I think we should consider buying a house!
Whether you are upsizing/downsizing or a first-time home buyer, there are many details to think through to ensure buying a house is a good decision!
Our team starts with helping you analyze the details around your life scenario so you can make a wise decision! Our experience, both in life and professionally, will help you in answering your questions and we will educate you on the process of buying!
How will I pay for a house?
Your first step in making a wise decision is to develop your financing plan! Do not be afraid! This is simply a time to gather information.
Our team will walk you through the steps for funding the house purchase. If a loan is needed, we will connect you with a knowledgeable lender. The lender will look at your current financial situation and determine the best loan product for purchasing a house. If you need time to prepare for a house purchase, the lender will show you what needs to be done before you can get a loan.
I AM PREAPPROVED FOR A LOAN!!! Now what?
AWESOME! We get to go shopping! This is the fun part as you now get to tour houses and find your next home!
Our team is ready to show you houses in your price range and help you determine if the condition of the house is suitable. We are experienced in educating you on the properties features and systems. This will help you feel more confident in deciding to write an offer.
Our team will work with you on putting together the terms of the offer to ensure the best negotiation possible in getting the contract!
MY OFFER GOT ACCEPTED!!!
This is exciting news! However, slow down a bit as you have a house inspection to go through amongst other contract terms to complete.
Our team will help you schedule a home inspection with a licensed home inspector. The inspector will thoroughly check systems making sure they are in proper working order as well as check the structure for any areas of concern. After the inspector issues you a report, our team will help you decide how to proceed with repair negotiations, if needed, or any other items that need to be addressed with the seller.
Everything looks good so let’s close on the house!
You are just a few weeks away from finalizing the house purchase. The title company, lender, listing/buyer’s agent and you are now finishing up all the paperwork and conditions so the property can be transferred over to you.
Our team is working diligently with everyone ensuring all details are getting completed in a timely way so we can have a stress-free close. Communication is key! It is an important value of our team’s service to you and the professionals we work with!
