Your Team
When buying a house, the more you know, the easier it will be. Proper planning will help you to focus on what you want most. Having the right team will help to take the stress out of the process.
Buyers Agent
A Buyers Agent is there to assist you with all the steps in the real estate transaction. They will also be able to give recommendations on the rest of the team that will assist you through the Buying Process.
Lender
A good Lender will discuss with you your needs and help you to evaluate how much home you can afford.
Home Inspector
No Home Inspection will catch 100% of items in the home. However, it's well worth it to catch major problems before they become a "surprise" down the road.
Title / Escrow Agent
Title and Escrow Agents are there to make sure you get a clean title and walk you through the closing process. They are a neutral 3rd party to the transaction, and are governed by the language in the contract.

How Much Can You Afford?
This is one of the first questions in deciding to buy a home. The Mortgage Calculator to the left can help, but there is no substitute for talking with a lender.
Nearly 90% of home buyers finance their purchase and lending programs and requirements change daily. Open communication with your Agent and Lender will help as you begin your Home Search.

The Home Search
What Do You Want?
Everyone has different needs and wants, so it is important to formulate a list of the features and benefits you are looking for in a home. Our complete Home Buyers Guide includes a helpful worksheet for evaluating your home buying wants and needs.
Once you find the right home, your agent will help you to write the offer to purchase the home and begin negotiations. This process can differ from state to state, but that is another benefit of using an agent that is both familiar and experienced with the process.

In Escrow
Attention to Details
The Escrow Process is initiated after the acceptance of an offer. While "In Escrow":
Deposit and Contracts are Delivered to the Title/Escrow Company
Title is Examined to ensure you get a "clean" Title
Home Inspections are done during Inspection Period
Financing is Arranged
Home Warranty and Insurance are ordered
Closing is Scheduled and Closing Documents Signed
Title is Recorded
While there are a great many other elements to the Escrow Process, the full process happens in accordance to the terms set forth in the contract. Your agent will be working with you every step of the way.
