Buying a home?\"Real<\/h1>\n

I don’t want the home buying process to be stressful or confusing and by knowing the steps ahead of time you can enter into home ownership prepared, relaxed and ready to start building your equity.<\/p>\n

How long does it take to buy a house?
<\/strong>On average, the home buying process can take anywhere from 20 days to 45 days depending on your finances, the banks involved and the closing process. It comes down to what the contract says, how long each party needs and if there is financing involved. Cash offers can be closed in as little as a week or two. While all factors come into play, it really starts with you. Getting a loan and finding a home.<\/p>\n

Where do I start?<\/strong>
Unless you have the cash to purchase a home outright, you will want to obtain financing. You will need to find out how much home you can afford by basing your housing budget on your income. A lender can do this for you and also provide you with a pre-approval letter confirming you are indeed ready to buy a house.
<\/strong><\/p>\n

How do I know where to start looking?<\/strong>
If you’re wondering where to live in Michigan<\/a>, I’m just the one to help you make an informed decision. By discussing your options, living situation, commute times and any specific details, I can help put together a list of qualified properties that meet your needs. I specialize in West Bloomfield, Farmington Hills,\u00a0Bloomfield Township<\/a> and the surrounding communities, so finding the right home is only a click away.<\/p>\n

Finding a Home That Meets Your Needs and Wants<\/strong>
Before you start looking at properties, make a list of “must-have” features<\/a><\/span> along with optional features you’d like to have. “Must-have” features may include the number of bedrooms and bathrooms you’ll need to accommodate your family, location (consider commute to work, which schools your children will attend, etc.), lot size and special needs (handicapped access, etc.). Optional features may include the architectural styling, landscaping, etc. Having a clear idea of what you want in a home will help your REALTOR\u00ae find the perfect property for you.<\/p>\n

Know the Process – Get the Home<\/h2>\n

\"homeI want you to have the home of your dreams in a price range you are comfortable with. Call me today to start looking at homes in the area. I help sellers <\/a>market and list their homes and may have a property that fits your needs. Get a loan, find a home, close on the deal; I want to help make your home buying dreams a reality.<\/p>\n

Educating yourself about the home-buying process is key to getting a home you love and can afford. As your REALTOR\u00ae, I\u00a0am here to answer any questions<\/a><\/span> you might have and guide you through this process.<\/p>\n

Wants Vs. Needs<\/h2>\n

There is a lot to consider when buying your new or next home.\u00a0 You want to make sure that you get the BEST house for YOU.<\/p>\n

What’s the best way to choose the right home?<\/h2>\n

I love the southern Oakland County area and can help you find the right home in West Bloomfield, Farmington Hills, Bloomfield Township, Novi, Commerce, Troy and surrounding areas, but only you know exactly what you’re looking for in a home.<\/p>\n

In your journal, include a list of “needs vs. wants” in a new home. This doesn’t mean you can’t have what you want in your home, but rather that you have a priority list of the most important features.\u00a0 You may not be able to obtain all the “want” items on your list, within your budget. You may have to compromise on a few items to stay in line with your budget.\u00a0 Here is\u00a0a review of “needs vs. wants:”<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
