Learn About The Home-Buying Process

When you are ready to find that perfect home, it is helpful to understand the process. Keep in mind that Mahomet IL Realtor Craig Buchanan can assist you through any or all of these steps, so do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns—that's exactly what Craig is here for.

  1. Assess Finances and Budget: Review your financial situation to determine your budget, including the down payment, monthly mortgage, and closing costs.
  2. Get Mortgage Pre-Approval: Approach a mortgage lender to get pre-approved. This clarifies your borrowing limit and makes you more attractive to sellers.
  3. Find a Local Real Estate Agent: If you have not done so already, now is the time to partner with Mahomet Realtor Craig. He offers you guidance, market insights, and help in finding the right property. 
  4. Begin House Hunting: Start looking for properties that meet your criteria and budget with the help of your real estate agent.

Once you have found a home that you like, Craig will submit an offer to the seller. Negotiations may follow, with potential counteroffers and adjustments to terms to reach an agreement. A "home offer" includes the following:

  1. Offer Price 
  2. Conditions (such as home inspections or any repairs to be made before the sale)
  3. Proposed Closing Date A well-considered closing date should accommodate the time needed for completing all aspects of the buying process, including mortgage approval, home inspection, and any required repairs or legal checks
Once your offer is accepted, a professional home inspection will be scheduled to identify any issues with the property so that the seller can be negotiated for concessions or repairs. Completing this rewarding process entails completing your mortgage application, requesting an appraisal, attending the closing, organizing your move, and, finally, enjoying your new home.
