Buyer Services
Advice:
We help you determine what areas to tour, what
websites to visit, what you can afford, and how the
whole process works.
Telephone
consultation: To assist you with your offer
and other negotiations your Terra Realty agent is
available to answer any questions and discuss the
terms and conditions of your offer with you.
Comparative
market analysis: Your Terra Realty agent
can easily provide you with a local comparative
market analysis which will show you past sales
information and recently sold properties similar to
the one you want to buy. This information will
assist you and your agent in making a competitive
offer on the house you are interested in buying.
Competition:
Your Terra Realty agent will call the
seller’s agent to gain any information needed to
make a competitive and solid offer. Terra Realty
plays a vital role in assisting you to make the best
bid possible and to ensure that you get your home at
the most competitive price.
Preparation of
Documents: Your Terra Realty agent will
prepare all “offer” documentation. Once the final
offer has been prepared, your agent will go over
every detail with you to make sure you understand
and answer any questions you may have.
Offer
Presentation: Your Terra Realty agent will
present your offer to the seller’s agent in person.
Your agent will also work closely and be in constant
contact with the seller’s agent during the entire
“offer” process.
Negotiations:
Your Terra Realty agent will negotiate on
your behalf with the seller’s agent on all aspects
of the offer. If necessary, your agent will also
prepare any counter-offers or addendums which may
need to be added to the original offer.
Contingency
Support: Your Terra Realty agent will
handle all of the paperwork with regards to any
contingencies which are included in your offer.
Appraisals:
An appraisal is required by all banks
before you can get a mortgage. Therefore, your Terra
Realty agent will make all necessary arrangements
for an appraiser to come by and appraise your new
property.
Inspections:
Your Terra Realty agent will ensure that
all necessary inspections are done by a reputable
company. In addition, they will make sure that all
necessary repairs are completed to your satisfaction
and on time. A Terra Realty agent will walk through
the property with you before closing so you can see
for yourself that the inspection repairs or other
contingencies have been satisfied.
Coordination
with Your Lender: Your Terra Realty agent
will provide your broker or lender any information
they require in order to fund your loan in time for
closing.
Coordination
with Title Company: We will provide the
title company with all the purchase related
documents and attain all necessary signatures needed
to close the deal.
