Buying a Home

Home. It's the most important purchase you'll ever make. As an experienced agent, I understand the difference between buying a house and finding your home. Let me show you how to make the process smooth and trouble-free.

The Home Buying Process

Before You Buy

Preparation is key when purchasing a property. From down payments and mortgage prequalification to understanding the type of home that will meet your needs and satisfy your wants, I can make sure your financial ducks are in a row and your expectations are grounded in reality when preparing to buy.

The Search

Selecting your perfect home will require research, expert guidance and knowledge of the local market, and you'll need to consider what it is you're looking for. I can help you find the place that fits your taste, your budget, and your lifestyle. I'm a home hunter's best friend.

Making the Purchase

So, you've found the perfect home that meets all your criteria, from a great location to just the right square footage. As your trusted agent, I will guide you through the logistical — and emotional — challenges of the purchase process, to ensure you are in a solid position before you sign on the dotted line.

Exclusive Look

This marketing platform allows me to view listings within the Coldwell Banker^® network in three ways: CB Exclusives, Sneak Peeks and Wants & Needs.

CB Exclusives

Enables me to explore listings within our brokerage for a specific period of time, before they even hit the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) or are marketed to anyone outside of my brokerage’s agents and our clients.

Sneak Peeks

Allows me to view the listings with participating Coldwell Banker agents across the country for one business day before the listing is submitted to the MLS and publicly marketed, allowing advanced marketing to a powerful network of agents that are actively seeking new listings.

Wants & Needs

Allows me to promote your wants and needs via a daily or weekly digest within our national network of participating agents across the country, bringing more potential matches to your attention quickly.

The Move Meter^® lets you compare locations based on living affordability, average home prices and other important factors.
