Step by step
Your Home Buying Timeline
-
01
Let’s Talk
We start with a conversation about what you’re looking for, where you want to be, your timeline, budget, and what matters most to you.
-
02
Get Pre-Approved
Before we start seriously shopping, we’ll connect you with a trusted lender or work alongside the lender you’ve already chosen. Your pre-approval helps establish your budget and prepares you to act when the right home comes along.
-
03
Establish Representation
We’ll review how buyer representation works, what you can expect from us, and how your agent is compensated. Your Buyer Agency Agreement officially puts us in your corner.
-
04
Start the Search
We’ll build a personalized MLS search around your priorities and refine it as we learn what you love—and what you definitely don’t.
-
05
Tour Homes
Found something promising? Let’s see it. Your agent and our dedicated showing specialist help make scheduling easier so you can move quickly when the right home hits the market.
-
06
Build the Offer
When you’ve found the one, we’ll review comparable sales, market conditions, price, financing, inspections, appraisal, closing costs, and other terms before building an offer strategy together.
-
07
Offer Accepted
You’re officially under contract. Now the behind-the-scenes work begins. We’ll manage deadlines, communicate with your lender and title company, and keep the transaction moving toward closing.
-
08
Earnest Money
Your earnest money deposit is submitted within 7 days, and the amount is outlined in your contract.
-
09
Inspections & Due Diligence
If your contract includes an inspection contingency, you’ll complete your inspections within the agreed-upon timeframe. We’ll help you understand the findings and your contractual options before deciding how to move forward.
-
10
Financing & Appraisal
Your lender moves your loan through underwriting and, when required, orders the appraisal. Stay responsive to requests for documents and avoid making major financial changes while your loan is being approved.
-
11
Title & Closing Preparation
The title company completes the title work and prepares for transfer of ownership. You’ll receive your final figures and instructions for the funds needed to close.
-
12
Final Walk-Through
Just before closing, we’ll walk through the home one last time to confirm its condition and that any agreed-upon items have been completed.
-
13
Closing Day
You’ll review and sign your closing documents, funds are transferred, and the transaction is completed.
Then comes the best part: the keys are yours. Welcome home.
Trusted experience
Experience you can feel.
After 100+ transactions across Northeast Ohio, Stefanie brings more than market knowledge to the table. That experience helps buyers know when to move quickly, when to ask another question, and when to walk away.
A reputation is built one relationship at a time. Years of working alongside agents, lenders, inspectors, title professionals, and other industry partners bring trusted connections and practical perspective to your purchase.
But the part that matters most isn’t the number of homes sold.
It’s what that experience can do for you.
Buyer questions
Good to know before you begin.
Should I get pre-approved first?
Yes. It gives you a realistic range, helps avoid surprises, and makes your offer more credible when the right home appears.
What if I am buying my first home?
Stefanie explains each step, connects you with trusted professionals, and makes sure you understand the choices before you make them.
Will I feel pressured to make an offer?
No. The goal is an informed decision that supports your future—not simply winning a house at any cost.
