Getting to Know you...
From your doctor to your lawyer to your mechanic, you expect diagnosis
and analysis before any prescriptions are made.
We know you wouldn't walk in to your doctor's office and demand
an operation in the morning. In fact, if your doctor agreed on
the spot you would walk out muttering something about "quack" and "malpractice."
It is the same when setting out to buy a home. (Although you might
be surprised how many people say, "I want to
go see that house in Sleepy Hollow, right NOW!")
Without some preprocessing, it would be a disservice to everyone
involved to jump up and run out to Sleepy Hollow.
We start the process with an interview. In order for me
to understand what it is you want, we need to know a lot more about
you…your life style, your family, your work/commute, your
finances…all the special needs that make you unique.
It takes an hour or so. We typically do it in the office. We ask
you to help us understand this and that…explain…describe…until
we have a very clear understanding of not just the perfect home,
but what makes different features important to you, what your priorities
are and what trade-offs are most likely.
We will cover your financial options and we will recommend a
loan officer if necessary. The loan officer will guide you through
qualifying for a loan.
At the end of this meeting we will have a clear picture of where
to begin the search.
If you are like most people, you need to get up to speed on just
what and where your home buying dollars will purchase. You need
an education on values.
We will schedule an education
tour which is the next step.
