Aaronah is fantastic to work with. She is RESPONSIBLE, responsive, and knows how to find ways to achieve a win win situation. She is masterful at finding ways to help in my negotiation, and at the same time, giving me truth of the situation so I know what levers are feasible and what are not. Aaronah also goes over and beyond what realtors do. Always going the extra mile to check with the various stakeholders and make sure things goes right and smoothly.

You will need proof of funds if you are a cash buyer. If you are financing you will need an approval letter.
This is the fun part: exploring homes you are interested in. You may even decide to build your own.
With knowledge of current market trends we will craft a compelling offer, and or negotiate for agreement.
You're encouraged to meet the inspector. This is your chance to get a full understanding of the condition of the home.

Sometimes we are so enamoured by new flooring and fresh paint that we overlook a missing gutter. Or there are issues not in plain sight. Then we get shocked by a 38 page inspection report that makes it sound like this perfect house is falling apart at the seams.
Not even new construction homes are perfect. Some of these homes might be older than you. Homes were probably up to code during the year the house was built. Codes are always changing and updating. This doesn’t mean there’s not an issue with older homes, it doesn’t mean there is an issue either.
Inspection reports will identify items of high concern ie: structural, mechanical, electrical problemsl, pests, mold and water damage. The report may also include items of least concern ie: cosmetic issues, minor repair (door knob replacement), and deferred maintenance “may need (care) at a later date.”
Inspection reports are meant to show what is needed to bring a home into perfect condition. This report will give you more confidence to decide what conditions you are comfortable accepting, or if changes need to be made to the contract.
It is my business practice not attend the inspection myself. As a realtor is it not my area of expertise. I encourage you to attend the inspection if you want to. The inspection is a great opportunity to have unfiltered conversations about the condition of the home with a home inspector. Let me know if you want me to show up at the end of the inspection to review any major issues.
Tip: schedule your inspection as soon as you are in contract. Inspectors schedules can fill up quickly.
If you’re buying a home with help from your state or local government, you may be offered a mortgage credit certificate (MCC). If you are, take advantage of the offer.
A mortgage credit certificate could give you a worthwhile tax break. And, unlike other mortgage tax cuts, you can take advantage of an MCC even if you’re taking the standard deduction rather than itemizing your taxes. That could mean direct savings on your federal tax bill.
Be sure to ask your lender about the Mortgage Credit Certificate.
