To find homes in Sammamish try a more personalized home search by a Sammamish resident

If your looking to find homes for sale in Sammamish, WA (and beyond) or looking to rent a home in Sammamish and you are looking for a personalized approach to your home search, you have come to the right place. With all the housing websites and data available to home buyers one thing that we have found missing is the personal touch to the home buying process. This personalized approach looks like this:

• Interview with the agent: I like to begin this process with a interview this allows the buyers myself to get to know each other. This is as much as a benefit the buyer as well as myself, I love what I do and I want to ensure that both parties are in sync.
• Review financing partner: As the coordinator for everything in your transaction, it is VERY important that I know the lender you have selected, we of course have lenders that we recommend, but your welcome to choose, we just need to know the level of there expertise. The web is littered with horror stories about lenders that over-promise and under-deliver!
• Learn about you needs: This usually takes place during the interview process, however it can also begin online. Before I meet with a buyer I have them fill out my Dream Home Finder. This allows me to create a customized home search that is interactive.
• Create an interactive home search: Many clients begin there home search on some of the large websites out there, however as a member of the NWMLS I have access to advanced search parameters that allow me to create searches based on schools, bank owned, foreclose, short-sales, and much more.
• Interact online: In all cases it's important to narrow down the choices and we do this through an interactive design where I forward homes that meet your criteria. The home buyer is then able to mark the homes as, "Rejected," "Possibilities," or "Favorite." This system has proven very effective in being able to interact with the home buyer even before we get in the car to preview the property. Watch this brief tutorial to see how it works.
• Preview Properties: The footwork begins. This is the part of the home search where we get to kick the tires. As a experienced buyers agent I will point out the pros and cons of each home. It's important to look at a home both emotionally and from a future resale value. Weighing all aspects of your wants and balancing that with your needs and budget. This is an essential part of a more personalized home search.

In conclusion, can you find a ton of information online? You bet. Will it guide you in your home search? Perhaps, however if you were to want to climb Mt. Rainer wouldn't you want a guide? In the home buying experience having a more personalized home search is like having a experienced Sherpa guide you to the top of a mountain.
