Ready to Purchase A Home?

You’re thinking of buying a home. How exciting! But then you’ve heard some of the horror stories – multiple offers, sales prices much higher than the listed price, all-cash offers. Rest assured, I can help.

Here are the 5 steps we'll take together.

Let's Talk Find a Home

Step 1: Initial Consultation & Planning

I always start with a deep understanding of the buying process which include your rights as a buyer and the terms associated with buying (contingencies, escrows, disclosures – oh my!)
Determine your wants, needs and desires – what’s important for you in a new home
Establish your search criteria and a plan of action for home searching

Step 2: Search for a Home & Get Pre-Approved

Sign-up for automatic email alerts
Begin viewing properties
Connecting you with top-notch lenders who can help to set a budget for you and understand the costs involved in buying a home to obtain loan pre-qualification/approval
Re-evaluate your search criteria as you view different homes
Continue searching until you find the perfect home
Reviewing disclosure packets (inspection reports and information that the seller must tell you) and overall just helping you to understand what it is you’re buying

Step 3: Submit An Offer

Crafting an offer that sets you apart from the others – it’s not always about price
Submit offer to purchase home to seller’s agent
Discuss and clarify proposed terms and conditions
Negotiate offer including possible counter offers
Negotiating on your behalf with the agent representing the seller
Reach final agreement

Step 4: Complete Settlement Process
