The Buyer’s Road Map
Our Buyer’s Road Map streamlines the process from initial consultation to closing day. We start by understanding your investment goals and securing pre-approval for financing. We then assist in identifying potential properties, making competitive offers, and managing negotiations. Throughout the contract and escrow phases, we handle inspections, appraisals, and final details to ensure a smooth closing.
Are You Ready to Invest?

Identifying Investment Properties
We focus on understanding your investment criteria, including location, price, property size, and potential for rental income or resale value.
Search Tools
Our search tools include:

Making an Offer
When a suitable property is found, we consider seller requirements, earnest money, financing, key dates, and property inclusions. Offers can be accepted, counter-offered, or declined.
When Your Offer is Accepted
After acceptance, we manage earnest money deposits, inspections, repairs, appraisals, insurance, finalizing mortgage details, and conducting a final walkthrough.
Closing Cost Breakdown
Investors should prepare for costs including property appraisal, home inspection, processing and underwriting fees, lender fees, loan discount fees, recording fees, settlement officer fees, title insurance, document preparation fees, and escrow taxes and insurance.
Closing Day
On closing day, one of our agents will accompany you, address any questions, and ensure all documents align with the purchase contract. Bring identification and ensure all purchasers are present or make arrangements in advance. A certified check or wired funds for down payment and closing costs will be needed.
