Buyers: Shopping for your new home
Once you know how much home you can afford, you can begin looking! Our web site makes it simple to find properties that fit your criteria.
1. Go to Search Area Listings and enter your criteria for your dream home. Don’t be afraid to widen your search options as you begin. This is an educational process that will teach you much about values and the availability of homes that meet your needs. The properties listed in our web site include not only our listings, but all the properties listed by all Realtors in a five county area.
2. You can also call us to enroll in our automatic notification process for new listings. We will enter your criteria in our system, and you will be automatically and immediately notified by e-mail of any new listing that fits your price and size/style requirements.
3. Of course, Sterling Brokerage real estate professionals are always available to provide you important information about neighborhoods, home values, or to find out specific information about homes you are interested in. Your broker can help you compare home values to make sure homes you are interested in are priced appropriately. Under almost all circumstances, there is no cost to the buyer in working with a Realtor. This is normally an expense of the Seller, and one of the real benefits for buyers. We’re here to support you with our extensive expertise, at no cost to you!
4. As you identify properties that fit your criteria, your Sterling broker will make appointments on your behalf with the listing broker, and accompany you on your tour of the homes you are interested in. Your Broker, as a real estate professional, will be able to answer your questions and point out significant things you may not be aware of.
