Buying Services

Goals and Objectives

You have many choices when it comes to buying your home, and an initial meeting will allow us to determine if we are a good fit for one another.

In addition, we will discuss your needs and options, including:

  • Your ideal home

  • Your requirements (size, features, location)

  • Your time frame for purchase

  • Your financial considerations and expectations

  • Your current residence (do you need to sell it, or give notice?)

  • Other services, including custom new home design and construction

Buyer Agency

Once you decide to work with the Evergreen Realty Team, we are your coaches through the home buying process. We work as a team, utilizing the vast array of learning all agents have experienced during their real estate career.

If you have any questions, we will answer them promptly, or find a trusted resource that can. This may be your first transaction, or you may be a seasoned homeowner. But as in life, things change, and we stay current with transformations in the real estate marketplace and the financing landscape.

If you want our seasoned opinion, we will provide it. If you have your own opinions, we will respect that as well. It is our job to ensure that no important detail is forgotten as we navigate this process together.

Pre-Approval

Before visiting homes that meet your criteria, you must obtain a pre-approval. You may choose one of the trusted financial professionals that we recommend. We have successfully completed countless real estate transactions together and function as a seamless team.

The pre-approval not only provides you with a reasonable price range for your home search, but it also improves the strength of your offer and bolsters your negotiating position when you find the right home for you.

Home Search

Once we have an understanding of your needs and financial considerations, we will provide you with our online tools that allow you to see homes as they come on the market in real time. The Evergreen Realty Team has extensive experience in the local area, both as real estate professionals and longtime residents, with knowledge of neighborhoods, recent pricing trends, and area amenities.

Once there is a home that you want to see in person, we will facilitate a viewing as soon as possible based on your schedule. We understand that the market moves fast, and we strive to put you in the best position possible. We will ensure that you get all the pertinent details of the homes of interest so that you can make the most informed choice.

Making and Negotiating an Offer

You have found the perfect home! With the experience of numerous real estate transactions in many different markets and situations, we provide guidance as you navigate the offer to purchase and negotiation process. We will deliver the offer and subsequent negotiations to get you the home that you want on the best terms possible for you.

The Paperwork

Your offer is accepted! We protect your interests by recommending that you do the due diligence of a home inspection and radon testing. We offer guidance on interpreting the results of these assessments; a negative finding does not have to represent a setback. We will ensure that the process to closing is smooth, working with our trusted financial and legal professionals.

Closing

We will accompany you to the closing to provide support and answer any questions you may have. Congratulations on becoming a homeowner! Even if this is not your first time, it is an exciting time and we are happy for you and pleased to be a part of such a meaningful occasion. We know that a house is not just four walls, it is your home.

After the Sale

We will check in periodically and send our newsletter. We aim to be your trusted real estate advisors for life! We welcome the opportunity to be of assistance for any of your real estate needs.
