Contained within our website are many written articles and resources that you will find invaluable as you begin the process of buying a home.

To begin the process of buying a home, we have developed a standard method of operation to insure a positive and joy filled experience.  

For sake of security, there are a few simple things that will be essential to initiate the process of finding a home. 

A driver’s license or photo ID will be necessary.  You’ll be asked to show identification if you apply for a mortgage, as well.  When a buyer presents a purchase offer on a property, sellers are reassured that the buyer making an offer has secured a pre-approval from a mortgage lender.  Therefore, to best position yourself in purchase offer negotiations, you will be advised to secure a pre-approval from a reputable mortgage lender.  

We will present you with several documents to carefully read through and sign such as a New York State required “Agency Disclosure”.  The agency disclosure states for whom a real estate agent is working.  As a prospective purchaser, you will benefit tremendously by working with a “Buyer’s Agent” to represent your interest in the purchase of a home.  There are several fiduciary responsibilities a buyer’s agent must uphold to a buyer, all to a buyer’s benefit.  A Buyer’s agent has, without limitation, the following fiduciary duties to a home buyer:  Reasonable care, undivided loyalty, confidentiality, full disclosure, obedience, and a duty to account.  A buyer’s agent does not represent the interest of the seller.

There is a written agreement between the broker and the prospective purchaser called an “Exclusive Buyer Agency Agreement” which sets forth a buyer’s agents’ responsibilities, the scope of the broker’s responsibilities, fair housing matters and compensation, among other items.

Please feel welcome to navigate through this website to learn about the entire process of buying a home.
