The Lesson Plan

Steps of the Home Buying Process


1

Consultation

Meet with your real estate agent and discuss what you are looking for in a new home.

2

Pre-Approval

If you need financing, get pre-approved or pre-qualified by a lender or bank.

3

Home Search

Your agent will help you narrow down options and schedule showings.

4

Make an Offer

Negotiate the offer and get it accepted — contingent on inspection.

5

Home Inspection

Discuss results, decide if any repairs are needed, and whether to move forward.

6

Appraisal & Title Search

The bank/lender orders an appraisal and title search, and final financing is set.

7

Closing

Sign papers and pop the bubbly! Congratulations — you are now a homeowner.
