Your Step-by-Step Guide to Buying a Home
From pre-approval to the keys in your hand, here's exactly what the process looks like — and what to expect at each step along the way.
How the Process Works
Seven steps from your first search to closing day. I'm with you at every one of them.
Get Pre-Approved
Before we start touring homes, I connect you with a trusted lender to see what you qualify for. A pre-approval letter shows sellers you're a serious, ready buyer.
Search for Your Home
We tour homes that match your budget, must-haves, and target neighborhoods — in person or virtually — until we find the right fit.
Make an Offer — Accepted!
I help you structure a competitive offer and negotiate terms with the seller until it's accepted.
Home Inspection
A licensed inspector checks the property top to bottom. If issues turn up, we can negotiate repairs or credits before moving forward.
Appraisal
Your lender orders an independent appraisal to confirm the home is worth what you've agreed to pay.
Clear to Close
Your lender finishes underwriting the loan and issues final approval — you're officially clear to close.
Close on the Property
Sign the final paperwork, get your keys, and the home is officially yours.
