Buying a Home with MA Realty

STEP 1 — Initial Consultation & Needs Assessment

We begin by understanding your goals:

• Your preferred location, school district, and commute
• Budget and financing readiness
• Home style, size, age, and must-have features
• Timeline and expectations

Our agents will create a personalized search strategy tailored to your lifestyle and investment goals.

STEP 2 — Get Pre-Approved for a Mortgage

A pre-approval strengthens your offer and helps define your purchasing power. We help connect you with trusted lenders who can assist with:

• Loan options (Conventional, FHA, VA, Jumbo, etc.)
• Pre-approval letters
• Interest rate guidance

STEP 4 — Make an Offer (Offer Strategy & Negotiation)

Once you find the perfect property, we will:

• Evaluate comps & market conditions
• Develop a competitive offer strategy
• Discuss contingencies (inspection, appraisal, financing)
• Present and negotiate on your behalf

Our negotiation approach is tailored, professional, and results-driven.

STEP 5 — Under Contract & Option Period

After the seller accepts your offer, the home officially goes Under Contract.

During the Option Period (if applicable), you can:

• Conduct a home inspection
• Request repairs or credits
• Reevaluate the property with full transparency

We guide you on which repairs matter, what is negotiable, and how to protect your best interests.

STEP 7 — Appraisal & Final Loan Approval

For financed buyers:

• The lender orders an appraisal
• Underwriting reviews your documents
• Final conditions are cleared for loan approval (“Clear to Close”)

MA Realty stays in communication with your lender to keep things moving smoothly.

STEP 8 — Final Walk-Through

Right before closing, we walk the property with you to confirm:

• Repairs completed
• Property is in agreed condition
• No new issues have appeared

This step ensures peace of mind before signing.
