I take the buying process as seriously as my buyers do. When you decide to purchase your next home, make sure you hire someone whom you can trust and someone who has your interest in mind. Buying a home is one of the most important purchases and biggest investments you will make, so make sure you have the right agent who can provide you with the experience and the service you deserve.
When you understand current market conditions, you are better able to position yourself as a Buyer. It helps to know if you are in a Seller's, Buyer's or Balanced market. In a Buyer's market there is a lot more competition and Buyers have plenty of choices and may have more room to negotiate, forcing Sellers to be very competitive when setting their asking price. However, not all Sellers are in a possition that they can not negotiate as much as they would like because of their payoff.

Here are some of the steps I will take to find your perfect home:
Determine Your Wants and Needs This is the single most important step. By asking you a series of questions I will establish what you are looking for, but you have to be honest with yourself. No need wasting your time looking at homes with "at least" 2-3 acres and buy a home in a subdivision. My goal is to not waste your time by looking at properties that are not in your price range or homes that don't meet your needs. Throughout the buying process I will maintain your confidentiality and represent your best interests.
Help You Get Pre-Qualified
This step will show you how much you can afford. Because of ever changing interest rates, your price range may change. This is accomplished by speaking with your financial institution and establishing what monthly payments you will be comfortable with. Your top price may be $150,000 today, but $157,000 next month, or just the opposite.
Home Shopping We will use every available method to locate a property that matches your search parameters. This will include properties listed with our office, offered through other real estate companies, as well as unlisted properties. We will disclose all known facts about the property that are likely to affect your decision. When we find the home that meets your criteria, I will assist you in writing an offer and act as a liason between you and the seller. |
