Consultation
When purchasing a home, whether it’s your 1st time or your 40th time, you deserve to have a trustworthy real estate team by your side guiding you through the process. During our initial meeting, we will discuss your home purchase goals and set the expectations of the experience given the current market conditions. We will also give a brief overview of what to expect during the steps of purchasing a home and how we can navigate it together smoothly and efficiently.
Pre-Approval
During the consultation, we will discuss your finances and we will recommend local lenders who will offer you the best loan products given your unique financial situation. We work with a variety of lenders and we will connect you with ones who align with Kingdom 1st’s values and culture to ensure a similar experience for you with your trusted real estate agent and lender. A pre-approval is an essential step in the home search process; it is needed to make an offer on a home and help you know what monthly payment to expect and budget accordingly.
Home Tours
Once you have been pre-approved, and have decided to work with us, we will begin touring homes together. This will involve a curated online home search with touring up to 5 homes in one day. During the home tours, we will discuss what you like/don’t like about the homes we tour so that we can narrow down what is really important to you and help you find the best home that meets your needs. Your time and our time is valuable and it is our goal to tour homes that are truly meeting and exceeding your needs.
Making an Offer
When you have found “the one” we will promptly perform a comparative market analysis (CMA) on the property to ensure that the offer we make is competitive but also so that you don’t overpay. We will communicate with the listing agent to ensure that our offer has the best chance of being accepted. Our goal is to create a win-win situation for both you and the sellers, and this principle will guide us from making the initial offer through the inspection phase, where another round of negotiations will take place.
Closing Table
After inspections have been completed and you and the seller have agreed to terms, we will guide you through the remainder of the purchase process to get you the keys to your next home. We will ensure that you have completed all of the necessary paperwork from the lender and title company so that we can close smoothly. When working with Kingdom 1st Realty, you will also receive a FREE move-in deep clean that will help you start off “fresh” in your new home.
