Buying a home doesn’t need to be confusing — but it helps to have a clear roadmap. This step-by-step breakdown is here to walk you through each phase with clarity and confidence.

Whether it’s your first home or your third, the process can feel overwhelming. But when you know what to expect, you take back control.

Let’s simplify the journey.

Get pre-approved

Before you tour, talk to a lender. Pre-approval gives you a clear budget and makes your offers more competitive.

Find the right agent

A great agent doesn’t just open doors — they guide, advise, and protect your best interests from start to closing.

From offer to keys

Once you make an offer, there’s still plenty to do — inspections, negotiations, paperwork. Stay engaged and don’t rush the details.
