A REALTOR is much more than a person who opens the door for you to view the home. Choosing the right REALTOR is important as you will heavily rely on them as your advisor, negotiator, liaison, and local expert. Albeit fun and exciting, the buying process can be long and complex, so ensuring that you have the right person at your side to guide you through the process is paramount.
If you plan to finance the purchase of your new home with a mortgage, then you will also be working closely with a mortgage professional. Your REALTOR should have strong lender relationships in place, so you should be able to rely on them for direction. The first step with a lender is the “Pre-Approval Letter” which will ensure that you’re looking at homes in the proper price range.
An important service that any buyer can sign up for with our agents is automatic property updates. It ensures that you’re receiving accurate information and real time updates, and it provides access to listings days before the information is available on most public websites. In a market like Philadelphia, properties often move quick, so having the updates set up might be your edge.
