There are a couple of ways we can go about this depending on your financial position and the market at the time.
Once you've found a home and we have successfully negotiated an offer, it usually takes approximately 45-60 days start to finish. Sometimes a transaction can happen more quickly depending on the terms.
We have the resources to help you not only price and market the property appropriately, but we also have a network of vendors to help you with staging, lawn care, clean-outs, repairs, and other items that may help with readying your home for sale.
A Realtor has expertise in navigating the current market and can advise you on the best ways to make a competitive offer on a home. We will also ensure that you are prepared as to what to expect over the entire process.
1. Where do I start when I want to purchase a home?
Get pre-approved with a local lender.
2. Should I do inspections?
Unless you are a contractor or have expertise in the anatomy of a home and/or radon, wood destroying insects, septic or wells, it is advisable to have an inspection. We can advise further based on the house itself and your expertise.
3. What if there is mold in the house?
There are different types of mold and ways to remediate and we can refer you to a reputable vendor to help you.
4. What is title insurance?
This is insurance to protect you from any past owner having any stake, claim, or liens on the property. This ensures that you own the property FREE and CLEAR.
5. Should I look at a foreclosure?
This depends on your financial situation and expertise. Foreclosures are typically sold AS-IS and not always eligible for financing.
