1. Get Pre Approved and know your numbers! You want to have a clear understanding of your expected monthly payment, down payment, and closing costs. That way there are no surprises once you find your dream home.

2. Start your home search with your Realtor. Once you have your pre approval letter, you and your Realtor will work together to help you find a home that fits your needs by doing an online search and taking in person home tours.

3. Make an offer on your dream home! Once you find your home, your Realtor will advise on the best way to secure you the best deal for your next home. We will discuss offer strategy, pricing, contingencies, and more.

4. Inspect your future home! It is important you take the proper due diligence for your future home and investment. Inspections can range from Home Inspections, termite inspections, radon inspections, and more.

5. Contact a Title Company to ensure a clean and marketable Title. Your Realtor will connect you with a trusted and professional Title Company.

6. Get Homeowners Insurance on your new home! Your Realtor can recommend trusted insurance agents to insure your home.

7. Perform a Final Walk through to ensure the home is in substantially the same condition as when you made an offer or during the home inspection. If you negotiated any repairs, you would check that they have been completed.

8. Closing Day is Here! At settlement you will sign all the paperwork required for you to officially become the owner of your new home! You are ready to move in once all your paperwork has been completed.
