What To Expect When Purchasing A Home In Oahu

Buying A Home In Oahu

So you’ve decided to purchase a home in Oahu, Hawaii but don’t know where to start… Well, I am here to help you!

Purchasing a home is most likely going to be one of the biggest investments in your life. You need a professional real estate agent to walk you through each phase of the transaction and who is there to protect your best interest!

Pre-Qualify

First, we’ll get you to qualify to purchase a home. This is where you will learn about all different types of loans in Oahu and what the full payment will be, including the payment, interest, taxes, and insurance. If you don’t already have a lender, I will gladly refer you to a few local, sought after mortgage professionals whom I trust. They will inform you of every loan product out there and advise you on one that will be the right fit for you and your unique situation.

House Hunting

After we know you are qualified, we’ll move on to the fun part. We’ll go house hunting, I’ll be more than happy to show you around, and there will be no limit as to how many homes we looked at. I’ll make sure you know everything about the neighborhood, such as schools, what’s nearby, or anything that could possibly be problematic for the area, or a home that will affect the value later down the road.

Negotiate

Once we find your dream home, I will help you negotiate an offer in a way that is beneficial for you and the seller. Once it’s accepted, we open up escrow, give them your initial deposit, and start scheduling inspections and the appraisal. I am diligent about making sure we don’t miss any contractual deadlines so that we keep your deposit safe, and you won’t be at risk of losing it.

It is super important after the inspections to know what is customary to ask or not to ask for from the seller.  I will be in constant communication with all of the parties in the transaction to ensure that your best interest is covered and that we can close, and close on time.
