Buy a New Home!

Your first step is to consult with a lender who will help you find the ideal loan structure that fits your budget. They will determine how much home you can afford and explore different financing options until you find the best fit. Along the way, they’ll educate you on various loan types and down payment assistance programs. If you’re not quite ready to qualify for your dream home, they’ll provide guidance on what steps to take to get there. I will connect you with the right loan officer to match your unique financial situation, ensuring you’re set up for success.

Once you know your budget, I will set up a customized home search tailored to your specific wants and needs. You can apply multiple filters to ensure you only see properties that truly match your criteria. You'll start with a selection of homes to tour, and from there, new listings will be automatically sent to you as they hit the market—so you never miss an opportunity. I will personally accompany you to each showing, providing insights and answering your questions on the spot, making the process smooth and stress-free.

You’ve found the home you love—now it’s time to make an offer! I’ll start by conducting a detailed market analysis to ensure your offer is both competitive and positioned to maximize your equity. Then, I’ll craft a strong, well-structured contract and submit it, along with all necessary documents, to the seller’s agent. Whether negotiations happen before or after the offer is presented, I’ll handle every detail on your behalf while keeping you informed at every step. My goal is to secure the best possible terms and make the entire process seamless and stress-free for you.

​Once your offer is accepted, the clock starts ticking. You'll have about 7–10 days (called the option period) to complete a home inspection and request any necessary repairs. I’ll connect you with a trusted inspector, attend the inspection, and help you interpret the report. If repairs or concessions (seller credits instead of repairs) are needed, I’ll handle the negotiations and submit your requests. Once an agreement is reached, I’ll draft an amendment to finalize the updates in the contract.

​Once the option period ends, your earnest money deposit (typically 1% of the sale price) is non-refundable unless the seller breaches the contract or your financing falls through within the agreed timeframe. From here, your main focus is ensuring your loan is approved by staying in touch with your lender. If any issues arise, I will work closely with the seller's agent, lender, and title company to resolve them while keeping you informed. Once you're officially 'cleared to close,' it’s time for the final step—signing the paperwork and celebrating your new home! I’ll be there to congratulate you on this exciting milestone.
