Finding a home can take time. It is not often you find the perfect house in the first 3 you look into. A buyer will want someone that demonstrates patience and care. Someone who understand the needs and wants and how the house may fit or not fit.
Using a professional becomes very beneficial in the negotiation and contracting phases. During negotiations it is advantageous to have someone on your side to help guide you through what things might be important to negotiate for or how much negotiation power there may be. Once you decide on a price, you must then put it down on a contract, having an expert who has seen and used the contracts countless time will be important here. The contractual language may not be suitable for everyone and having someone explain it usually shows beneficial.
I want you to find the right house for you! Whether with me or someone else, finding your place to call home is most important. Do research, call around, ask questions. Purchasing a home will be one of the biggest decisions of your life, do it with someone you like and trust.
