BUYING A HOME Don't depend on blind luck to find your new home - enlist the services of a real estate representative.
Choose a REALTOR™ you feel comfortable with.
A REALTOR® who is going to work for you and who is not representing the seller.
Your REALTOR® needs to know Why are you moving?" your financial situation and your future plans.
There are plenty of housing options available in the marketplace - new homes, resale homes, townhouses, condominiums. Your REALTOR® can help you choose the one that best suits your current and projected lifestyle.
A REALTOR® will compare your needs, wants and budget with what is available on the market - and make recommendations that save you time and effort.
Access to MLS®
Multiple Listing Service or MLS® is an exclusive service accessible only through a REALTOR™ - and it can be a valuable tool. Through MLS®, the details of a wide variety of listed properties are made available to the REALTOR® you work with. That can save you a tremendous amount of time and effort in your hunt for the right home.
Arranging Financing
REALTORS® have broad and current knowledge of the financing choices available to home buyers - and there are many of them, an often confusing array. At your request, a REALTOR® will assist in evaluating mortgage options and obtaining financing at the most attractive prevailing rates and terms.
Who Pays?
Usually, the REALTOR® will be paid from the proceeds of the sale. The listing agreement states the REALTOR®'s fee.
Buying a home can be an exasperating and time-consuming experience. But not if you are working with a REALTOR®. REALTORS® have access and know exactly what is available in the market and can match your needs and budget to your new home efficiently and effectively.
