Make an Offer
Once you’ve found the perfect home, Jared Spears will help you decide how much you want to offer, along with any other conditions you want to ask for. He will prepare a thorough, well-prepared and creative offer to ensure you have the best opportunity possible to get the home you desire.
Negotiations
After submitting the offer, the seller will either accept your offer, reject it, or send a counteroffer. You can then accept, or negotiate back and forth until both parties are satisfied. Jared Spears is a strong negotiator who will aggressively advocate for your best interest.
Execute Contract
Once an agreement has been made and the contract is signed, Jared Spears will send the executed copy to your lender and to the title company that will be providing closing services.
Inspections
Appraisal
Your lender will coordinate scheduling a licensed appraiser to assess the property to determine its actual value. If appraised value is less than the agreed purchase price, an agreement must be made for one of two options. The seller agrees to lower the purchase price to the appraised value or you must cover the difference in cash at closing.
Closing
On closing day, Jared Spears will be right by your side as you sign the closing documents to transfer legal ownership from the seller to you.
