Getting to Know You
Whether you’re a first-time home buyer or a repeat buyer, our Epps Realty agents will get to know you and pair your personality and needs with our extensive knowledge of North Texas. Our agents then consider real estate values, taxes, utility and maintenance costs, municipal services and facilities, and proposed zoning changes to ensure that you get the house you want at the right price.
Pre-Approval
Before the search begins, pre-approval for a loan is a must. Epps Realty agents can recommend a broker who will work out your loan and get you financially set for the buying process.
Your Home Search
Our knowledge of the local landscape and market combined with our intuitive nature and over 25 years servicing the DFW Metroplex, means the path to your dream home will be a short, downhill walk. Our research time is your relax time. However, if you see a home you like, let us know and we can set up a showing.
Touring a Property
After working together with your Epps agent to assemble a list of the top homes to visit, your agent will schedule showings. This is the most exciting part, but be sure to take personal notes listing the home’s positive and negative qualities. It’s amazing how quickly these details can be forgotten, once you start seeing multiple homes. If you find a few houses you like, return for a second or third showing during a different time of day. This extra effort will be worth it as you will be able to experience the home and neighborhood better, especially when making such a long-term investment.
Making an Offer
Once you find the home you want, you will work with your Epps real estate agent to make an offer. With our experience, we can help you make an offer that strategically competes with other potential buyers and still works in your favor. Homes in North Texas are in high demand, but with our help we can make your offer stand out.
Contract
Once we find your dream home and successfully negotiate with the seller and their agent, then we get to contract. Once your contract is accepted, you will proceed through a number of critical stages which include inspections, the appraisal, and final loan commitment. Your Epps Realty agent will work with you at every step to ensure all of the details are taken care of.
Close
If everything goes as planned, you will then be ready for settlement. You will have selected a title company by this point, and should plan to spend at least an hour or more at the settlement table reviewing all documents, signing, and then finally owning your dream home!
