NEIGHBORHOOD GUIDES

Where Will You Live?

1. Get Pre-Approval

Getting your lender’s pre-approval letter is the first step toward buying your home. We can connect you to dependable mortgage lenders who will offer competitive interest rates, desirable financing packages, and options.

2. Find A Realtor You Trust

Interview licensed real estate professionals and sign with one. If selected, we will work as your advocate and trusted advisor from the start of our search all the way through closing – and beyond, as needed.

3. Search and Visit Properties

We will look at a range of areas and property types, per your real estate goals. Now is the time to determine your must-haves, nice-to-haves, and negotiables. During showings and open houses we will point out pros and cons of all properties, so that you can make informed decisions.

4. Make An Offer

Once you have seen a home you like, we submit an offer, which outlines the price, terms, and conditions of the purchase. We will provide advice on pricing and offer strategy, leading you through the process.

5. Home Inspection

The inspector will show you how the home works, what is not working and how to maintain the systems. He or she will also provide a comprehensive report for future reference.

6. Deliver Earnest Money Deposit

In Colorado, your earnest money deposit is usually between 1-3%, determined by the seller. Once you are under contract, you will send the EMD to the title company. These funds are cashed, held in escrow, and applied to your down payment at closing.

10. Final Walk-Through With Your Agent

We walk through the property just before closing to confirm that it is in the physical condition negotiated through the Sales Contract and possibly the Inspection Resolution.

11. Closing

Congratulations, you are now a homeowner!

 

12. Celebrate

Woo Hoo!
