About Buying Real Estate 

Seven Steps

Appointment: Please call ahead for an appointment. I may be out showing property or involved with other customers. By calling me first, you can rest assured that I will be available for you! I have staff and voice mails in the office to receive my calls and to take messages. I RETURN ALL CALLS as soon as I can. This allows me to stay completely focused on finding YOU that perfect piece of property or Your next Dream Home. 

Interview: I must know certain facts in order to show you the right property. Your family size, past and present employment status, income range, debt load, present home status, desired price range and location are a few of the things I need to know. The more I know, the better I can assist you in making your dream home come true.

Financing: Rely on me to help you select the best financing packages available to suit the property and your needs. Every week I receive updates from all of the major lending institutions in the area. I am familiar with several different options available to buyers requiring financing from VA to FHA, from stressed credit to excellent credit. 

Home Hunting: I can show you photographs and listing information in the office or via fax or e-mail, then take you through properties for viewing. I'll show you the outside and the inside and answer or get answers to any questions you might have.

Offer: When you find the right property, I will assist you in preparing a purchase offer for presentation to the seller. To validate your offer a deposit is required in most cases. Your deposit is applied to the purchase price upon acceptance of the offer. If your offer is declined, the deposit will be promptly returned.

Accepted: Your offer will be presented to the seller. If negotiations are necessary, I will handle the negotiations from start to finish. Once your offer is fully agreed upon and signed by both parties it becomes a binding contract. From this point on the entire transaction is based on the purchase contract.

Closing: From the time you write the offer until the sale is safely closed, we will work closely lender, attorney, surveyor, appraiser and all other parties involved in the transaction to insure a smooth closing.

So give me a call or send me an e-mail at debradodd@no1qualityrealty.com to assist you and I will guarantee you Honesty, Integrity and Client Confidentiality.
