Find Your Dream Home
Amber Post Buyer’s Guide – What To Expect
With family real estate experience for over 30 years, you get market understanding and what it takes to get the best possible price when you buy your home. With constant innovation and skilled negotiation, you will find your dream home by connecting with the right sellers.
Step 1. Start Your Search
There are so many different things to consider when buying a home. Start doing research to figure out the features you desire, property type, neighborhood, school district, and more. Learn what your must-haves are, and I will help find homes right within your vision.
Step 2. Get Pre-Approved
Why should you get pre-approved? Simple – to determine what you can comfortably afford. It also allows us to move quickly when we find the right house. I am happy to refer you to a lender if you don’t have one! We will work together with you to understand all there is about obtaining a mortgage loan.
Step 3. Tour Homes
A private tour is the best way to see a home in detail. I will help you book a tour that will allow you enough time to get a feel not only for the home itself but also for the surrounding neighborhood. Need to see a house a second time? No problem!
Finding the right home doesn’t have to be stressful.
You will have guidance through the process of understanding what home style is best for your family, as well as assist you with developing a purchase offer that makes sense and fits your needs.
Step 4. Make An Offer
After you’ve found the one, I’ll evaluate the market and draft a well-thought-out offer that also protects your interests. Your offer will be written using the most recent standard-purchase offer forms that comply with all state and local laws.
Step 5. Execute Contract
The crucial period between an offer and a final contract is an important time to stay in close contact with me, so you’re equipped with all the information you need to make smart decisions. This part of the buying process has the potential to overwhelm buyers, but don’t worry, I will be by your side the entire time.
Step 6. Home Inspection
A professional home inspection, which discloses vital information about a home, is a must before finalizing your purchase. As soon as your offer is accepted, we’ll schedule your home inspection and any other type of inspection (i.e. pool or septic system). I have a number of trusted home inspectors we can turn to.
Step 7. Closing Day
There’s no need to feel jittery before your closing as I will have you fully prepared for the day. As the buyer, you choose the title company for your title search and the closing. I can recommend reliable title companies. Let’s get the keys to your new home!

Consult on Home Selling Tactics
Oftentimes buyers don’t visualize living in your home the way you do. Make your home attractive to its ideal audience – which can help you get top dollar. Things like staging the home, making repairs or minor improvements, or even simply painting the walls can be the difference between a home resting on the market and one that’s sold fast.
