The home buying process

It is important to engage and connect with a Realtor who provides quality results, listens to your wants and needs, is knowledgeable about the area, and knows how to develop a comprehensive plan to find exactly what you are looking for. Sarah helps you throughout the process, from educating her clients on the market to the home search journey, all the way through after your sale.

The Offer Process

Once you find the the home that is right for you, Sarah will assist in preparing an offer for the home. The steps of this process involve some of the following activities:

1. Prepare sales comparables of home to help determine the true market value. In determining value for the home Sarah will take into account the location, recent sales, any deferred maintenance, and any improvements a market buyer would make in order to make the home livable.

2. Obtain any pre-offer disclosures for the home and review these documents with you to help you understand all of the details. If anything in these documents causes you to need additional information, we will work with you to answer all your questions. Sarah's goal is to ensure you are fully informed about the condition of the property prior to making any offer.

3. Based on the condition of the home, the disclosures provided, and your financial capabilities, Sarah will discuss an offer strategy for the property. Once the strategy is in place, she will work with you to get all of the appropriate documents signed.

4. Sarah strives to present your offer in person to Seller or the Listing Agent. She is not always afforded this opportunity, but she believe it is in your best interest to do so.

5. If the seller accepts the offer you submit, you will be in contract and the escrow process will begin. Often times there will be some counter offer or further negotiation before a contract is accepted. Sarah will counsel you through this process, and make sure you don't exceed your prescribed price limits for the home.

6. Once in contract, SArah will coordinate all inspections, reports, or access needed for the property to complete your loan process. Depending on the structure of your purchase offer, the escrow period may be short or long. She will work to accomplish whatever you desire during this period.

7. If any additional inspections are needed for the property, Sarah will work to get those on the schedule ahead of any contingency removal or close dates. Sarah's strong referral network allows her to have professionals visit the home on short notice.

8. If there are any negotiations needed with the seller Sarah will represent you on these and will work to get the best possible settlement in your favor. Once all contingencies are removed, she will makes sure the remainder of the escrow process moves smoothly.

9. Within 5 days of the close of escrow, and after any loan documents are delivered to escrow Sarah will schedule a sign off with the escrow company and always try to be in attendance to ensure all of the terms and conditions are in agreement with the purchase contract.

10. On the date of the close of escrow Sarah will get confirmation of the recording at the County. Once this occurs she will coordinate to deliver keys to the property and also provide any necessary utility information to transfer services.

The close of escrow is not the end of our service. Sarah is available for you to discuss any details regarding your home, and also provide vendor recommendations to make your homeownership experience an enjoyable one.
