When you understand current market conditions, you are better able to position yourself as a buyer. It helps to know if you are in a Seller's, Buyer's or Balanced market when getting ready to make your offer and write up a contract. In a Buyer's market there is a lot more competition and Buyers have plenty of choices and room to negotiate.
Here are some of the steps I will take to find your perfect home:
Determine Your Wants and Needs!
This is the single most important step. By asking you a series of questions I will establish what you are looking for. My goal is to not waste your time by looking at properties that are not
in your price range or homes that don't meet your needs. Throughout the buying process I will maintain your confidentiality and represent your best interests.
Help You Get Pre-Qualified
This step will show you how much you can afford. This is accomplished by speaking with your financial institution and establishing what monthly payments you will be comfortable with. Home Shopping
I will use every available method to locate a property that matches your search parameters. This will include properties listed with our office, offered through other real estate companies, as well as unlisted properties. I disclose all known facts about the property that are likely to affect your decision. When we find the home that meets your criteria, I assist you in writing an offer and act as a liaison between you and the seller. I will stay in communication with you during the process and keep you up dated as of the status of the escrow. I watch my transactions very closely and that is why I am confident your home buying process will go smoothly.
Sincerely,
TroyEllen, Realtor
