Step 1: Let’s Chat

Whether you want to sit down at a coffee shop or simply pick up the phone is completely up to you. We’ll dig deep into what your motivation and timeline is as well as exactly what you’re looking for.

Step 2: Pre-approval

One of the most crucial parts of starting the home buying process is getting pre-approved. If you’ve already gotten pre-approved, high five! If not, don’t sweat it. We have a local business we’d be happy to refer you to.

Step 3: Send You Houses

It’s one thing to set up a showing for a house that you originally inquired about, but we’re constantly striving to find 
you the best match possible. We take your timeline, wants, needs, and desires into serious consideration and send  you exclusive listings that we think you’ll love.

Step 4: The Fun Part

It’s time to go look at houses! We encourage you to keep an open mind because the more houses you see, the more your checklist can evolve. You quickly figure out what you love, hate, and can’t live without. Plus, it’s a lot of fun.

My goal is to provide you with the most personalized service possible, meticulously designed to help you navigate the process of buying your dream home. I am dedicated to understanding your unique needs and preferences, ensuring that every step of the journey is tailored to achieve your ultimate home-buying aspirations.

Step 5: Make An Offer

We’ll do intense market research so that we’re aware of what the price range looks like for a similar style house in similar condition. We understand this is a huge decision for you and the last thing we want is you overpaying or  settling. We’ll break down the terms and simplify them, allowing you to understand all the intricacies and plan out your next 45-60 days.

Step 6: CLOSE!

Congratulations and welcome to the neighborhood! You’re officially the owner of the house of your dreams. Now it’s time to really make it feel like home.

Congratulations!

After signing the final paperwork to complete the purchase, you are now the owner of a new house. It may take a few days for your loan to be funded once the paperwork has been returned to the lender, but once that check is delivered to the seller, you’ll be all set to move into the home of your dreams.
