Buying A Home

Embark on Your Home Buying Journey with Jean Kurtz: Your Trusted Guide in Williamson County and Nashville Real Estate.

Embarking on the journey of buying a home is a significant milestone. Whether you are a first-time buyer or experienced in the property market, our goal is to provide you with the guidance and support you need to make informed decisions and find the home that's right for you.

Our Working Process

Pre Approval Letter

While many buyers believe the initial step is discovering their dream home, the reality is that securing funding takes precedence. We simplify the Loan Pre-Approval process by either connecting you with our preferred lender or collaborating seamlessly with your chosen lender. Once you're pre-qualified for a loan, we arrange a meeting to delve into your specific home criteria and preferences.

Schedule a Showing

The next step involves a face-to-face meeting or a Zoom session to delve into your home wish list and criteria. We're keen to understand your must-haves and definite "nos." Following this discussion, we initiate a digital search tailored to your preferences. You'll receive curated property options via email, complete with pictures and detailed information. Once you identify a property that piques your interest, we promptly schedule a showing and accompany you for an in-person viewing.

Submit an Offer

Whether you tour one home or 20 different homes, when you discover the one that resonates with you, our team springs into action. We'll craft a compelling offer encompassing key details such as the purchase price, inspection terms, closing date, and more. Leveraging our expertise, we strive to ensure that your offer is not only competitive but also tailored to your advantage. Our goal is to prevent you from overpaying or missing out on the property. Throughout this process, we maintain regular communication to keep you informed and involved.

Property Inspection

Upon securing an accepted offer, we will proceed to the inspection period. In case you don't have a preferred inspector, we can provide you with a list of recommended professionals. Following the inspection, the inspector will furnish both you and us with a comprehensive report. We will then engage in a discussion to address any concerns or queries you may have.

Appraisal

Upon completion of the inspection, your lender will initiate an appraisal process. A certified appraiser will visit the property, assess its value, and determine an appraised value. If the appraisal falls below the purchase price, negotiations will be necessary to resolve how the difference will be covered. It's important to note that the lender will only approve a loan amount equivalent to the appraised value, and not beyond. For further details, we can discuss this matter in person.

Closing Deal

Our team is dedicated to guiding you through the entire process, ensuring a smooth journey to the closing table. Collaborating closely with your title company and lender, we obtain preliminary numbers and facilitate essential steps. This includes coordinating with utility services and assisting with practical details such as updating your address in your Amazon account. Witnessing the joy on your face as we hand over the keys at the closing table is our ultimate satisfaction. We share in your excitement for the next chapter and look forward to the positive experiences that lie ahead.
