Buying
Find out the answers to some of the most pressing home buyer questions!
Should I Buy?
Whether you're currently renting or you own your own home, it's hard to know what the best move is for you: rent or buy? We can help analyze your current living situation, budget, and income combined with our knowledge about what's going on in the market to help you make your decision. We can help you figure out how much house you can afford if you want to keep your mortgage payment the same as (or less than!) your current rent. We will go over all of the benefits of home ownership as well as give you a realistic idea of the responsibilities of homeownership.
How Much Does it Cost to Buy?
While your costs may vary depending on many different factors, our goal is to be up front with you about what to expect during your transaction. There are some expenses to think about during the process. Once we get a sense of what will work best for you, we can give you an estimate for the cost of:​
-Realtor Fees
-Earnest Money
-Home Inspections
-Appraisals
-Closing Costs​
-Miscellaneous Costs

Why Hire a Buyer's Agent?
Some people who call me for information about homes for sale tell me, "I'm just going to work directly with the listing agent so I can get a better deal".
​
I can appreciate wanting to cut out the middle man, go directly to the source, and save money too! But unfortunately, what people are actually doing, is going directly to the agent who represents the seller, who is then earning twice the commission.
Having a dedicated buyer's agent (me!) working for you will not only save you time and headaches, it will actually save you money. And hey, the more money you save on your house, the more money you have to spend on fancy lattes and avocado toast! Win win!
Are You Out of Town?
Tucson's incredible weather and gorgeous resorts and communities make it a popular destination for people who want a slice of heaven away from home. Lots of my clients come from out of town. So whether you are looking for a break from the rainy Seattle weather or you are moving to Tulsa for a new job, I've got you covered. With excellent communication and technology, I can take you through the whole process no matter where you are in the world.
