Buying a Home in Lynchburg
Working with a qualified real estate agent in your area to buy a home is about more than simply viewing properties around town. I prioritize the relationship above the transaction and work closely with my clients to determine their goals in the home buying process.
With distinct skills and expert knowledge of the Lynchburg housing market, I work hard to negotiate and attain favorable contract terms for everyone I work with. I will do whatever it takes to meet your goals and reduce stress throughout the process.
Steps in the Home Buying Process
To reach the closing date on your new house, several important steps of preparation need to occur. Before even talking to an agent, it is valuable to have a sense of your financial situation and begin talking with mortgage lenders (if needed).
Below are helpful steps to follow in the home buying process.
Focus on Your Finances
Assessing your financial situation is the first step in buying a home. Take time to analyze your savings for a downpayment, your credit score, and begin to determine what you can afford and want to spend.
Talk With a Mortgage Lender
Before viewing homes with your real estate agent, it is ideal to ensure you can afford the homes you are looking at. Talking with a mortgage lender and prequalifying for a loan are essential to making a quick and competitive offer on a home.
