Buyer Roadmap

Buyer

The Buyers Roadmap is a comprehensive guide that assists buyers in making informed purchasing decisions. It outlines key steps and considerations to evaluate options, understand market trends, and secure the best deals.

Buying a home is a huge step: it’s about your current needs and long-term goals. There are several steps in the buying process and we need to work together as a team to meet your desired timeline for the best possible outcome. You have our whole team working for you! We encourage you to trust our advice about the current real estate market and maintain open communication through the entire process. Take a look below at the Buyer’s Roadmap to gain a better understanding of what you can expect from start to finish.

The Buyer Roadmap

1

Meet with Us

Meet with The Holsten Team to gain a better understanding of how we operate and to ask any questions you may have.

2

Make a Wishlist

Should we mutually choose to work together, it’s important we know exactly what you’re searching for. We encourage you to put together a list of features you would like in your next home, and then decide which are “must-haves” and which are bonus items.

3

Choose a Lender

Your lender plays a critical role in the buying process. For that reason, you absolutely must find a good, solid fit for your scenario. Local lenders may be able to match deals you find online, and you can actually meet in person with them.

4

Collect Market Information

We will provide insight into the current real estate market. This will give you a solid framework from which to understand home prices, interest rates, and timing to make sure any offer you submit is fair and competitive.

5

Search

We will coordinate property viewings and provide comprehensive market insights for each listing, ensuring you have all the information needed to make informed decisions

6

Make an Offer

Our job is to advocate for you. We will advise on price, objections, concessions, contingencies and negotiate your terms to ensure the best possible deal.

7

Monitor Contract Details

Once an offer is accepted, you can expect great communication with the team. We will stay on top of your dates and deadlines together and make sure necessary tasks are completed. You will be hearing from the team at least twice a week and often-times more

8

Schedule An Inspection

Your inspection is quite possibly the most important safeguard as you buy your new home. We highly recommend you hire a professional home inspector to assist with this task. The cost depends on the size of the home and additional services like a radon test or sewer scope.

9

Own Your Home!

Congratulations, you’re a homeowner! Even after the contract is closed, the team is still available if you have any questions or concerns.

I cannot say enough good things about Jon Holsten and his entire team— they are the best of the best in Northern Colorado. From staging, to cleaning, to marketing, to inspections and repairs—his team handled everything with excellence. Jon has so much experience in NoCo real estate, and it really shows. In a challenging real estate market we were able to sell our house for what we wanted and it didn’t take long! Finally, and probably most importantly, Jon is a man of integrity. He is honest with his clients and [really works] towards their best interests. Thank you for selling our house, Jon!”
