LiveMARYLAND Buyer Tip: The Importance of A Buyer Consultation

Have you been thinking about buying a home but don’t know where to begin? A buyer consultation may seem like an unremarkable part of the buying process, but it’s a critical first step to success in finding the right home. 

Whether you are buying your first home or your fifth, there are a few key topics we like to review in every buyer consultation to ensure a smooth and enjoyable home buying experience:

• Review the home buying process and answer any questions. From the initial search to closing, we will take the time to review each step in the process and answer any questions.

• Review local market conditions, including how to be successful in today’s market when shopping for a home and making offers (the market is constantly changing!)

• Discuss specific financing options, preferred lenders, and steps to getting pre-approved. We can also run the numbers to help you settle on a price range you are comfortable with.

• Perform a detailed Needs Analysis. Together we’ll review your "wants" and "needs", as well as preferred location and neighborhoods. Whether you have a specific location in mind, or just an idea of what you’re looking for in a community, we’ll help you identify areas that match your needs.

• Review best practices for working together, and identify your motivation - what’s most important to you. When you’re preparing to purchase one of the largest assets of your life, you should feel comfortable and confident that we know what matters most to you, so we can help you get it.

Whether you are just starting to think about buying, or are ready to actively search for a home, shoot us a message — we’d love to walk you through the LiveMaryland Home Buying process to ensure your real estate experience is an exceptional one.
