Our Simple 4 Step Home Buying Process

If you are considering buying a home, congratulations! It's an exciting and important decision that requires careful planning and consideration. Here is our four-step home buying process to guide you through the journey.

Step 1: Determine your budget and get pre-approved for a mortgage Before you start searching for a home, it's important to know how much you can afford. Start by evaluating your income, expenses, and debts to determine your budget. Then, visit a lender or a mortgage broker to get pre-approved for a mortgage. This will give you an idea of how much money you can borrow and what your monthly payments will be. We can help with this as we know some amazing lenders!


Step 2: Find a real estate agent and start your search Once you have your budget and mortgage pre-approval, it's time to start looking for a home. Find a reputable real estate agent who knows the local market and can help you find homes that meet your criteria. You can also search online, attend open houses, or drive around neighborhoods you're interested in to get a sense of what's available.


Step 3: Make an offer and negotiate the terms When you find a home you like, work with your real estate agent to make an offer. Your offer will include the purchase price, any contingencies (such as a home inspection), and the closing date. The seller may accept your offer, counteroffer, or reject it altogether. If your offer is accepted, you'll enter into a contract and start the closing process.


Step 4: Close the deal and get ready to move in after the closing process, get a home appraisal, and finalize your mortgage. You'll also need to pay closing costs, which typically include fees for the appraisal, title search, and other services. Once everything is in order, you'll sign the final paperwork, pay the down payment, and receive the keys to your new home. Congratulations, you're now a homeowner!
