Besides helping you find the house you are looking for, a good buyers agent will be instrumental in helping you negotiate a fair purchase price and will be excellent at managing all the details of the closing process.
The real work comes in helping you to negotiate the best offer for the property and then keeping on top of the loan process as well as coordinating the title company with the lender, your insurance company and the seller or seller’s Realtor.
Let’s look at the process that occurs after the offer is accepted.
Once the offer is accepted the work really starts and it is important to make sure everything gets processed in the right order.
Keep in mind there are many people that have to work together to finally get to closing on your home so you can get handed the keys.
Besides helping with the negotiating between the seller’s agent and/or the seller, a home inspection company has to be hired and scheduled to look at the property.
After the home inspection is complete, any renegotiations need to take place for repairs or adjusting the price for items that were uncovered in the home inspection process.
If after the home inspection you are ready to move forward on the property. An appraisal has to be ordered and scheduled for the property.
At the same time the loan process needs to be kept in order. The title company needs to be followed up with to make sure that a clear title to the property can be delivered. The Realtor is instrumental in making certain the closing will take place by the date specified.
