Welcome To The Exciting
Side Of Home Buying!
Is your home buying experience leaving you frustrated?
Have you ever heard anyone complain how exhausted they feel after buying a house?
Wish you had someone knowledgeable to explain the process in “real world details” for you before you go out there to buy your home?
Well, lucky you! Now you have just found that someone!
Buying a home can be a frustrating or an exciting experience. Here you will find some real estate professional insights to help you navigate the process: even if this is your first time home buying, you will sure keep your experience in the exciting side!
I am a professional real estate agent in Metro Atlanta, GA area and have facilitated countless transactions of houses and condos / town homes – from very affordable properties to the $1,5 million homes and everything in between.
I have been privileged to advise investors who, sometimes, buy multiple properties at once - so knowledge across the real estate spectrum is crucial to find the most valuable deals, negotiate the purchase and then successfully navigating the closings.
I am looking at real estate deals 364 days a year - except for Thanksgiving: I find property for my client. I search many different public and professional data - valuable sources of information about the properties my clients want to buy.
I search data about the properties, thoroughly analyze it and crunch numbers; discover similar properties to compare ("comps") in the same neighborhood -the closer and more recent - the more helpful they will be to estimate the value of the property you want buy.
Then I work with my fellow listing agents to bring a win-win agreement that will have all parties involved with a smile on their faces.
I accompany the inspectors to check if the property is in sound footing - we look the home from the ground up all the way to roof ...you can learn quite a bit about a home by accompaning these valuable professionals.
Home buying is a multidimensional occupation - there is always so much to do and learn: I consistently attend classes on the most wide variety of topics, so I can learn more and therefore bring more knowledge - and consistently - more value for my clients.
I work with house buying clients week in, week out so I know a thing or two about this fascinating subject – and I can ease your “frustration side” while expanding your “exciting factor!”
Relax! Your experience is about to become a whole lot easier – even if you have been through the home buying experience before or if this is your first time home buying:
Please let me show many of the dos and don’ts… Albeit, I have to readily admit, nobody will ever be able to show them all!
You’d better believe there is plenty of good sense information, easy to understand help within these pages - all drawn from working with real life real estate transactions!
Let me show you around! Then return whenever you have any subject you would like to revise further…
Feel free to fire me a question that I will gladly try dig up an answer for you: Hey, this old dog is open to learn a new trick too! I will answer as many questions - as time allows me.
…And please, don’t quit your job to dedicate yourself full-time to being
a “home buyer!” (You'd better believe that I have known people who have
done just that!) Just keep reading here and trust the real estate who is working with you...
By the way, if you still have not hired a real estate agent as yet, please put that in the top of your "to do list:" A real estate agent provides you with invaluable service and it will not cost any money - as we are paid a commission established by the seller - before - property is put in the market for sale.
Let's delve within these pages together and together let's find answers and ways to keep your search exciting and relaxed...
We can learn how to find the best home for you ...If you are in Georgia, maybe even find "the" home for you!
Learn the best way to finance your new home and - if you need it - learn how to apply for the various down payment assistance (DPA) which are available throughout the USA
...Or, perhaps, if you are a veteran we will learn - no matter where you currently live in this Great Nation - how and where to activate your DD214 and buy a nice home for you and your family ...with no money down!
There is so much to do and learn about buying a home within this site and I am brimming of excitement to give some guidance on this journey that will lead the purchase of what could well be the most valuable asset that you will acquire. In any instance it is still as substantial investment, no matter what!
I will share it all with you - without holding anything back - up to the last drop of my knowledge!
We can do it! Let's do it together! And ...cheers! To your new home!
