🏠 Thinking About Buying a Home? Let’s Make It Simple! 🔑✨ Buying a home is a huge investment, and with the right guidance, it doesn’t have to be overwhelming. From loan qualifications to negotiations and inspections, I’ll walk you through every step to protect your interests and get you to the closing table with confidence. Let’s find your dream home together! 🏡💼

Hi there, so you’re thinking of buying a home and you don’t know where to start. Hi, I’m Kimberly Crouch with EXP Realty.

Purchasing a home is most likely going to be one of the largest investments in your life. You need an experienced professional agent to walk you through each phase to ensure your best interests are protected. I’ve been in finance, accounting, and real estate for over 25 years and I’ve assisted many buyers over the years. Here’s how we will help you.

First, we will make sure you are qualified to purchase a home, you’ll know things like what types of loans you can qualify for and what the full payment will be including the payment, interest, taxes, and insurance. Once we know you’re qualified, we’ll go house hunting and make sure you are fully aware of neighborhoods, schools, and anything that could possibly be problematic with the area or home that could affect the value later on.

Then we help you negotiate an offer in a way that is beneficial for you and the seller. Once it’s accepted, we will deliver your due diligence fee to the seller’s agent and we will work with the attorney to coordinate closing and title work, give them your initial deposit, and start scheduling inspections and the appraisal. We are diligent about making sure we don’t miss any contractual deadlines so that we keep your earnest money deposit safe, and you won’t be at risk of losing it.

It’s super important after the inspections to know what is customary to ask for or not to ask from the seller. We will be in constant communication with all of the parties in the transaction, including your lender, to ensure that your best interests are covered and that we can close and close on time.

There are so many more parts to the transaction I could be here for a few hours telling you, so better yet, give me a call and I will become your trusted advisor walking you through step by step and ensuring you make the right decisions all the way until we give you the keys to your new home, and hopefully becoming friends thereafter.

Having proper representation from an experienced professional who is on your team is so important, and it can cost you thousands of dollars if you don’t. Give me a call and let’s see how we can get you into your new home. I’m Kimberly Crouch with EXP Realty, authentic coastal luxury at every price point.
