The Home Buying Process
Before You Buy
Preparation is key when purchasing a property. From down payments and mortgage prequalification to understanding the type of home that will meet your needs and satisfy your wants, I can make sure your financial ducks are in a row and your expectations are grounded in reality when preparing to buy.
The Search
Selecting your perfect home will require research, expert guidance and knowledge of the local market, and you'll need to consider what it is you're looking for. I can help you find the place that fits your taste, your budget, and your lifestyle. I'm a home hunter's best friend.
Making the Purchase
So, you've found the perfect home that meets all your criteria, from a great location to just the right square footage. As your trusted agent, I will guide you through the logistical — and emotional — challenges of the purchase process, to ensure you are in a solid position before you sign on the dotted line.

I am your partner in all aspects of the home-buying process. The Coldwell Banker® brand’s affiliations with trusted primary service providers ensure that you receive complete assistance from beginning to end. We have connections with mortgage companies across the country, featuring incredibly low rates, fantastic customer service and a fast, simple process.
Exclusive Look
This marketing platform allows me to view listings within the Coldwell Banker® network in three ways: CB Exclusives, Sneak Peeks and Wants & Needs.
CB Exclusives
Enables me to explore listings within our brokerage for a specific period of time, before they even hit the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) or are marketed to anyone outside of my brokerage’s agents and our clients.
Sneak Peeks
Allows me to view Sneak Peek listings from participating Coldwell Banker agents across the country for one business day before the listings are submitted to the MLS and publicly marketed, allowing advance notice from a powerful network of agents who are actively posting new listings.
Wants & Needs
Allows me to promote your wants and needs via a daily or weekly digest within our national network of participating agents across the country, bringing more potential matches to your attention quickly.
RealSure® Program
The RealSure program empowers you to make confident choices when selling your home and provides flexibility for when you buy a new one. It is designed to give you greater assurance and control.
In collaboration with Home Partners of America, the program includes RealSure Sell*, which gives you a guaranteed cash offer for your home while I continue to market it for a higher price. And RealSure Buy*, which lets you place a bid on a new home, even if your current home hasn’t sold yet.
RealSure Sell provides:
- Flexibility to get the best price
- Ability to receive an even higher offer
RealSure Buy provides:
- Home Value Statement allows you to make an offer on your next home as if your current home is already sold by removing any sales contingency
- Take comfort in knowing your home will sell even if a third-party buyer drops out
- Flex Stay offers you up to four weeks to remain in your home after selling to RealSure while preparing to move to your next home
