A STEP BY STEP GUIDE TO
THE BUYING PROCESS

CONSULTATION Before starting the process, I will meet with you to understand your needs and expectations while answering any of your questions. I will also discuss market conditions and provide recommendations given your circumstances. Once you are confident in my work, we can enter into an agency relationship and sign the Buyers Exlusive Agency Agreement along with other forms. |

PLAN YOUR FINANCES Buying property can be exciting and few joys can match the pride of owning a home. To ensure the entire buying process is hassle-free, I always recommend my clients get a mortgage preapproval at the beginning, since this lets you know how much you can afford, what your interest rates will be, and what your monthly mortgage payments will look like. |

VIEWING PROPERTIES Once you know your financial boundaries and your preapproval mortgage amount, it is time to start searching for your dream home! I will provide you with listings according to your needs and specifications before we start making appointments to view properties. |

Now it is time to provide your deposit and decide on a date t osign closing documents with your lawyer. At this point, you should start thinking about arrangements for movers, transferring utilities, and forwarding your mail. |
 |
POSSESSION & MOVING IN You are finally at the end of the buying process! Be sure to get things organized well in advance of moving to minimize stress. I will be there to give you the keys to your new home! |
