Buyers – Start Here.
-
1. Dream Big (and Budget Smart)
Think about what your ideal home looks like—location, size, style, and must-haves. Then, get real with your budget. A lender can help you understand how much house you can afford, so you can start dreaming within reach.
-
2. Get Pre-Approved
Getting pre-approved is like getting your golden ticket to the housing market before you begin touring. Sellers love buyers who mean business, and this step proves you’re serious. (P.S. I can connect you with a great lender!)
-
3. The Search Begins
This is the fun part! We’ll tour homes, compare options, and figure out what truly feels like “the one.” Be ready to discover a few surprises about what you like along the way—it’s all part of the journey!
-
4. Dive into the Disclosures
Before making an offer, we’ll review the home’s disclosures together. I’ll carefully check inspections, repair histories, and any potential concerns to ensure there are no surprises. You’ll know exactly what you’re walking into!
-
5. Make Your Move (aka The Offer)
Found the perfect place? I’ll carefully craft a competitive offer that gets noticed. From nailing the right price to negotiating terms, I’ll advocate fiercely on your behalf to give you the best chance to secure the home you love.
-
6. Paperwork.
Yes, there’s a mountain of paperwork, but don’t worry—that’s where I come in! I’ll walk you through every document, making sure nothing feels overwhelming. You’ll feel confident and clear at each step of the way.
-
7. Navigating Contingencies
Once your offer is accepted, we’ll tackle any contingencies—like loan approval, appraisal, inspections, or insurance. I’ll guide you through each step, working closely with escrow to ensure everything stays on track.
-
8. Closing Day
This is it—the final step! On closing day, you’ll sign the necessary documents, and we’ll make it official. It’s an exciting moment, and I’ll be there to ensure everything goes smoothly, so you can start enjoying your new home.
