The ABCs and 1-2-3s of Home Buying

Even though buying a home is an exciting adventure, it can also be a complicated process. Our goal at Pickett Street Properties is to streamline the home buying process for you by breaking it down into understandable and manageable steps. That way you can focus on finding and moving into your dream home. We’ll do the rest.

Take a walk with us along Pickett Street. We’ll show you the way…

1) Choose wisely. When shopping for your next home, you’ll spend a lot of time with your REALTOR®, so he or she should be someone you:

(a)  Trust and respect,
(b)  Enjoy spending time with, and
(c)  Won’t mind leaving your family or friends with as you comb every corner of that condo, home or waterfront property.

These ABCs are critical to enjoying your home buying experience, so choose your agent wisely. Interview Pickett Street along with two or three other agents to find out who best complements or matches your style. Check out their professional experience and industry accreditations. Be sure to ask if they hold the National Association of REALTOR® ABR designation (Accredited Buyer Representative), which ensures that the agent has additional training and experience in handling home buyer issues.

2) Step by step. The unknown is almost always scarier than the known. For example, do you know the difference between banks and brokers, or how pre-qualification differs from pre-approval? When choosing a REALTOR®, you’ll want to work with someone who knows the answers to these questions and who can spell out exactly what you’re paying for in terms of earnest money and closing costs BEFORE you see any homes. Pickett Street has the expertise to answer all of your questions and to walk you through the home buying process every step of the way.

3) To know us is to love us. We have a wealth of experience working with home buyers and know how to make you feel comfortable to create an enjoyable experience for everyone. Regardless of your situation – purchasing a first home, moving up to your dream home, or investing as part of a larger strategy – Pickett Street can help you locate and secure the ideal property to achieve your goals. We’re homeowners and busy professionals ourselves so we know how to:

(a)  Develop a home search based on your wish list and budget,
(b)  Utilize technology to maximize our time together,
(c)  Advise you so you’re positioned to negotiate the best deal, and
(d)  Refer you to industry resources (lenders, inspectors, etc.) to ensure a smooth and successful closing.

You won’t find a more light-hearted or dedicated trio of agents, but don’t take our word for it. Scroll to the bottom of this page to read what our clients have said about working with Pickett Street
