We strive to give you the best of the best. In the years that we've spent in the industry, homebuyers have always asked us “What do I need to do when I buy a house?” We've composed a step-by-step guide that organizes the buying process to make buying a house simple and fun!
We will have a comprehensive buyer consultation with you. We want to have an understanding of why you are moving, where you’d like to move to and what are the most important attributes you are looking for in your new home. We will review the home buying process and make sure you understand the documents you will be signing.
Will you need to finance your new home or will you be paying cash? Understanding how you will be funding the purchase of your house well in advance will strengthen your negotiation position and give you the opportunity to make smart decisions suitable to your lifestyle. We have great relationships with financial experts who will be able to assist you in discovering your options.
You are now ready to preview the top properties that we have selected together to find your new home! You will be set up on MLS alerts so new listings are sent straight to your inbox. After browsing homes online and visiting the ones you really love in person, we'll get together and decide which home is the one!
We'll offer our professional opinion of value and help you write a compelling offer, which is important in such a competitive market. Lucky for you, we're experts in this market and you can count on us to always do what's in your best interest. Once your offer has been accepted by the seller, there are still conditions or are subject to the buyer verifying information such as a home inspection or getting a financial commitment from a lender.
Once all inspections have been completed, you will meet with your attorney who will review the formal contract of sale. Your attorney will discuss any concerns that stand out in the contract.
Once the contract of sale is fully executed, your mortgage company will process the loan and the appraisal will be ordered. Your attorney will order a title and municipal search. Your lender will let you know when the loan has been approved and you are ready to close.
Typically, 24 hours prior to closing, you will have an opportunity to view the home once more before taking possession. Together, we will confirm all mechanicals are in working order, the house is free of leaks and all garbage and debris has been removed.
Congratulations! It's time to close on your dream home. On your closing day, the final paperwork is signed and the home is officially handed over to you. You'll receive the keys and that's it…. you're officially a new homeowner!
