So, you\u2019ve decided it\u2019s time to buy a home. What\u2019s next? What goes into buying a house? You have questions; I\u2019ve got your answers. I\u2019m going to walk you through my five-step process of buying a home. Let\u2019s jump in!<\/p>\n

Step One: Initial Chat<\/p>\n

Let’s chat! Before we jump into a car and go see houses, I like to talk with you to go over the process of buying a home. It may appear simple on the outside, but once you get into the process, you will quickly see that there are many important steps that you do not want to miss.<\/p>\n

At our first conversation about buying a home, I will walk you through the home-buying process and discuss any questions you have along the way. At the end of the conversation, I will give you some homework, such as talking with a lender about getting something called a pre-approval letter.<\/p>\n

Step Two: Planning Meeting<\/p>\n

At this meeting or conversation, we will go over what loan amount you\u2019re approved for from your lender, in addition to discussing the goals you have in a future home. Afterwards, we will create a showing plan and talk about the forms involved in writing an offer when you end up finding a home you like.<\/p>\n

Step Three: Finding a Home and Making an Offer<\/p>\n

Now, it’s time to see the homes! This is the fun part, in my opinion. \ud83d\ude42 By this point, I have set you up on a saved search in the MLS so that you can virtually favorite properties. As we get to see houses, we will eventually find one that you love! To help not get confused between houses, I like to provide you a Property Checklist so that you can keep track of what you like and don’t like about each home.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
