Buyer's Guide

Everything you need to know about searching for the perfect home, making an offer, and successfully closing on your new property.

A Step-by-Step First Time Buyer's Guide

Buying a home is one of the most exciting milestones of your life. To prepare yourself for this moment, you need to know what to expect during the process. This step-by-step first time buyer’s guide created by our team will help reduce the stress of buying a home and help you enjoy the journey as much as possible.

Default Image

Step 1: Research

Do you already know where you want to buy? If you want a condo, townhome, or single-family home? Which features do you like and dislike? What’s available on the market now? If you answered no to any of these questions, now is the time to start researching. In addition to looking for homes that interest you, also take note of any changes in asking prices. This could give you valuable insight into housing trends in specific neighborhoods and help you when the time comes to make an offer.

Default Image

Step 2: Decide on Your Budget

Notice we said to decide on your budget—not determine how much the mortgage company will give you. In many cases, a mortgage company will pre-approve you for more than you’re comfortable spending, which is why you need to determine the monthly payment you feel comfortable with before talking to a lender. This likely includes doing a full household budget and taking into consideration what changes other than a mortgage payment will occur once you move into your new home. If you’ve lived in an apartment or with roommates, you may overlook new expenses like garbage, water, or HOA fees that could easily blow your budget.

Default Image

Step 3: Get Prequalified

Just because you think you can afford a certain payment every month doesn’t mean the mortgage company will agree. Just as they may approve you for too large of an amount, they may also approve you for a lesser amount or deny you a mortgage altogether. Lack of time at a job, insufficient credit, past bankruptcies, or other financial issues can cause major problems when trying to secure a mortgage. Before you get your heart set on a home, talk to a mortgage professional to find out what amount you can qualify for. This will also be an advantage when you make an offer on a home, as some sellers won’t entertain offers from those who aren’t already prequalified for a loan.

Default Image

Step 4: Choose Real Estate Experts

Can you shop for, look at, and ultimately make an offer on a home without real estate experts? Technically yes, but why would you when it costs you nothing for agents like us to take much of the stress off your shoulders? Not only will we help identify properties you might be interested in, arrange showings, and ultimately handle the offer process, but we also have knowledge of the market that you don’t possess. Finding the perfect home can be a daunting task, this is where our expertise and wealth of knowledge come into play. Let us show you around some homes that meet your dream home criteria so you can find the one that's right for you.

Passion & Expertise

Our goal is to provide you with the most personalized service possible, meticulously designed to help you navigate the process of buying your dream home. We are dedicated to understanding your unique needs and preferences, ensuring that every step of the journey is tailored to achieve your ultimate home-buying aspirations.

Default Image

Step 5: Find the Right Home

This should be the most enjoyable step of the entire process (other than moving in!). We will arrange showings of homes you’re interested in that are within your price range. Take notes about what you like and don’t like, and make sure to pay attention to details. Turn light switches on and off, open and close doors, and run the faucets in various rooms. Don’t limit your inspection to the home itself. Make sure to take time to explore the neighborhood and keep an eye on traffic at certain times of the day, the parking situation, and how close it is to necessities like schools and grocery stores.

Default Image

Step 6: Make an Offer

Once you have selected the perfect home, work with your agent to craft a fair offer based on the value of comparable homes on the market. Depending on what the home is listed at and whether the current environment is a buyer’s or seller’s market, your offer may be below, at, or even above the asking price. We will be able to help you negotiate if you receive a counteroffer and reach an agreement. At this point, the house will go into escrow.

Default Image

Step 7: Have the Home Inspected

In most cases, your offer will be contingent on having the home inspected to ensure there is no major structural damage or large repairs needed. We can help you arrange this, and you can schedule it within days of making an offer. If there are no major issues, the process goes to step eight. If there is, you can renegotiate your offer based on what needs to be fixed, or you can withdraw it.

Default Image

Step 8: Select Your Loan

Now is the time to go back to the mortgage lender who pre-approved or pre-qualified you and choose your mortgage. You will be presented with various options based on your unique financial situation, including fixed-rate, variable-rate, 15-year, 30-year, or special programs such as VA loans or FHA loans. Work with your mortgage lender to select the option you feel the most comfortable with.

