Buying your home

Why use a REALTOR when BUYING your home?

Most individuals only purchase a limited number of homes in a lifetime, whereas a successful Realtor is involved in this all the time. There are so many potential complications in today’s marketplace, the council of a well educated and experienced Realtor is usually very beneficial.

The following is a partial listing of areas wherein a REALTOR can provide valuable and time saving advice:

1. Identifying your needs regarding the size and features needed in a new home and grounds.

2. Identifying you needs regarding location, taking into consideration such factors as schools, shopping, health care, worship, places of work, recreation, and etc.

3. Suggesting neighborhoods where properties are selling within your price range, helping you focus without wasting your valuable time.

4. Making homes in MLS available for your inspection in accordance with your schedule.

5. Offering advice concerning various matters such as a survey, a home inspection, an appraisal, attorney fees and other closing costs, and helping you negotiate a equitable sharing of these costs between you and the seller.

6. Throughout the process, from the time of your making an offer to purchase the property, until the day when you receive a Deed from the seller, your Realtor should be answering your questions, keeping you informed of the progress and representing you in an ethical and professional manner.
