Relocating? Let me be your guide
Moving to a new town is stressful on its own, without mixing in the daunting task of searching for a home in addition to finding a Realtor you can trust. At
Thomas-Chambers Company
BRE # 01208644, I understand this, and I am an expert in relocation. I have a long history of finding buyers the right home by going through a very specific checklist to help you efficiently narrow your options.
When relocating, you often don't have the time to look at every home on the market. At best, you might get be shown 20 to 25, so whittle down that list first thing with these tips:
- Before leaving town, write your needs into one list. Then put the things you simply want in another. When a property comes up short on your must-haves, it's one less house to look at.
- Know your budget. If you are getting a mortgage, secure your pre-approved amount in advance so we can eliminate homes beyond your price range.
- How long of a commute are you comfortable making each day to work and other activities? Traffic in the Oakland area could be different than what you're currently experiencing, so let me know your expected drive-time, and I'll find homes accordingly.
Before we meet in person, I could send you recommendations for properties we should see first. Or if you've done your own research already, let me know what you've found. While seeing listing photos on the web is invaluable, there's nothing like seeing homes in person. I can schedule any necessary appointments and map a route. We could see up to 8 or 10 homes in a single day with the proper planning.
My goal is to see to it that by the time you leave town, you can be comfortable in the knowledge you're on the right track to finding the best home for your family. Call me today at
