– Assess timeframe for sale and move.
– Get comfortable with the ins and outs of the purchase process.

The real estate market is constantly changing. Keeping this in mind, I will keep you updated on a regular basis while we search for your dream home.

After Closing, you’ll still have some things that come up that you’ll probably want some help with. My support doesn’t end once the deal is closed. I am always a phone call or email away if you have any questions once you’ve settled in. You may find that there are some outstanding issues, things you forgot to inquire about or concerns that you want some help with. I’ve been in your shoes and I know that just because you’ve unpacked your boxes and cracked open a bottle of bubbly to celebrate, you’ll still have real estate on your mind for awhile. You may see properties for sale in your neighborhood and want to know how the area is doing, for example. I’ll help you to keep track of the value of your property whenever you want to know.
Once you’ve settled in and made your house your home, sweet home, I’ll be staying in touch to see how you’re doing, answer any questions and send you valuable information through my newsletter and updates that will help you in your position as proud homeowner.
