Buying Your Home With Me

Who Is a Buyer Agent?


I’m an Accredited Buyers Representative, which means that I’m a buyer agent who has specialized training and knowledge in serving the needs of the home buyers.

Buyer Agent is a real estate agent who provides exclusive services to home buyers who are looking to buy a home.

Buying a home is a complex multiple step process involving a major financial commitment. For most people, it is the largest single purchase they will make in their lifetime. Beyond the financial commitment, home ownership is an important milestone in a buyer’s life – it is an expression of lifestyle, as well as the place that will shape your family’s life for years to come.

With so much at stake, you want a knowledgeable buyer agent – a trusted guide who can help you make good decisions and minimize risks. Your buyer’s agent will assist you every step of the way; he or she can also save you time and money on the road to homeownership.

What do I as a buyer agent owe my clients when they put their confidence and trust in me to help them find the home of their dreams? In simplest terms, I owe my clients fidelity and fiduciary duty in all transaction matters. That duty includes finding the right property, guiding buyers through the process, securing the best deal, protecting your interests, and safeguarding your confidential information.

My Buyer Agent Services

I love helping buyers find their dream homes! I will work with you individually, taking the time to understand your unique lifestyle and your family’s needs and wishes. Home buying process is not just about a certain number of bedrooms or a particular zip code – it’s an emotional transaction. My end goal is to get you the best combination of price, location, features, and terms.

Anyone can buy or sell properties, but when you work with me, you will have access to the most current real estate market information, access to the inside scoop about Northern Virginia communities and have the most up to date list of properties for sale.

As your buyer agent, I will:

  • Work closely with you to locate homes and communities that fit your criteria.
  • Schedule showings.
  • Take you on property tours.
  • Create Comparative Market Analysis or CMA to make sure that you offer the right price.
  • Provide you with detailed neighborhood report – See Vienna VA Sample Report.
  • Write purchase contract and negotiate the best price and contract terms.
  • Schedule a home inspection and negotiate the terms of home inspection items.
  • Coordinate activities between Title Company and Lender.
  • Monitor Escrow to ensure a smooth problem free process.
  • Join you on a Final Walk-Through.
  • Confirm that you are “clear to close”.
  • And join you at the Settlement table.
  • I will personally handle every step of home purchase from start to finish. You will not be passed off to an unlicensed “assistant” or alternate agent you haven’t met – ever.

Going Above and Beyond

In addition, as part of my buyer’s agent services, I will commit to helping you with your home search by:

  • Previewing homes in advance on your behalf.
  • Keeping you informed on newly listed homes.
  • Working with you until we find the home of your dreams.

Home Buying Process

I have a system in place to streamline the home-buying process for you. And these are the steps:

FINAL WALK THROUGH

SETTLEMENT

Where Will We Start?

We would start the process with a casual meeting where you would have an opportunity to find out about me and my home buying process, and I will learn about your personal goals and needs and what it means to you to have a “perfect” home.

Whether that means a certain community, specific home features, commuting time, or great schools – I will ensure that you are spending your time and energy only looking at homes that completely meet your requirements.
