Home Buyers Tips | Find Your Dream Home | Finding Motivated Sellers | Mortgage Pre-Approval | Credit Purchases

Dear Home Buyer,

Buying a home can be grueling process without an experienced Realtor®. My job is to take the burden off of you so that it can be the exciting moment in your life that it's supposed to be.

It should be fun to shop for a new home. I'm here to do the hard work for you so you can focus on getting the home of your dreams.

I'll save you time

Don't spin your wheels wasting your valuable time on a fruitless real estate search. When you tell me what you want, I'll scour the market for properties that fit your criteria. No more endless hours driving around areas you don't know, finding homes you aren't interested in.

Believe it or not, not all sellers are motivated to sell their property. There are a number of reasons for a seller's reluctance to part with their home. Some sellers have unrealistic price expectation, and no pressing desire to close a deal. In these cases, it is often best to avoid these kinds of sellers, because just as a seller needs to trust that you will carry out your agreement to close in good faith, you have to have the same confidence in the seller.

Did you know that there's a significant difference between pre-approval and pre-qualification when it comes time to go home shopping? Sometimes understanding this distinction can make the difference between getting the home you want at the price you want it for. One gives the seller a great deal more confidence in your ability to close escrow, which is the purpose of both types of documents.

Many buyers don't realize how important it is not to make major credit purchases right before buying a home. Any monthly payments you are making for those credit obligations will decrease the size of loan you qualify for by a ratio of about 100:1. That's a big chunk of home buying power you're throwing out the window!
