What the first step of the home buying process?

You need two professionals on your side. One has been mentioned already, a Real Estate agent. We talk to you, figure out your goals and come up with a plan to achieve them. You also need a Mortgage lender unless you plan to pay with cash. A mortgage lender will help you understand 2 factors, what you can buy and what you are comfortable buying, (not always the same thing). The Real Estate Agent will help you find the home and walk you through the process. What you don't want to do, especially in the current market, is to find a home you love without having started the process with a mortgage lender. This can take a couple days to be able to submit qualifying paperwork which could be more than enough time for someone else to snag that home you loved. Likewise, you should have already formed a relationship with an agent you can trust. A buyers agent works solely for you. If you call the agent that listed the home, you need to understand they have ethical requirements to everyone, but they do not work for you. Their job first and foremost is to help the seller get the most they can for the home.

If you haven't already started, I would love to apply for the job! Just contact me and we can talk.
