What I will do for YOU!

This is a description of the basic process you will go through when you work with me to buy your next home. At the bottom of the page is a link to an information request form that you can fill out to let me know what your basic needs are. I can use that information to send you information about homes that might meet your needs. I have the knowledge of the real estate market here in this area and the negotiating skills to help make buying your next home as comfortable and easy as possible.


The Meeting: It is important that we sit down and discuss the buying process together in person. We will talk through the phases of a typical transaction, discuss your wants and needs as they relate to real estate, and generally just get to know one another. I will outline how I will coordinate with each of  the parties involved to help the transaction go as smoothly as possible.

The Search: Once I have a good idea of what you want I will search for all the MLS listings that match your criteria. After we preview the properties to eliminate the bad ones we will go see the rest together. This is when both of us will learn the most about what you like and what you don't.

   I listen to YOU and tailor the search to meet YOUR needs!

The Extended Search: If you don't find anything you like from the houses that are currently on the market, then we must wait for your house to come onto the market. At this point we must be ready to act quickly.

The Process: Throughout the time I am searching I will try and send you as many digital photos as possible in order to eliminate as many properties as possible and save you as much time as possible.  When something looks interesting we will go see it in person.

The Offer: Yea! We have found a house that you want to make an offer on. At this point I will take enough time to explain all of the contracts to you in detail! What they mean, what they are for and why I am using them. I will advise you on all aspects of the contract so that you can make the best decision on how much to pay, how much earnest money to put down, what to ask for after the inspection and etc. You will need someone with strong negotiating skills to make sure that your interests and needs NOT THE SELLER'S are represented in the transaction. I will be there every step of the way!

Acceptance: Congratulations! You have made an offer on the house you love and the seller accepted the offer. We now have a binding contract. We only have a couple of minor obstacles left before the house is yours.

Inspection: This is the best education that you can get about your new house. A qualified inspector of your choice will be able to tell you many, many useful things about  your new home. He or she is also there as a safety net should there be something seriously wrong with the house causing you to disapprove of the inspection. At this point we can still negotiate with the seller to repair what ever the defect is.

Appraisal: Your lender will send some one out to make sure that the house is worth what you paid for it. There is rarely a problem here but should the house not appraise at the sale price you would not be forced to buy it.

Signing: The escrow company will schedule you to sign all the documents a few days before your closing date. This insures that all the documents are ready to record on the scheduled closing date.

Closing: Congratulations. Here comes the moving van. After you sign all the documents and the funds are available to the seller then the house becomes yours. Before this date you must have your homeowners insurance.
