Home Buying & Selling Guide 🏘️
Here you'll find everything you need to know—from your first steps to closing day. Whether you're buying or preparing to sell, here's what to expect throughout the process!
First, What is a Consultation?
It's a conversation with the topic of your home goals, questions you may have, and procuring a plan that fits those goals! A Consultation is a chance for us to get to know each other and make sure you're confident moving forward!
Before the exciting part happens, it's important to know your budget. A trusted lender can help determine what you're qualified for and will provide a Pre-Approval Letter, this also shows sellers that your intentions for buying are serious.
Now comes the exciting part; Home Searching! ✨ We'll explore homes that fit your desires and criteria, schedule in-person showings, and narrow down your favorites until you find your home that fits you!
Once you've found your home, together we will prepare a Competitive Offer. I will continue to be at your side every step of the way to assist you through negotiations and explain each step throughout the process so you're up to date on what's happening!
After your offer is accepted, a home typically goes under an Inspection & Appraisal Process. This process helps ensure that you're making an informed purchase before moving forward.
Congratulations!! 🎉 We made it. On Closing Day you'll sign the final paperwork, receive your keys, and officially become a home-owner! A milestone that is exciting for every party involved but especially, for you!
Buying A Home 🔑
Selling Your Home 🏡
Every home—and every seller—is unique!
A Consultation is a conversation we'll have getting to know each other and discussing your goals, timeline, and what to expect throughout the selling process.
Next, we'll go over simple ways to help make your home have a good impression on those looking to buy! Decluttering, making small improvements, or getting it ready for photos and showings are all ways to make that first impression, a lasting one!
Together, we will determine a Competitive Listing Price based on market conditions and comparable homes. Once this is done and everything is ready, your home will be listed and marketed to potential buyers!
It's getting real!!
Potential buyers will begin to tour your home whether through open houses or by appointment. When Offers start to generate, I'll help you go over and review them carefully and negotiate the terms that best fit your goals!
Once an offer is presented then accepted by you, the buyer will typically complete inspections, appraisals, and finalize financing. I'll be here to help keep you on track and informed on everything throughout the process.
We made it!! 🎉
On Closing Day, you'll sign the final documents, complete the sale, and officially hand over the keys! Congratulations on selling your home!
