Let me help you every step of the way. When purchasing a home, you are faced with a multitude of decisions! The primary one is whether you are actually prepared to purchase a home. Locating the perfect home is not always an easy task, and obtaining a mortgage loan can be a complex and tiring process. Although, once you have determined that you are ready to move forward with the required effort towards your home-purchasing goal, the rewards are unquestionable.
While at your side each step of the way, I will make the process of purchasing a home easier, more enjoyable, less time-consuming, and less expensive than if you undertook this challenge on your own. I will help you prepare so that sellers perceive you as a preferred buyer, help you locate and assess properties for sale that match your specifications, and help you through the myriad of details attending the actual purchase.
I am always familiar with the current homes on the market, and I know neighborhood values well, so I can help you determine which properties are fairly-priced and in good condition before you start your search.
Your first step to buying a home is to first ask yourself why you want to buy a home: to stop paying rent? To start building equity? To have a place of your own? To raise a family? To entertain business associates? To move up to a bigger house? Next, list what kind of home you'd like and where you would like to be. Be specific. Separate the "must haves" from the "want to haves."
Think of yourself as zeroing in on a target, going from the general to the specific. Consider area (city, suburban neighborhood, country); community (north, south, east, or west side); neighborhood (older and settled or sparkling new; a particular school zone; recreational facilities; and other community services such as transportation, day care, library, stores, entertainment). Ask yourself how many minutes you are willing to commute to work.
Think about home styles. How much space do you need? Does your situation require a one-level home, or are stairs acceptable? Consider size and kind of property. Do you want a newer home, or maybe an older one to fix up? Someday you or your heirs will want to sell. Consider how long you expect to live in this particular home.
Once you have addressed the above needs, your next step in the purchasing process is to get pre-qualified with a mortgage company. This can be done over the phone or even online in a matter of minutes.
Call me and I will refer you to a mortgage professional that has an excellent reputation and track record for successfully acquiring loan approval for his/her clients.
Once you've been pre-qualified and know what price range you want to stay in, I can help you determine which properties fit your needs by using the (MLS) Multiple Listing Service system to locate them.
I have the best possible resources and communication systems available today to help you locate the homes on the market that match your specifications. You can even search my listings here at my website.
I will help you complete your financing and inspections, and close on the transaction. My top priority is to make sure that your home buying experience is pleasant, cost-efficient, and successful.
We could not believe it! Our house sold in under a week and for full asking price. Greg was not only efficient but he was creative about how to make our house presentable for the sale. From the day he listed our home, things just happened really quickly...photos done, multiple listing online and people started coming through. We like his photos of our home so much that we will keep his photos of our family home as a memory of all the years past. Thank you Greg. We hope other people will benefit from your knowledge and expertise. Chuck and Jean Quon - Delta, BC
Greg did a great job of marketing our house. We are sure his innovative use of the web and Facebook for marketing helped us sell our house in 4 days and over list. His use of professionals for the photos and measurement and his recommendation that we make a full home inspection available to prospective buyers played an important part in achieving a quick sale and excellent price. Greg also helped us with the purchase of our new home. With the current overheated market we are sure that without Greg's help we would not have been able to complete our purchase successfully. Thank you Greg for your courteous and professional help at all times. We would not hesitate to recommend Greg to anyone wishing to buy or sell a property. Robin & Veronica - Mission, BC
From the moment we first decided to sell our home and relocate Greg was there to ensure that we achieved the greatest possible outcome not only for the sale of our home but also the acquisition of our new home. With Greg's first prelist visit he provided excellent advice on how best to showcase the uniqueness of our property to potential buyers. Greg's handing of the property listing, open house and offer analysis for the sale of our home plus the finding and negotiating the purchase of our new home made theentire process painless. In addition the final outcome on both fronts exceeded my expectations. For any future property transactions I may have I would definitely choose Greg and would highly recommend him to anyone considering buying or selling a home.B. Labadie - Maple Ridge, BC
Hiring Greg to sell our property was the best decision ever! He is an excellent realtor and most importantly, a very nice and honest person. Because we live in a different province, selling our property was a little bit of a challenge, and Greg has demonstrated dedication and professionalism all the way through. He has even gone the extra mile in so many aspects and has been so patient with us . He communicated with us after each showing and open house to keep us updated and informed at all times. I'm very happy with his services and would strongly recommend him!. Lozano - North Vancouver/Calgary
