Home Purchase in Oregon & Washington

Buying a Home

Buying a home is very exciting. How often do you go through this process? I can help you understand what sellers are legally required to disclose and what the Sellers can keep to themselves.

I will share industry trends, interpret statistics and advise you regarding the long-term value of the home you are considering.

Inspections

Buying a home is significant. You would not buy a car without driving it first; so you as a Buyer are entitled to 'Kick the Tires' and 'go for a Drive'.

The type of inspection performed are dependent on the property. Commonly performed inspections are General House Inspection, Radon Testing, Sewer Scope. A condo would not have a sewer scope inspection performed; however purchasing rural property you may want water test and septic tank/field inspection.

Every property is unique. I like to discuss options with my clients.

Financing

The housing market in Oregon is competitive. I recommend a Buyer acquire their financing BEFORE house hunting has started. Are you looking for Conventional? FHA? VA? USDA? Please ask me or see my article on Financing Requirements.
