7 easy(ish) steps to purchasing your dream home

STEP ONE

Put Pen to Paper

It may seem too simple to warrant your time, but put pen to paper and make a list of all your wants and needs when it comes to purchasing a new home. Write down everything that comes to mind, no matter how obvious or frivolous – there’ll be plenty of time to filter later.

STEP TWO

Prioritize

Now that you’ve conceptualized what your dream home looks (and feels) like, organize the list based on priorities. What is essential? What can you bend on? Having this tangible reminder of what aspects of a home you value most will prove invaluable when viewing homes. But with that being said, take care not to become too focused on the list. At the end of the day, your dream house needs to feel like a home – so trust your instincts.

STEP THREE

Prequalify

Whether you’ve already crunched the numbers yourself or not, seek out a mortgage professional to get an official opinion. What you think you can realistically afford and what a lender will offer to loan you may not align. Better to discover this early on in the process, before you fall for something out of reach.

STEP FOUR

Search our listings & other listings that meet your criteria

Check out our comprehensive list of properties to gauge what’s currently on the market. Then, together, we can begin the house hunt.

 

STEP FIVE

Let us do the negotiating

We’re professional negotiators. To us, presenting an offer is an artform, and one we take very seriously. We enter each negotiation with our client’s unique priorities and interests at heart and will use our skill to get you into your dream home for the best possible price.

STEP SIX

Leave the paperwork to us

There’s no shortage of paperwork when it comes to buying a home. Even the smallest slip-up, no matter how honest, could cost you thousands of dollars.

 

STEP SEVEN

Plan your move

Congratulations! You successfully purchased a home. While this is certainly something to celebrate, there’s work to be done to plan for a smooth and stress-free move. Go back to the beginning, pull out the pen and paper, and make another list. Decide what you want the moving process to look like, and then prioritize which aspects are most important to you. Consider factors like the timeline, your budget, and whether you need to purge or purchase furniture.
