Buy a home in Seattle

We set up your Seattle home search so every tour, comp review, and next step has context.

• Must-haves vs nice-to-haves, renovation comfort, parking, natural light.
• Lifestyle fit: commute, schools, walkability, noise, and micro-location.
• Set up a custom search + price-cut alerts that reflect real-time market shifts.

A strong offer in Seattle starts with a solid pre-approval.

• Compare rates + fees with trusted Seattle lenders; request desktop underwrite when possible.
• Understand taxes/HOA/insurance in the monthly number; watch debt-to-income.
• Have funds ready for earnest money; proofs prepared for offer week.

We explore neighborhoods so you can compare value, vibe, and lifestyle across Seattle and the Eastside.

• Walk/drive at different times; note street activity, noise, and parking.
• Review comps and price history; track days-on-market and price changes with the weekly reports I send.
• Focus on homes with strong fundamentals: layout, light, lot, structure.

We craft a competitive offer based on Seattle’s market norms and seller priorities.

• Price from recent comps + absorption; consider escalation or appraisal gap only when justified.
• Contingencies: inspection, financing, HOA (condos); dial protection vs speed intentionally.
• Clean presentation: earnest money, proofs, timelines, and clear communication.

Focused due diligence so you understand both the home and the building.

• General inspection; add sewer scope, roof, structural, or environmental as needed.
• Condos: resale certificate, reserves, budget health, rules, special assessments, and minutes.
• Negotiate repairs/credits or exit per contract if material issues arise.

We manage timelines so your Seattle purchase closes cleanly and on schedule.

• Coordinate appraisal; plan for value gaps only if comps support it.
• Final loan docs, escrow/title, insurance, and wire safety.
• Final walk-through checklist; keys and move-in logistics.
