How to buy a home before the holidays.
What are the steps to be in a home by year’s end?”
This is a common question I start to hear this time of year.
Here’s a simple roadmap:
If your 2024 to-do list says “buy house” - you’ve got the perfect amount of time to be settled into a new home by the holidays.
July:
Reach out to an agent for a buyer consultation to make a game plan.
August:
Chat with a lender to nail down your home price range and pre-approval letter - typically good for 90 days. (Send me a DM for my lender recs!)
September:
Fun part: Make a Wants vs. Needs list, browse listings, scope out open houses, and begin your home explorations.
October:
Narrow down favorites and submit your offer(s) with the help of your agent.
November:
Seal the deal on your new place and wrap up paperwork by month’s end.
December:
Move in, deck the halls, and enjoy the holidays in your new spot!
Reach out ASAP! You’ve got the perfect amount of time on your hands to be home for the holidays!
