Agents have a long list of things they do from the start of a real estate transaction to closing of escrow. We save you time and money, making sure that everything is legal and all of the i’s are dotted and t’s are crossed. Here are just 10 of the things that we do for buyers:

  1. Help you get a mortgage. We will assist you in finding the right lender to work with and will counsel you on working with them effectively.

  2. Narrow down your search for the right location and property. We work with all of your needs and wants and will focus on properties that meet your criteria and price range.

  3. Draft up a solid offer. We will ensure that your offer is a sound one that protects you and impresses the seller.

  4. Negotiate a good price. We are experienced and know the value of what we are helping clients buy. We negotiate on your behalf to make sure you never pay more than you have to for the perfect home.

  5. Attend the inspection. Every buyer agent should be present at the home inspection and ask the right questions about the condition of the home.

  6. Negotiate home inspection repair requests. Negotiations don’t stop at the initial offer. If there are any issues discovered during inspection, we help you work with the seller to either make the repairs or cover the cost.

  7. Recommend professionals. As agents and homeowners in the neighborhood, we know the best inspectors, contractors, lenders, painters, etc. who love doing their jobs and do incredible work.

  8. Communicate with the seller’s agent. You and the seller will be on the same page throughout the closing process because we like to make this process smooth and easy for both buyer and seller.

  9. Monitor your mortgage commitment. We keep tabs on the status of your mortgage and guide you on the dos and don’ts before your loan is finalized.

  10. Help you navigate the escrow and closing process. There is a lot that happens during escrow and before you close. We help walk you through the process and help you understand everything you need or want to know.

This is a quick list and overview of what we do for buyers. We love our team that help us dive deep into any and all of these items. All are experts in their area and great at what they do. When you buy with us, we know you will be pleased with our service and support.
