Buying a Home
The PorchLight Guide
01
Figure Out Your Finances
Connect with a reputable lender and complete the process to be pre-approved. For a recommendation please reach out.
02
Choose a Real Estate Agent
The right agent will guide you based on your criteria, budget, and preferred location. Please call me to schedule an initial meeting.
03
Find Your Perfect Home
Browse listings supplied by your agent and attend open houses or schedule showings. To sign up for a custom home search click here.
04
Make an Offer
Work with your agent to prepare an offer. They'll write, submit and negotiate on your behalf.
05
Come Under Contract
Once both sides agree and sign a contract, the home will be held in escrow until closing.
06
Do Your Due Diligence
Get an inspection, appraisal, title search, find insurance and more -- your agent can guide you. If an issue comes up at inspection, your agent can negotiate price & terms.
07
Close & Get the Keys
Once the loan is secured and you're cleared to close, paperwork is signed and the keys are yours.
