Home Buying Process


Buyers

Every home buyer has their unique needs and concerns. As an expert real estate professional, I aide my buyers in finding and acquiring rare opportunities in real estate properties in a very simple, strategic and successful step. Whether it’s a family home that creates wonderful family memories or an investment property that establishes wealth for my clients. One of the biggest invaluable assets that I offer my buyers are my network from communities and industry professionals. 

Finding A Home In Los Angeles

There are a LOT of homes for sale I find on a daily basis that are available in the current real estate marketplace. Whether that’s at single family home, condominium, townhouse or multifamily unit. It all depends on the homebuyer’s lifestyle and financial situation. I curate a suitable property that fits within my buyer’s budget. Once my buyers identify the right home, we can move forward to the next phase in the process.

Negotiating

When my buyers are ready to make the offer, one of the most important steps come into the equation. I offer my buyers one of the most valuable steps in the process - Negotiating. This is not just about throwing an offer price. There is more to it other than price, which can make it compelling for the seller to accept the offer. A compelling offer may be attractive by its terms, such as solid contingencies, credits towards closing costs, or even "seller-paid" points! Whatever the situation calls for, I’m always there to advocate for my buyers success.

Closing The Sale

Once the offer is accepted, we’re still not ready to celebrate. There are many other factors in this stage that can effect the close of sale. To make this process seamless for my buyers, I coordinate and facilitate with all those that play an important roll:

  • Brokers/Agents
  • Inspectors
  • Contractors
  • Appraisers
  • Lenders/Mortgage Bankers
  • Escrow companies
  • Title companies
  • Homeowner’s Association
  • Property Management Companies
  • Home Warranty Companies

 

See why many of my buyers are satisfied with the level of my service and how referrals become a valuable asset to my success. Contact Me today to find out how I can be of assistance to you!
