The home you buy just has to feel right!
It has been my experience that a house is not your dream home because of its size or color. It is about the how you feel when you walk in the door. It is a good idea to narrow down your search by location, driving by to see the neighborhood and getting a feel before scheduling a showing. But, when it is the final decision, it is about your life, your dreams and how this home fits with your family.
After the contract is accepted. The process then begins and that is when a good agent is needed. Negotiations, time limits, due diligence periods, inspections, appraisals are only a part of it. A good lender and other contacts are needed. An agent with experience is worth your investment for peace of mind and knowing you are making the right decision.
This is where I come in. I am able to offer the explanations and answers to the many questions. If I do not know them, I seek legal assistance from my Broker and the many professionals and legal teams I associate with. In this changing market, I make it my business to stay on top of the changing regulations, lending laws and make sure you are getting the legal advice you deserve. I can also help you team up with the financial lender that will help meet your needs according to the circumstances. Another words, I try to give you a red carpet treatment with professionalism 24/7.
Here are some things to keep in mind before doing your search:
Meet with a lender to find out how much money you need to put down and what price range you qualify for. Decide where you want your monthly payment to be and look in that price range. Do the math, it pays off! Getting pre approved can put you in a much stronger negotiating position beause it shows the seller you are committed and financially capable.
**Commit to working with a proven buyer's agent like me that puts your best interests first!
Talk to your agent about specifics so you are on the same page...would you look at "fixer uppers", do you want new, are schools important, do you want a specific location, is HOA important???? This helps zero in on your dream home.
** I will narrow down your search before you start wasting your time. Properties sell quick in this market, and time is of the essence."
List your properties and prepare to compromise. Make a list of your "must haves".
**I can help you achieve BUYING your home and juggling the process to make it smooth.
