Step 1: Establish Your Budget

Before falling in love with a home, make sure you’re in love with the payment. We’ll help you define your ideal monthly payment, review obligations, and clarify loan/rate options.

  • Define your ideal monthly payment based on comfort and goals
  • Review current financial obligations
  • Determine loan qualification & rate options
Calculator tip: Use the Affordability & Mortgage tools to model “what-ifs.”

Step 2: Find Your Future Home

We’ll match properties to your lifestyle and priorities — so your search stays focused.

  • Preferred locations & neighborhoods
  • Bedrooms, bathrooms & home type (SFR or condo)
  • Amenities & school districts

Step 3: Write a Winning Offer

When you find “the one,” we craft a strategy that stands out without overpaying.

  • Days on market & competition
  • Seller motivation & timing
  • Comparable sales & pricing strategy
Every detail matters — and we’ll make sure your offer is competitive and compelling.

Step 4: Enter Escrow

Escrow is a neutral third party that manages funds and compliance once your offer is accepted.

  • Earnest money deposit due within three business days
  • Loan process officially begins
  • Inspections & due diligence kick off
Calculator tip: Re-check payments as rates/credits change with the Mortgage Calculator.

Step 5: Discovery & Inspections

During the inspection window (typically 12–17 days in CA), we make sure there are no surprises.

  • Schedule a professional home inspection
  • Review seller disclosures & insurance eligibility
  • Keep loan approval on track
Goal: clarity & confidence before you commit.

Step 6: Contingencies

Contingencies protect you if unexpected issues come up. If the property doesn’t meet expectations, we can renegotiate — or walk away.

  • Inspection results (roof, plumbing, termite, etc.)
  • Seller disclosures (condition, history, repairs)
  • Loan approval & insurance eligibility

Step 7: Negotiations

We negotiate in your best interest so you get the value and terms you deserve.

  • Repair requests & home warranties
  • Closing cost credits
  • Items included with the sale
Calculator tip: See how repair credits or price changes affect payments using the Mortgage Calculator.

Step 8: Final Walk-Through & Closing

We’ll confirm repairs, set up essentials, and hand you the keys.

  • Final walk-through to verify agreed repairs
  • Utility setup & mail forwarding
  • Review final docs & receive keys on closing day
