BUYER'S CHECKLIST

Your Essential Home Buyer's Checklist

7 Simplified Steps to Your Dream Home

Your journey to finding the perfect home is about to begin. This simplified Buyer's Checklist has been designed to guide you through the process, ensuring a smooth experience with expert guidance at every turn.

As a licensed agent, I'm here to make your journey enjoyable and stress-free.

1. Define Your Needs and Budget

Start by identifying your must-haves and nice-to-haves in a home. How many bedrooms and bathrooms do you need? What location suits your lifestyle? Also, determine a realistic budget. Use a mortgage calculator to estimate your budget based on income, savings, and potential down payment.

2. Get a Mortgage Pre-Approval

Get pre-approved for a mortgage to understand your buying power and narrow your search. It strengthens your position when making an offer and gives you a clear budget to work with.

4. Dig Deeper with Due Diligence

Found a potential home? Let's dig deeper. I'll help you obtain property reports and assess its condition. Together, we'll ensure you're making an informed decision.

5. Craft and Submit Your Offer

Once you’ve found the home that feels right, it’s time to make your move—literally. I will help you determine a fair yet competitive offer price based on market conditions and comparable sales. Together, we'll outline the terms, contingencies, and timeline that protect your interests while appealing to the seller. With everything in place, we will be ready to present the offer and negotiate with the seller.

6. Navigate Inspections and Closing

After your offer is accepted, the finish line is in sight—but there are still key steps ahead. I will help you schedule a professional home inspection to uncover any hidden issues and negotiate repairs or credits if needed. From there, we will work together with your lender to coordinate final details—appraisals, title work, and signing paperwork so your closing goes smoothly. Get ready to pick up the keys to your new home!

7. Experience Post-Sale Support

My service doesn’t stop at the closing table—it’s just the beginning of your new chapter. Whether you need trusted movers, home improvement pros, or insider tips on the best local spots, I’m here to help you feel at home faster. I’ll also stay in touch to keep you informed about market trends, property value updates, and opportunities to build future equity.
