but also that it's a wise investment. We know that life brings change; when your life changes and it's time to make a move, we want to make sure that the home you purchased isn't problematic for you to sell.

From inspection issues to appraisals and eventually the closing process, there are many moving pieces within each transaction. Give our team a call; we can address your unique situation and walk you through each step, ensuring that you make the right decisions from the start of the search until we hand you the keys to your new home.

Our team diligently updates you on the status of your purchase and ensures that we don't miss any contractual deadlines. Our team provides a full-time client coordinator dedicated specifically to overseeing your transaction and keeping you informed throughout the process.

And don't forget, the seller typically pays our fees. So, it doesn't cost you anything to utilize our services. Let's talk soon.
