Build a Team to find your Dream

Buying a home is a very rewarding & exciting time, but it is also a very vulnerable time.  That’s why it’s important to build a team made up of professionals whose primary focus & goal is to aid clients in making one of the largest decisions in their lives.

Being part of a home-buyers “Real Estate Procurement Team”  (made up of the Realtor, Lender, Home Inspector, Insurer, Title/Settlement Company, etc.) has been an honor throughout my career. First as a builder, then a Home Inspector, & most recently as a HUD Renovation Consultant.  But, I’ve also been on the other side of the table as the home buyer, & more recently as the father of a home buyer, & have experienced the emotional spectrum (follow this link to a funny article about that) our clients & their families are going through.

While there are stresses found in every aspect of real estate, from start to finish, there are also many joys.  When I ask lenders, realtors, settlement clerks, insurance agents, appraisers, (etc.) what they find most rewarding about being in real estate, the answer more often than not is “helping people accomplish their dreams“.  From my own experience as a Superintendent with Camberley Homes, as a HUD Consultant, & as a Home Inspector – I couldn’t agree more.

In my previous life as a Senior Builder / Superintendent with Camberley Homes, I always looked forward to the New Home Orientation / Homeowner Walk Through.  As the superintendent, I was there with the clients as they created their selection sheets and a 2D representation of their future home was put together.  After months of construction & working together through the stresses of building a new home, the project was finally complete, & we could breath.  The N.H.O. is the day that I got to showcase all of the efforts of the building team to create the clients dream home.

What is a Superintendent's best day? Showcasing the building teams work to create the clients dream home.

Home Inspection & Radon Testing Contingency

DON’T SHOP PRICE, SHOP EXPERIENCE!!!!

You’ve finally found the home of your dreams & can see a light at the end of the tunnel. But now you find out that you have a 7 Day Home Inspection & Radon Testing Contingency period & need to hire an inspector ASAP!!!!

One of the BIGGEST MISTAKES you could make when choosing an inspector is to focus in on the cost of the inspection.  Don’t just assume that all home inspectors are equal!!  There are a lot of moving parts to purchasing a home.  It can be timely, costly, and frustrating – BUT, remember this is one of the largest purchases of your life, so it’s to be expected.  Take advantage of the Home Inspection & Radon Testing Contingency as not only a negotiation tool to ask for repairs or credits, but as an introduction to your new home. 

So, before you start making those phone calls to choose your inspector, we wanted to give you two examples of phone calls we receive:

Realize that during this process, you’ve actually been assembling a Home Purchasing Team that can help you navigate through the labyrinth.
