1. Assess Your Finances:

Determine your budget

2. Cash or PreApproval for a Mortgage:

Determine your If you need a Mortgage Lender I can give several suggestions that I have worked with in the past for Pre-approval, this will give you a clear idea of how much you can borrow and help you make a stronger offer when you find a home.

3. Hire Cass Riese As Your Real Estate Agent:

I am a qualified and trusted real estate agent who specializes in the Palm Beach area. I am a local agent of 40+ years who has valuable insights about the market, neighborhoods, and available properties. I will help you find a beautiful home, negotiate offers, and guide you through the process.

4. Search for Homes:

As your real estate agent, I will help you to identify properties that match your preferences and budget. I will arrange showings and provide you with information about each property.

5. Home Selection and Offer:

Once you find a home you like, I will help you prepare a competitive offer using a Florida "AS IS" Residential Contract, that may include addendums to the sale contract. This offer includes the price you're willing to pay, contingencies (such as home inspection and appraisal), and other terms.

6. Negotiation:

The seller may accept your offer, reject it, or counteroffer. Negotiations might involve adjustments to the price, contingencies, or other terms. I will guide you through this process to achieve the best outcome and have them documented in the final contract.

7. Home Inspection:

Upon mutual acceptance of the offer, I will schedule a home inspection with a licensed inspector. The inspection will reveal any potential issues with the property, allowing you to make an informed decision about proceeding with the purchase.

8. Finalizing the Mortgage:

You will work closely with your lender to provide any necessary documentation and fulfill the conditions of your mortgage approval. Once everything is in order, you'll receive a loan commitment letter.

9. Title Search and Insurance:

I can suggest reputable title companies that I have worked with in the past that will conduct a title search to ensure there are no liens or legal issues associated with the property. You'll also need to purchase title insurance to protect your ownership rights.

10. Finalizing Details:

I'll coordinate with the selling agent to finalize any remaining details, including the closing date and time.

11. Closing: In-Person or Electronic Signing:

I will attend the closing meeting with you or for you, you will need to sign all the necessary paperwork, including the mortgage agreement, title documents, and other legal forms. You'll also pay closing costs, which may include fees for various services

12. Transfer of Ownership:

Once all paperwork is signed and funds are transferred, you'll receive the keys to your new home, and the property ownership will officially be transferred to you.

13. Post-Closing Steps:

Relax and enjoy your new home in Palm Beach! Congratulations!
