The first step when purchasing a home in Arizona is to get pre-qualified for a loan. This is an extremely simple process that only take one phone call to your lender If you do not have a lender, Arizona Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage can recommend a good lender. During your pre-qualification process, you find out how much your payments will be if you borrow “X” dollars. For example, If you want to buy a three hundred thousand dollar house, put down twenty thousand, and finance two hundred and eighty thousand, you will want to know what your payments will be if you finance this amount. This process determines what your price range will be when searching for a home.
The second step is to find a home you like. Once you find a home in your desired location, your Realtor will help you submit an offer to the seller. The seller can accept, reject, or counter offer. Depending on the sellers response will determine the next step. There is never a formal agreement between the parties until both parties have agreed on the terms and conditions of the contract. Once there is a formal agreement, escrow is opened.
The third step is to conduct inspections which your Realtor will help you with. You hired professional inspectors to make sure the home is in good standings. In every case, there is always something wrong with every house. Even if the home in brand spanking new built in 2007, there will be something wrong. Very rarely will you ever come across a perfect inspection with nothing wrong. Once you find out what is wrong with the house you ask the seller to fix X, Y, and Z. The buyer and the seller most come to terms again. It is a contract within a contract. Once the seller and buyer have agreed on what is to be fixed, the seller makes the repairs and the buyer conducts a final walk through at the end of escrow to make sure all repairs were made.
Step four is to work with your lender to make sure he has everything he or she needs to get your loan done such as pay stubs, W2’s, and bank statements just to name a few items.
Step Five is to conduct a final walk through to make sure the home is in the condition it was in when the contract was first written.
The sixth step is to go to the title company to sign your final documents. Once the funds have been delivered from your lender, all monies are in order, and deed has been recorded in the buyers name, you can receive your keys and start moving in!
