Every house is unique, and with such a significant investment, you deserve a strong advocate representing your interests and a knowledgeable guide throughout the process.

Let’s schedule a call to discuss your hopes and dreams and give you insights into the buying process. I can answer any questions that might be living in you or that come up along the way. There is no silly question in your real estate journey!

01 Meet with your agent
Get support and guidance from the beginning. Sit down with an agent to discuss your goals, timeline, and criteria. Learn more about the buying process and get all of your questions answered.
02 Pre-approval
I can connect you with a lender who fits your needs and circumstances. It’s important that you receive a pre-approval letter from a local lender as many sellers prefer a local lender.
03 Visit Properties
Add your pricing strategy. Be sure to include important details like value, length of service, and why it’s unique.
04 Write an Offer
Making an offer to purchase a property is a critically important step in your process. You will be glad to have an agent by your side making sure that every detail is accurate and that you are in the best position possible to get your offer accepted, while protecting your interests.
05 Escrow
When your offer is accepted it enters into escrow. What this means is that a neutral third party (the escrow agent) receives all of the contracts, loan documents, the title on the property, and the good faith deposit. The escrow agent is in charge of divvying up costs, tax fees, funds, etc.
06 Inspections and Disclosures
During this critical step we will get inspections done on the house and review all disclosures. You’ll want someone to help explain all of the disclosures to you. I will coordinate any inspections that we determine are necessary and advisable. I'll meticulously review inspection reports and identify any potential concerns before you move forward.
07 Closing and moving!
Congratulations! After all of the inspections and any other contingencies have been checked off, loan has come through, and the escrow agent has completed their due diligence, you close! You will receive the keys to your house at a pre-scheduled time and then you get to move in and start enjoying your new home! I can help connect you with moving support and any other services that you might need.
