Get Pre-approved for a Mortgage

This should be your first step in Buying a Home. Why disappoint yourself by looking at Properties for Sale that you unfortunately cannot afford?

You can use our mortgage calculator to get an idea of the monthly payments you will occur.

We have many wonderful Local Lenders for you to work with when Buying a Home.  Feel free to shop your services to two or more Lenders at a time and see who you feel most comfortable working with.

Our recommendation is that you “Go Local” vs. using the Big Banks.  The quality of service, communication, and personal attention to detail is far more enjoyable with our experiences.

Determine Your Price Range

After talking with a Lender or with a Bank, you should now know what price range you are qualified in and can afford.

Start – Looking at Homes with one of Our Denver, NC Real Estate Agents

Once we have compiled your list of Real Estate that you want to see, The Martin Real Estate Team will be here to take you on your tour.  Appointments will be made for you so that you can take your time to view each property, take notes and ask questions. Copies of each home Listing will be provided for you.  Don’t forget your camera!!!  Feel free to ask for a 2^nd showing.  We want you to select the home that is perfect for you.

Offer – Make an Offer on the Real Estate Property

When you’ve identified the Denver, NC Real Estate for Sale you want to buy, Lets work on putting together an offer!! Your agent will be familiar with market values and will help you arrive at a price that gives your offer the best chance of being accepted.  We know how to negotiate.  Our offer will be competitive with your best interest at heart.  Be prepared to go back and forth on this process a couple times…but don’t get too emotional, it is the toughest part, but worth it once a negotiated price is accepted.  **Ask your Agent about Closing Costs** (as it is an important negotiating tool)

After Accepted Offer

Buying a Home – Once your offer is accepted, you’ll be asked to submit an Earnest Money Deposit & a Due Diligence Fee – Your Agent will go over this process before submitting your offer.

Things to prepare for leading up to your Closing Date: (Your Agent will cover all of this with you)

• Working with your Lender for final Loan Approval
• Appraisal
• Home Inspections – Prepare to negotiate on what you may or may not request to be fixed.
• Survey – Very important on all Single-Family Home purchases to make sure there are no encumbrances on the property.
• Septic Tank inspections – Most common with Waterfront Homes
