The Buying Experience

The housing market is improving but some customers need help in getting the best loan possible. There are many banks and mortgage lenders who want your business so I will help you find the right one. Different loan programs have different features and benefits. All Services Real Estate sorts them out to get you great interest rates and loan servicing.

Once I create a list of properties that you are interested in, I’ll start looking at them in person. I will go with you to any open house to speak with the realtor showing the property. I can also call ahead and visit properties at your convenience – in the evenings or on the weekend.

My experience and connections help to find homes that are both on and off the market. That means that you have the widest possible number of properties to choose from. I use MLS listing searches and other internet sites to find the most active listings and to know when a new property comes on the market. My office has many social connections on popular networks such as Facebook and Twitter for the latest updates on available homes.

Once you are approved for a loan, I’ll list the things you want and don’t want in your new home. I am very familiar with cities of Bellingham, Birch Bay, Blaine, Fairhaven, Ferndale and Lynden as well as the wider Whatcom County area so I can give you background information about various locations.
