Beginning your home search can be an overwhelming and daunting task. Because of that, our team makes sure that you, and all other potential buyers, understand each of the 7 steps that we take to make the process as easy and exciting as possible.
During our initial call or meeting, we'll get to know you and your goals and determine if we want to work together. We'll also take this time to explain how we plan to represent and guide you at every step of the process.
Just like no home is alike, no homebuyer is alike. We’ll discuss your goals and expectations so we can get a clear understanding of exactly what you are looking for. Our team will get to know you — Need to move for a job? Want a shorter commute? Getting married? Having a baby? Need to upgrade or downsize? Is rent too much? Is this your first home? We'll also uncover your likes, dislikes, and must-haves so we can begin narrowing down the homes on the market that fit your criteria.
We’ll introduce you to our mortgage partner, who can help you determine your buying price range with confidence. Be prepared to dig into paperwork during this part of the process such as pay stubs, W2’s, and tax returns. The lender will do a full review and then tell you what you will be able to borrow in order to purchase a home. This is a vital step in the home buying process as it's important to have clear expectations from the start on what you can afford.
At this stage in the process, after we know exactly what you are looking for, we’ll send you notifications about the listings that you’re most likely to be excited about.
Here’s where the buying process gets really fun! We’ll go to local open houses together and schedule viewings of the homes that you’ve loved from our listing alerts. We’ll talk about how the budget will work and make sure that we find you the perfect home.
When you’re ready to make an offer, your agent will present a written offer to the seller. While everyone loves getting their offer accepted right away, the seller could come back to us with a counter offer, or reject your initial offer all together. We’ll walk you through each of these possibilities and exactly how to handle them. Once your offer is accepted, it’s time to get your financing in order and move forward to the next step!
The sellers accepted your offer, and the home is going through appraisal and inspection. The appraisal guarantees that the price of the property matches the condition of the property while the inspection makes sure that everything in the home is functioning properly and there are no major issues inside. These are the last steps before the keys to your home are handed over to you.
Get excited because it’s time to close on your home! This process includes going through all of the final paperwork and signing your name (a lot!). Don't forget to bring all of the paperwork you’ve collected along the way and your down payment. You'll receive the keys and that's it, you're officially a new homeowner!
Jose and Nick were amazing. Seriously recommend these guys. Very responsive. They returned all texts and calls immediately. Jose was so proactive in getting things done. He was constantly providing updates and what needed to be done and finding ways to move the process along. Scheduling inspections, signings, and managing the negotiations were a few of the things I didn’t even have to think about because of Jose. He had excellent negotiation skills. I truly believe he got me the best deal possible. I have complete confidence and in Jose and Nick and would use them again.

She took care of everything from inspections to stagers and did an absolutely great job is making sure we received the best deal. We were able to close on selling our home within 3 weeks and at the same time she has helped us with our new construction home. She is the best realtor we have had the pleasure to work with. She will make sure to put your needs first.
Britney is truly an amazing realtor! She helped my husband and I buy a home and sell one. Both experiences were great! She is caring, and attentive, and will go the extra mile for you!

She clearly communicated with us and always kept us informed about each step of the process. You want Britney as your realtor
