Buyers & Sellers

Buying a Home

Here are some tips and best practices to reference when you’re looking to buy a home:

1. Get pre-qualified for a loan
With the help of a mortgage loan expert, you’ll identify how much you can comfortably afford monthly for a mortgage, which will help establish a suitable price range for your home search. Being pre-qualified will present you as a more favorable buyer to sellers.
2. Decide which features you want in a home
Creating a list of essentials, necessary features, and preferred amenities will provide a solid basis for your home search. Our agents will reference this list to locate properties that meet your needs as much as possible, from the number of bedrooms to flooring types and more.
3. Choose the right agent

We offer expert advice and guidance to help you find a home that fulfills all your criteria, backed by our in-depth knowledge of the surrounding markets in Lakewood, WI, and beyond, to ensure you receive the best value.

4. Make a reasonable offer

Once you find a home within your budget that matches your preferences, it’s time to make an offer. When doing so, consider any necessary repairs, the seller’s timeline for closing, and local market values. Our agents are here to help you determine an appropriate offer price and set a closing date, and you’ll work with the same agent throughout your entire home buying journey.

5. Schedule a home inspection
It’s recommended to hire a reliable home inspector to evaluate the property before closing. This allows prospective buyers to uncover any pre-existing issues such as structural concerns, plumbing problems, or foundation issues.

Selling a Home

Here are some tips and best practices to reference when you want to sell your home:

1. Prepare your home for sale
To attract potential buyers and secure a good offer, it’s essential to make sure your home is in top shape. Begin with a deep clean throughout your home and declutter by removing unnecessary items to leave a lasting impression. The exterior of your home is also important, such as maintaining the yard, repainting as needed, and trimming foliage.
2. Choose the right agent

Our agents will guide you in the selling process and create excitement around your home entering the market. We will effectively promote your listing through both print and digital channels, allowing it to reach over 15,000 agencies across Wisconsin. You’ll work with the same agent along the way who will truly get to know you and your home.

3. Set a competitive price

We’ll help you establish the price for your home by analyzing the market value of comparable properties in your area. By considering both the advantages and drawbacks of your property, our team can help you arrive at a price that meets your expectations while attracting prospective buyers.
