| 1. You'll be formally
introduced to RE/MAX of Midland and your professional
Realtor. At this time, you'll receive a copy of a
State of Michigan-required "Agency Disclosure
Statement" to sign. 2. We'll discuss your financing
options and then help you pre-qualify for financing
your new property.
3. What will you be looking for in a home? We'll
discuss considerations such as size, price range,
neighborhood, school systems, proximity to shopping,
and special home features. Having a prepared list will
focus our search on your needs. |
4.
Your RE/MAX of Midland
agent will review the Multiple Listing Service
magazine and make a list of the homes that fit your
specifications. Then your Realtor will make
arrangements to escort you through the properties.
5. After investigating every property that meets your
needs, you'll narrow your list of prospects and
finally select a home to purchase.
6. At this time, you'll review and complete a
purchase agreement which includes the price you're
willing to pay for the property and any conditions you
wish to place on the transaction. An "earnest money"
deposit is required at this time.
7. Upon formal presentation of the offer, the
seller has the option to accept, reject or make a
counter offer. |
8.
When the parties have
agreed upon a purchase price and terms, the final
purchase agreement will be drafted and signed. This
contract becomes the blueprint for the remainder of
the sale and must be carried out exactly as stated.
Some aspects of the agreement may include surveys,
inspections and financing. 9.
When financing has
been approved and all conditions of the purchase
agreement are met, there will be a formal closing,
which is when you will sign the mortgage agreement.
10. Congratulations! You're a new home owner.
RE/MAX of Midland was proud to participate in the
process. |
