Before You Start Looking For Your New Home:
-
Choose a REALTOR® that you trust and who understands your needs. If you would like us to run a home search and email listings to you so that you can get a feel for the market, we will really listen to you, take into account your needs and desires and then run the search.
-
Talk to a Mortgage Lender to get pre-qualified or better yet, pre-approved. We can refer you to lenders we work with and trust. They will help you determine a comfortable price for your new home purchase.
-
Determine a comfortable monthly budget for your new purchase. Your monthly payment will include taxes and Homeowners Insurance. Also consider you may be paying Homeowners Association Dues.

Once you feel comfortable with the loan process and have determined the price you can afford, we will look at homes. It is very important that you allow me to show you all the homes that you are interested in. Remember, the Listing Agents represent the Seller.
