Congratulations on starting the process of buying your home! This timeline will guide you through the steps required. Rick and Terry will be providing insights on each step. You don't need to follow it exactly, but, we do recommend you consider each step especially if you are a first time buying.
The first step in buying a new home is for us to identify the neighborhoods you want to live in. Save your favorite homes, then add them to a collection – where we can comment and collaborate.
Why should you get pre-approved? Simple – to determine what you can comfortably afford. It also allows us to move quickly when we find the right house.
Let's arrange to visit the homes you're most interested in, together and in-person, to determine the best fit for you.
Once you’ve narrowed down your list and have a clear favorite, we're ready to make an offer on a home.
I'm ready to help you navigate all of the steps that lead to a successful close.
A professional home inspection, which discloses vital information about a home, is a must before finalizing your purchase.
Home insurance protects your new home and belongings from accidental damages. Make sure you insure your home with a plan that fits.
Secure a home warranty to maintain the essential, major systems and appliances that can be costly to repair out of pocket.
Your new home is close at hand! Let's get ready to gather the required documents, sign the paperwork, and hire a mover.
