Steps in the Process 1 Initial Consultation The purpose of this me eting is to help you understand what to expect from the process while working with me, and to provide you an opportunity to discuss your priorities and questions. I will also explain the Buyer Agency Agreement.
4 Identify Property & Review Disclosures Once you have identified a property that you are ready to make an offer on, I will guide you throughout the process. As a local specialist, I am well versed on all aspects of the purchase contract as well as disclosure obligations.
6 Due Diligence After your offer is accepted, you will have the opportunity to visit the property and conduct consultations with service providers. Additionally, if your offer has contingencies, there will be a time frame to perform the necessary due diligence to remove contingencies. 7 Final Walk- Through A final walk-through ensures that the property's condition hasn't changed since offer acceptance date and the terms of the purchase contract have been met. 8 Closing of Escrow Congratulations! You are now a home owner!

Your offer is a non-binding agreement to pay a certain price for the home. Depending on the offer price and terms, the seller may respond with a “counter offer," which you can choose to accept, reject, or counter. As your agent, I will advise on pricing and strategy throughout the process.
