Find the home of your dreams
I'm confident we'll find your dream home in the Austin area. When we do, I'll carefully create your real estate purchase offer. The offer will be tailored keeping your needs in mind and the home, including several contingencies, such as getting financing, finishing the inspection, and a clear title.
When presenting your offer, you'll probably need to present "earnest money." This is a cash deposit submitted to the seller to secure the offer to purchase the property and is most often applied to the cost of closing. If the seller accepts your offer, we should close on the property within 30 to 60 days afterward. This allows ample time for your mortgage financing.

Negotiate the deal
Most deals don't close on the initial offer, and it's pretty common to receive a counter offer. But don't let it alarm you. We'll talk about whether or not to accept the counter offer, present our own counter offer, or refuse the seller's offer and move on.
How aggressively we negotiate the deal depends on the state of the market. In addition, we'll work within your financing budget. And when it's all said and done, we'll compose a deal that is best for you.
