I meet with you to discuss
your needs, my role as a Realtor, agency relationship,
as well as closing costs (deposit, conditions, financing,
etc.) |
| 2. |
|
You should have pre-approval
for a mortgage. This shows what you can afford, your
budget, and gives you leverage when finding the home
of your dreams. |
| 3. |
|
Property search begins,
suitable homes selected for viewing. |
| 4. |
|
Hopefully, I show you
a home which meets your approval. I would find as
much information as possible about the property for
you to consider and review. |
| 5. |
|
I help you write an offer
for the property, you sign the documents. I meet
with the listing agent to discuss terms of the offer.
The offer is presented to the seller(s) by the listing
agent. The offer is accepted, rejected, or counter-offered. |
| 6. |
|
I would discuss the results
with you, additional negotiations may follow. When
both parties reach agreement, an arranged ‘sale’ exists,
and then you give me your deposit for the property. |
| 7. |
|
I submit copies of the
documents to our Re/Max brokerage, your lawyer, and
begin arrangements for any services . Any issues
are addressed. |
| 8. |
|
I prepare a schedule
of events coordinating conditions such as inspection,
water test, financing, appraisal, etc. I will make
sure all of the conditions are being completed on
time for your benefit. |
| 9. |
|
When all conditions in
your offer are satisfied (usually a two week period
to complete) the sale is firm. You can start organizing
for your move. |
| 10. |
|
Closing date- I will
be checking to make sure everything is ready near
closing date in coordination with the listing agent
and lawyers. A pre-closing inspection usually takes
place a few days before closing in which you and
I will walk through the property to make sure everything
is as it should be when you last viewed the property
and made your offer. |
| 11. |
|
At this point, the funds
have been transferred to the seller, you have received
your deed and keys. The sale is closed and you can
enjoy your new home. |
