Love It and Ready to Buy? 🏠 Here’s How to Make an Offer Like a Pro!



So, you’ve found the home of your dreams and you’re ready to make it yours! 🎉 But before you start packing boxes, there’s one crucial step: making a winning offer. Here’s how we can navigate this process for you as a real estate champ!


1. Your Agent Has Your Back 🤝

Don’t stress over the details—your real estate agent is here to help! They’ll draft the offer document for you, including all the terms and conditions. You’ll get to review and approve everything before it’s sent to the seller. This ensures that all your bases are covered and you’re comfortable with the offer.


2. Review Offer 🖋️📧

The first thing you will do is let us know the property you are interested and we'll handle the rest. We will form a solid offer document. This isn't just a casual "Hey, I want to buy your house!" note. It’s a detailed, legally binding proposal that we include the:


  • Offer Price: The amount you’re willing to pay for the property.

  • Real Estate Commission: Who’s covering this fee? Usually, the seller pays the commission, but it’s good to confirm.

  • Financing Period: Typically, you’ll have about 30 days to secure your financing. This gives you time to get your mortgage in place.

  • Closing Period: How soon can you finalize the deal? This is usually negotiated based on what works for both parties.

  • Additional Terms: This might include clearing the title of the property, any repairs, or other specifics related to the sale.


3. Down Payment Prep 💰

Before we hit send, make sure your down payment is ready to go. This means having the funds in place so you’re ready to move quickly once your offer is accepted. 💸


4. Review and Approve 📑✅

Once your agent drafts the offer, we'll walk you through it. We'll discuss all the terms and make any necessary adjustments. Only after you give your thumbs up will the offer be sent off to the seller.
