Frequently Asked Questions
Super Questions, Super Answers 💬
How long does it usually take to find a home?
Think of it like dating—sometimes you swipe right on the first showing, sometimes it’s a few heartbreaks and awkward walk-throughs later. We’ll stick with you until we find The One.
Do I have to be pre-approved before I start looking?
Yes, boo. A pre-approval letter is like a VIP pass—without it, you’re just window shopping. With it, you’re first in line for the good stuff.
Can you find me a home that checks all my boxes?
Absolutely… as long as you’re okay with one of those boxes being “doesn’t exist in this exact form.” We’ll help you prioritize your “must-haves” and “would-be-nices” so you still get a home you’ll love.
What’s your strategy for getting my offer accepted?
We’ve got more tricks than a magician at a kids’ party. We know how to read the market, sweeten an offer without overspending, and use negotiation jiu-jitsu to beat out the competition.
What happens after my offer is accepted?
The fun begins—inspections, appraisals, paperwork, and a whole lot of us keeping the chaos away from you. We’ll guide you through each step so nothing catches you off guard.
What if I find a home online before you do?
Send it to us! We’ll check if it’s still available, dig up the tea (good and bad), and get you in to see it before the “open house herd” rolls through.
Can you help me find off-market or “hidden gem” homes?
Oh, absolutely. We’ve got our ear to the ground, our network on speed dial, and a knack for finding homes that aren’t even on Zillow yet. Think of us as your real estate treasure hunters. 🏴☠️
What if I’m not ready to buy right now?
That’s totally fine! We can still help you get “market ready” by connecting you with a lender, setting up alerts for your dream home, and giving you tips to boost your buying power. Think of it as training for the house hunt—no cardio required. 🏡💪
