Buying a Home | Step-by-Step Process

Step 1: Pre-Approval

Before house hunting, secure a pre-approval from your mortgage broker, bank, or lender. This determines your budget based on your debt-to-income ratio. If you need to sell a home first, you can still obtain pre-approval with a home sale contingency. Your lender remains involved until closing.

Step 2: Exclusive Buyer Agency Agreement

Choosing to work with a buyer’s agent ensures you receive proper representation. This agreement defines the commitment between you and your agent, guaranteeing dedicated service.

Step 3: Defining Search Criteria

Establishing clear home search criteria makes the process easier. Consider:

• Price range
• Location
• Number of bedrooms & bathrooms
• Amenities & features
• Property size & acreage

These criteria help you focus on homes that truly meet your needs.

Step 4: Hiring a Real Estate Attorney

Once you’ve found your ideal home and secured an accepted offer, hiring a real estate closing attorney is essential. Many banks require an attorney to facilitate the closing process.

Step 5: Homeowners Insurance

Before closing, you must obtain a homeowners insurance (HOI) policy for your new property. This is a crucial step in finalizing your home purchase.
