Embarking on the journey of buying a home can be both thrilling and daunting. Understanding the process is key to a successful real estate transaction. In this guide, we'll break down the steps you can expect during your home purchase. Keep in mind that every situation is unique, so it's always a good idea to consult with your real estate professional for personalized advice.


Common Steps for Buying a Home


Getting Started: Your Initial Meeting


The first step is crucial – choosing a real estate agent. This person will be your guide, helping you determine your needs and wants, as well as assessing your financial eligibility.


Sorting Out Your Finances: Loan Qualification


Understanding your financial situation is vital. Discuss your finances with your agent, obtain pre-qualification, and find a loan that suits your needs.


The Hunt for Your Home: Finding the Right Property


Selecting an affordable property that aligns with your needs is a collaborative effort between you and your agent. Discuss the offer, review the contract, and let your agent present the offer to the selling side.


Making Your Offer: Presenting and Negotiating


Prepare an "earnest money" deposit (usually 1 to 3% of the purchase price) and be ready to negotiate. The seller can accept, counter, or reject your offer.


Starting the Paperwork: Opening Escrow


Depositing your "earnest money" into escrow marks the beginning of the official paperwork. Escrow will order a Preliminary Report, initiating the necessary steps.


Ensuring Everything's in Order: Contingency Period


This phase involves a physical inspection of the property by a qualified inspector. Approve the seller's Transfer Disclosure Statement, the Preliminary Report, and conduct a property appraisal. Obtain loan approval, perform termite inspections, and secure homeowner's insurance.


Fulfilling Financial Obligations: Down Payment


Before closing, prepare your down payment. This often requires a cashier's check or money transfer before the closing date.


Wrapping It Up: Closing the Escrow


Deposit your down payment and closing costs into escrow. The lender sends the balance to Skyway Title Services, and the deed is officially recorded with the County Recorder's office, finalizing the transaction.
