The House Hunting Process
THE HOUSE HUNTING PROCESS
You are about to take on the task of finding the right home for you and your family. It is an important job that could become laborious and chaotic or, with a little planning, be organized and enjoyable.
Some Helpful Hints:
Don’t “squeeze in” house hunting. Leave enough time to properly inspect the homes
that we have scheduled.
* If a home is out of the question, don’t linger. Move on to the next one that may deserve more of your attention.
* If convenient, bring the children. You may want to bring them if you are taking a second look at a home. Remember, it could become their home too!
* Please, after seeing a home, share with your agent all of your impressions. They will be providing you with a printout of each home you see so that you can make notes if you like. Tell them if it’s too big or too small, good or poor floor plan, good or poor location, feels right, etc.
The more you share your impressions with them, the better they will be able to spot the right home for you and save you valuable time.
* Whenever you see a home advertised by another company that sounds interesting, please give your agent a call. They can tell you about it and show it to you if you like. The agents go out at least twice a week to preview all new listings and chances are they have already been in the home you are calling about.
* As you see homes, try to eliminate and keep only two or three as serious possibilities. The more homes you try to keep track of, the more difficult it becomes to make a final decision.
* Whenever you see an open house advertised that you might like to see, please mention to the agent at the home that you are working with an agent at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Town and Country Real Estate.
* Give some thought to hiring an attorney to represent you. If you are selecting one, please be sure to obtain one whose practice is mostly real estate. If you need one, your agent can suggest some names to you. You will need your attorney when the time comes for signing the paperwork.
* Finally, please call your agent for whatever questions you may have or whatever information you may need. They are available at your convenience.
