Your Buyer’s Representative WILL...
A real estate agent that you choose. Tennessee state law requires that this relationship be established in writing.
It establishes a maximum purchase price for which you qualify and a price range for your home search.
Pre-approval also strengthens your negotiating position when it is time to present an offer.
Your buyer’s agent should prepare a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) which tells you what similar homes have sold for in a recent time frame. Tax records will also tell you how much the seller paid and when they bought the home. There are other factors that go into play in what to offer including how long has the property been on the market, whether or not the seller has already moved out, are there other offers on the property, etc. After review of this information you and you agent will prepare an offer that will be presented on your behalf to the sellers.
Your agent will ensure that your offer contains several contingencies including but not limited to inspections, environmental concerns, value and condition (contingencies) of the home and ownership free of encumbrances (clear title).
“Ruby is friendly, thoughtful, knowledgeable and all around lovely! She has continued to help us communicate with the builder after our closing and has consistently validated our feelings and any concerns we had throughout the home search process.”
— Jeremy & Sarah
“Ruby was a pleasure to work with. She was there to help us and offer advice every step of the way. As first-time home buyers, she “held our hands” through the process and always had a friendly & positive attitude. She even offered to help us in any way she can with our move and had reliable recommendations for all the vendors that we needed.”
— Michael & Ashley
“Ruby is great! She goes above and beyond for her clients. Her network of vendors is extensive and I appreciated all her support in coordinating access to different vendors before I closed on my house while I was out of town.”
— Becca
