Ready to buy a home?
The home buying process can vary based on location and personal circumstances but there are a few steps that everyone must take to buy a new home -whether you are a first-time or seasoned buyer.
​STEP ONE: Financial Readiness and Pre-Approval
-
Before you start house hunting, assess your financial situation, including your credit score, savings, and monthly budget.
-
Get pre-approved for a mortgage to determine your budget range and show sellers you're a serious buyer.
​STEP TWO: Define Your Home Preferences
-
Make a list of your priorities, such as location, size, number of bedrooms, amenities, and any specific features you want. This will help narrow down your search and save time.
​STEP THREE: House Hunting and Research
-
Start searching for homes online, through real estate listings, and by working with a real estate agent.
-
Attend open houses, schedule private showings, and research neighborhoods to find the best match for your preferences.​
​STEP FOUR: Making an Offer and Negotiating
-
Once you find a home you like, work with your real estate agent to make an informed offer based on market research and your budget.
-
Negotiate with the seller to reach an agreement on the price, contingencies, and other terms.
​STEP FIVE: Inspection, Appraisal, and Closing
-
After your offer is accepted, schedule a home inspection to identify any potential issues.
-
If needed, negotiate repairs with the seller.
-
The lender will conduct an appraisal to ensure the home's value aligns with the loan amount.
-
Finally, complete the closing process, which involves signing legal documents and transferring ownership.
