Services
01
Pre Approval
This step will help you better understand your loan options. Having a pre approval when you start your search makes your offer more attractive to sellers and real estate agents. In this step, I can connect you with reputable lenders in your area today.
03
Offer/Negotiations
Yay! You found the house for you! Now it's time to submit your offer. You and your realtor will discuss the details of an offer based on what is in your best interest. During this time you will include *earnest money with your offer.
05
Appraisal
An appraisal is usually required when a borrower uses a mortgage loan to buy a house. Cash buyers don't necessarily need one. The primary objective is to determine the current market value of your home. If a homes comes in with an appraisal lower than your purchase price, you and the sellers can take this time to re-negotiate a purchase price. You, as the buyer, also have the option to deposit the difference in the low appraisal to make up the difference.
