Buying a home

I'm not going to rush you.

Buying a home is a big decision. I'll show you what's really out there in your budget, tell you what I'd be worried about, and answer the questions you didn't know to ask. If you have kids, I'll involve them too, because they're moving too.

01How it works

What working together looks like

01A real conversationYour must-haves, your budget, your timeline, and what matters most to your family. No pressure, just a plan.
02Get pre-approvedI'll connect you with a lender I trust so your real budget is locked in before you fall in love with a house.
03Tour and compareIn person or by video. I'll point out what's normal for this area and what's a genuine red flag.
04Offer to closingA strong offer, a clear read on the inspection, and updates the whole way so you're never left wondering.
02Why it matters

You don't know what you don't know.

Most buyers only go through this a few times in their life. I've been through it hundreds of times, my own deals and every deal I oversaw as a broker.

  • 01Which school system actually serves a specific address, at every grade your kids will be in
  • 02The real commute, driven at 7:30 on a Tuesday, not on a Saturday
  • 03The property tax rate for that exact city, because it varies inside one county
  • 04Your full monthly payment, taxes and insurance included, not just the rate
  • 05What a seller isn't required to tell you, and what I've seen go wrong before

04From my buyers

"Jessica helped us through the process of new construction...our first time. She was terrific. She was quick to answer questions, diligent to contact our builders when there were problems, and knowledgeable about the process we were entering. She has high integrity and you never have to wonder if she is not doing the best for her client. She has great patience and you never feel pressured to make a decision before you're comfortable. I highly recommend her."

"Jessica helped us find the property we were looking for and guided us through the transaction. She was very professional and was readily available to answer questions. She respected our preferences and never tried to push us in any direction, but instead listened carefully and worked hard to find properties that fit our needs. She was patient and took us to numerous properties before we decided on the one that was right. She was the consummate professional throughout the process."

Buyer

"The housing market is very difficult now with people taking many months to find a home that fits and get an offer accepted. Jessica worked hard to send us many listings that met our criteria. Of those we toured we found one that fit us well. She guided us through the offer process and amazingly our first offer was accepted. Jessica kept us informed along the way answering all our questions about the buying process and financing. We recommend Jessica to anyone who we know is looking to buy or sell a new home."
