Let’s get to know each other! Once you’re ready to work with our team, we’ll meet together for a Buyer Consultation to focus your search and determine what you want and need in a home. Our buyer consultation usually take 1.5 hours with tons of information.
We’ll introduce you to our mortgage partner, who can help you determine your buying price range with confidence. Be prepared to dig into paperwork during this part of the process such as pay stubs, W2’s, and tax returns. The lender will do a full review and then tell you what you will be able to borrow in order to purchase a home. This is a vital step in the home buying process!
Our agents get to know you — Need to move for a job? Want a shorter commute? Getting married? Having a baby? Need to upgrade or downsize? At this stage in the process, we’ll send you notifications about the listings that you’re most likely to be excited about. Be sure to let us know if one (or more) jumps out at you so that we can skip to the next step and schedule a viewing. be there for you every step of the way.
Here’s where the buying process gets really fun! We’ll go to local open houses together and schedule viewings of the homes that you’ve loved from our listing alerts. We’ll talk about how the budget will work and make sure that we find you the perfect home. With each house you are interested, we will sit down and go over the value of the house with you together. We do due diligence for you as well.
When you’re ready to make an offer, your agent will present a written offer to the seller. And while everyone loves getting their offer accepted right away, the seller could come back to us with a counter offer, or reject your initial offer all together. We’re happy to walk you through each of these possibilities and exactly how to handle them. Once the offer is accepted, it’s time to get your under contract in order and move forward to the next step!
The sellers accepted your offer, and the home is going through inspection first. The Inspection makes sure that everything in the home is functioning properly and there are no major issues inside. We then will get initial contract and attorney will review the contract with you. After every detail terms and condition agreed and both party signed, we are under contract.
Get excited because it’s time to close on your home! This process includes going through all of the final paperwork and ordering title report. We title cleaned and mortgage approved, it’s time to signing your name (a lot!). Don’t forget to bring all of the paperwork you’ve collected along the way and your down payment.