Default Image

Step 9: Get a Home Appraisal

Your lender will have your new home appraised so they have their independent value of it. The appraisal is to ensure that all parties involved are paying a fair price for the house.

Default Image

Step 10: Finish Paperwork

No one looks forward to all the paperwork involved in buying a home, but it’s a necessary part of the process. Fortunately, everything will be arranged by your lender and title company and, when you’re finished, you’ll know you are the legal owner of your new home.

Congratulations!

After signing the final paperwork to complete the purchase, you are now the owner of a new house. It may take a few days for your loan to be funded once the paperwork has been returned to the lender, but once that check is delivered to the seller, you’ll be all set to move into the home of your dreams.

"Tucker and his team were incredible. They sold my home in a day to a cash buyer and were able to broker an off-market sale in my most desired location.

"We used Oleg and the team at The Brokery to both sell and purchase our new home. I can truly say they set the highest standard for a professional realty firm. Oleg and his team went well above and beyond what we expected from them. They listened to exactly what we wanted in our new home, provided us with multiple options, and gave us truthful and valuable information on each property we considered. The experience and expertise of Oleg and his team were essential in our family getting the home we were looking for at the right price. They were extremely responsive in answering any of our questions and requests, which was essential in the current marketplace. Again, I believe Oleg, Tucker, and the team truly set the standard of what a professional realty team should be.

"I won’t "bore” you with details (although I will happily provide them if requested), but from the moment I selected Tucker and Oleg as my real estate agents – I knew I made the right decision. They skillfully guided me through the initial stages of the selling process and were extremely effective up to and including the closing. Oh, there was a bump here and there (initiated by me), but overall the entire process played out precisely as Tucker and Oleg predicted."

"I retained Tucker Blalock and his firm, The Brokery, to assist me in finding and purchasing a condo in the Biltmore neighborhood. It was my first time purchasing real estate, so I needed an experienced realtor who knew the process and would keep a firm hand on the controls. On a five-star scale, Tucker deserves 20 stars. (Yes, he is that good.) His extensive knowledge of the Biltmore area (and Arcadia) alone make him invaluable. For example, he knew that I needed to have a garage or fully covered parking. Once I had found a condo that could work, he confidently told me that no other complex without individual garages had what I was looking for. He then helped me prepare a great offer, respond to the seller's counter, and handle all the related tasks before closing. And along the way, he probably answered close to 100 questions from me--always quickly, courteously, and professionally. And he's a Veteran, which is very important to me. Tucker is the consummate real-estate professional. If you're looking at purchasing or selling a home in the Biltmore or Arcadia, I would very strongly recommend you speak with him! As I told him after closing, I will be a customer of his for life."

Highly recommend working with Megan if you’re looking for property in the Phoenix metro area."

"We have had the pleasure of working with a few agents at The Brokery. Most of them very pleasant. Others not so much. Who knows what they had or I personally going on so I’ll extend some grace and kindness their way. The Brokery is a great boutique firm located in the heart of Arcadia. We hope that this home might be ours if the price is right. And if not we will still use them down the road when we find the right house!"

"Megan Smith was incredible to work with on The Brokery team! For starters, she was able to get me the exact property I was after through an off market listing. She double ended the deal representing both the seller and myself and truly did an outstanding job managing the transaction on both of our behalf. She's super knowledgeable about all elements of real estate, was excellent at navigating all the challenges that came up, and she's the sole reason this deal materialized and closed. Lastly, she did such a great job at managing everything about the deal independently and keeping all parties up to speed regarding timelines, due dates, and facilitating any actionable items that we needed to accomplish. Love the experience and I'd highly recommend working with her!"

"I can’t recommend Tucker and team highly enough! I had the pleasure of working with them to both sell my home and purchase a new one, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the start, Tucker showcased exceptional market knowledge. My house went under contract in the very first week, thanks to their strategic marketing and expert guidance. Their negotiation skills truly stood out, as they fought to secure the highest price for my property. Tucker’s associate, Jaci was absolutely fantastic as well. they were incredibly approachable and made the entire process even smoother.

"I can’t recommend Tucker and team highly enough! I had the pleasure of working with them to both sell my home and purchase a new one, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the start, Tucker showcased exceptional market knowledge. My house went under contract in the very first week, thanks to their strategic marketing and expert guidance. Their negotiation skills truly stood out, as they fought to secure the highest price for my property.
