Buyer's Guide

We’ll sit down to discuss your dream home in person or on a video call. We'll dive into what makes your perfect home. Paint me a picture of your ideal living space and the neighborhood that calls to you. What are your deal-breakers? Maybe you're after a dedicated workspace, a sprawling backyard, or a place nearby public transit. Perhaps you've got your heart set on that one street with the gorgeous canopy of trees. Now's the time to let your imagination run wild - we can pare things down later. I'll chime in with my two cents, and we'll sketch out a rough blueprint of the home that's waiting for you out there.

If you've already got the green light from a lender and are pre-approved, we'll dive into your budget sweet spot. We'll pinpoint a figure that you feel comfortable paying monthly. No pre-approval yet? No sweat. I've got a list of top-notch local lenders. These folks aren't just number crunchers - they're the kind of allies you want when it's time to make an offer on your dream home.

This part's where the fun really kicks in - it's like a treasure hunt, but for your future home! I'll be your eyes and ears on the ground, scouting properties during broker tours, combing through listings, and keeping my ear to the ground for those hush-hush off-market gems.

Meanwhile, you'll get access to a curated collection of homes in your price range. It's like your personal real estate playlist - swipe right on the ones that catch your eye, and we'll chat about them.

When a place really piques your interest, we'll go see it in person. Think of me as your home detective during these visits. I'll be pointing out the nitty-gritty stuff you might not notice - is the roof holding up? How's the foundation looking? What's the neighborhood vibe? Are the schools up to snuff?

It's a two-way street, though. While I'm teaching you the ins and outs of house hunting, you'll be schooling me on your likes and dislikes. It's like we're fine-tuning our home-finding radar together. By the end, we'll be a well-oiled house-hunting machine!

When you've found "the one," we'll be prepared with a game plan. No eleventh-hour surprises here - we'll have already combed through the property disclosure packet with a fine-tooth comb. I'll be digging into recent sales of similar homes nearby and give you my two cents on what number might give us the edge, but you're the boss - the final call is all yours.When it's go-time, we'll craft your offer. Then, I'll step into the ring as your champion, ready to go to bat in negotiations. I'll pull out all the stops to make it yours. It's not just about closing a deal; it's about opening the door to your new home.

Once you've clinched the deal, we'll toast to your victory, and I'll set the wheels in motion. We're entering the home stretch now - the escrow phase. Don't sweat the details just yet; we'll dive deep into this process multiple times. In a nutshell, this is when the money and property title change hands. Think of me as your personal guide through this paperwork jungle - I'll be decoding the legalese and fielding your questions every step of the way. Expect a flurry of DocuSign emails, but don't worry, I'll be your digital wingman.

The grand finale? When the ink's dry on the deed, I'll meet you for the most satisfying handoff of all - your new house keys. It's not just a set of keys; it's the key to the next exciting chapter of your life. Ready to turn the page?
