GET TO KNOW YOUR REALTOR

Before you start looking for a new home, you should analyze your needs and evaluate your financial capacity. It is a good idea to get pre-approved first. Being pre-approved means you know how much you can afford and what your payment would be.

MORTGAGE PRE-APPROVAL

You should meet with your mortgage lender to discuss your financial options and confirm that you are financially ready to buy a home. They will discuss what you can do to ensure that you get approved for a mortgage.

As your REALTOR, It’s my job to help you find your dream home. We will discuss the type of home you are looking for including the style, price and location.

BEGIN SEARCH FOR YOUR DREAM HOME

Make a list of your requirements and preferences for a home. As your REALTOR, I will schedule showings and help you find the perfect place. Not all real estate websites are the same. I have tools and systems to ensure you see every available home that meets your criteria.

MAKE AN OFFER

The home you choose today will have an impact on your lifestyle and your finances for years to come. Don’t rush your decision – when the perfect home comes. I’ll prepare an offer based on the price and terms that you determine.

BUYER – SELLER NEGOTIATION

In most cases the “Agreement of Purchase and Sales” provides you with a timeline to obtain financing as well as time to inspect the physical condition of the home. As your REALTOR, I will inform you of all your rights and responsibilities related to the contract. I will inform you on the best negotiation strategies for the property you are interested in.

P.S – Don’t worry! The negotiation might take a few tries to get it just right, But hang in there, You are on your way! It’s all about making the best outcome for you.

AGREED UPON TERMS

The contract will only become final once all the conditions have been met. At this point you and the seller have agreed to the price and terms. The home is effectively held for you.

FINALIZE DETAILS

If necessary, I will work with the cooperating agent to negotiate any repairs that were noted during the home inspection. Your work-through will be scheduled prior to closing as well. 

You will be finalizing your loan, reviewing your documents and discussing the findings from the inspection. As your REALTOR, I will be managing this entire process for you.

CLOSING

The closing is the transfer of funds and ownership. This is the final stage of the transaction. A lawyer typically acts as an independent third party to facilitate the closing. Once the closing is final, the lawyer will register the transaction.
