Buyers

Our real estate agents are Top Local Experts. 

 Your home is probably the biggest purchase your family will ever make, and it involves many decisions that go beyond simply choosing one you like. 

As top area real estate agents, here is how we will guide you through the entire process, from viewing homes and financing, to making sure the final contract is in your best interest: 

- You will have full access to ALL homes available in the DFW market, even listings not yet on the MLS, through our professional Texas real estate affiliations. 

- Our expert local knowledge of the DFW area should be invaluable to you, not just in terms of real estate, but also schools, neighborhoods, the local economy, and more. 

- Every local real estate market absolutely has its own trends and opportunities. This can vary greatly, even one neighborhood to the next. It’s our job to steer you into opportunities and out of traps. 

- What is the true market value of the home you are interested in? Is it priced too high? Is it a bargain that you should jump on? We help home buyers make decisions like this every day, and we’ll make sure that YOU get the best value for your money. 

- Negotiating with sellers can be stressful. We will help you negotiate, so that the final contract includes your best possible terms and conditions. 

- You should know absolutely everything about the property you are buying! You and a member or my team or I will view every home that you are interested in, together. And prior to closing we will make you fully aware of any and all inspections available to you. 

- Have confidence when signing documents. Contracts are full of complicated terms and clauses that can greatly affect your future life in your new home. We will give you the full benefit of our real estate knowledge and experience. 

Let us represent your best interests in your search for a new home in the DFW area. While you can see a million homes on the web, actually buying your home is another matter entirely. Buyers beware! 

Ask us any question about buying a home in DFW. It’s our job to help you! There’s no obligation, and we promise to respond quickly

Important Facts For Buyers To Consider

Don’t depend on luck to find your new home – enlist the services of a real estate professional; one who specializes in the sort of property you would like to buy. Choose a REALTOR you feel confident can turn your dreams into reality. Once you have, and we hope you will choose our team, here’s what to expect.

The Voice of Experience

We will not take it for granted that you know all the in’s and out’s of the buying/selling process. Instead, we will provide you with a full explanation of what to expect – and that’s important so you’re not faced with any surprises along the way.

Assessing Your Needs

One of the first questions we will ask is, why are you moving?” We will also explore any time constraints you might have (perhaps imposed by the need to relocate for employment), your financial situation and any future plans.

We will also help you decide where you want to live and what type of house is best for you. There are plenty of housing options available in our marketplace – new homes, resale homes, townhouses, and condominiums. We can help you choose the one that best suits your current and projected lifestyle.
It’s all part of getting to know you so your purchase will be handled to your complete satisfaction.

Targeting Your Dream Home

We’ll help you identify what you want in your new residence. A pool? A Garage? An extra room? A particular building design? What about the neighborhood? Proximity to schools or work?
We’ll compare your needs, wants and budget with what is available on the market – and make recommendations that save you time and effort.

We will also accompany you as you view houses and help you assess their suitability and price. As an expert on a property, a REALTOR can provide facts on the neighborhood, the cost of heating, the condition of the furnace, and so on.

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 our MLS, the details of a wide variety of listed properties that are customized to match your specific search criteria are made available to our clients and automatically sent to you when new listings enter the market. It allows you to be one of the first to see a home of interest and that can save you a tremendous amount of time and effort in your hunt for the right home.

 

Arranging Financing

Our team has a 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, we will assist in evaluating mortgage options and obtaining financing at the most attractive prevailing rates and terms.

A Skillful Negotiator

With over 30 combined years in Real Estate, we are experienced in arranging fair deals. We’ll assist in negotiating an offer, acting as a mediator to head off potential conflicts between you and the seller, and draw up a legally binding contract.

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 enlist the services of a true professional. We understand the market, know exactly what is available and can match your needs and budget to your new home efficiently and effectively.

Planning to Buy you Dream Home?…Give us a call for a FREE Consultation and review of the buying process

It’s important that you choose an experienced agent who is there for you. Your agent should be actively finding you potential homes, keeping you informed of the entire process, negotiating furiously on your behalf, and answering all of your questions with competence and speed. First, find an agent who represents you exclusively and not the seller. This is beneficial during the negotiation process. If you are working with a buyer’s agent, he or she is required not to tell the seller of your top choice. In addition, he or she is also focused on getting you the lowest asking price.

Also, when you use a buyer’s agent, you will see more properties. Not only are they plugged into their Multiple Listing Service, but also they are actively finding homes that are listed as FSBO, or homes that sellers are thinking about listing.

A Buyer’s Agent COSTS YOU NOTHING…The Seller pays our commission or our service is FREE!
