Buying Your Dream Home!

IMPORTANT INFO ABOUT BUYING YOUR DREAM HOME

Your understanding of the process for buying your dream home is our up-most concern and it is essential that we ask questions to understand your needs, wants, and ability to purchase.

SHOWINGS

We will assist you in selecting homes for viewing in depending on your needs and wants. Please feel free to inspect all aspects of a home during the showing and make notes regarding each home.

SHOWING COMMUNICATION 

Feedback is important! Comments help us understand what you’re looking for and should result in finding the perfect home!

THE OFFER

Prior to writing the offer, we will go over the entire offer line by line. We will discuss important topics including earnest money, inspections, testing, home sale contingency, financing contingency, radon, lead based paint, home warranty, and many other items.  Once we write an offer,  we will contact the listing agent and forward the offer who will present the offer to the sellers. The sellers will do one of the following:

• Accept the offer
• Reject the offer
• Write a counter offer (Should a counter offer be written, we will then discuss whether it is in your best interest to accept, reject, or counter back.)
• We will notify you once the offer is accepted.

MORTGAGE

It is  imperative you apply for a loan immediately after your offer is accepted. We can recommend many lenders to contact.

LOAN PROCESSING 

In order to expedite the process, have all your bank and credit card numbers available for your lender. We will communicate with the lender throughout the process to be be sure things are progressing.
