Home Buying Process – Making an Offer

Now, let’s break down exactly how the offer-making process works. Here are the steps:

1. First, you’ll view a house and decide you want to make an offer.
2. My Team will do an analysis of the property to help you decide what a solid offer on the property Could be.
3. I will help you write an offer letter and send it to the seller.
4. The seller will respond in one of three ways:

The seller accepts the offer. Everyone is happy and as soon as both sides sign the offer letter, you’re officially under contract and on your way to buying a house!

The seller makes a counteroffer. You can either accept this counteroffer, go back with another offer of your own, or walk away.

The seller declines the offer. You could then try to make a more appealing offer, if your budget allows, or move on to find another house.

These are the basic steps. Certainly there is quite a bit to discuss and decide. Listing the Pros & Cons of each property is important and understanding the current market is essential. My real estate experience over the last 30+ years can be a valuable asset in constructing an Offer to Purchase, working thru the buying process and beyond.
