BUYING REAL ESTATE

IF YOU CAN DREAM IT, I CAN FIND IT

Whether you are looking to buy a home, land, or commercial building, I am here to be your trusted guide that will support you every step of the way.

WHERE TO START

Create a budget.  Meet with a mortgage professional. They will review your income, assets, & credit history to pre-approve you for a loan. Getting pre-approved allows you to narrow your search & makes your offer stronger when it comes time buy. If you don’t currently have a lender, let me recommend a few. Call me 360.770.4707. 

Imagine your ideal home then make a list of everything you envisioned, such as the number of beds/baths, the style of home, and location. Then break that list down into high-priority items you can’t live without and lower-priority things that would be an added bonus. Use this list to guide your search online and to give me an idea of what you are looking for. Let's connect!

Once you know your budget & what you are looking for it is time to search. Start by setting up a My Windermere account using the button in the top right corner of your screen. I can send you potential homes and take you to tour them in person when you are ready. In the meantime, if you want some inspiration, you can peruse the pages of Windermere Living Magazine to get ideas.

This is likely one of the largest financial purchases you will ever make. It is critical to have a full-service pro who understands the market and can expertly navigate you through the intricate buying process. Don't hesitate to get in contact with me. You can find all my contact information here.

FIRST TIME HOME BUYERS

Buying your first home can be intimidating. Taking the first step can often times feel overwhelming. My goal is to make your dream of home ownership and reality. Below is a step-by-step example of what you can expect to help take the edge off.

 

When it comes time to make an offer on a home, I will negotiate on your behalf in order to attain the best terms for you. This can include negotiating the price, repair costs, timelines, and contingencies.

 

We have used Bill 3 times in the last 6 years. Once to buy a home. Once to sell the same home 6 years later. Once to buy a vacant lot to build our newest home. Bill is very experienced at what he does. We know enough about real estate that we don't require a lot of hand holding. But we need Bill for handling the negotiations and details, and for that, he's very good.

Bill is a great person to work with. His knowledge of the area helped me find the right place quickly. Throughout the whole process he kept things on track and moving along. Would recommend Bill for any local home buying needs.

Very responsive when it comes to needing his assistance, or wanting to look at a home. I have referred Bill to many people looking for a home to buy. Will use Mr. Robillard in the future for our home buying.
