  • Guide you to homes that fit your criteria and provide information on neighborhoods, schools, real estate tax rates, and public services available in each neighborhood.
  • Make arrangements to show you homes that meet your requirements.
  • Work with other real estate agents to negotiate a fair price on your behalf and get your offer accepted by the seller.
  • Assist you in the selection of a title company, home inspector, and any other service providers you may require during the home buying process.
  • Coordinate the many activities that must be handled during a real estate transaction.
  • Be proactive in solving any problems that may arise in the home buying process.
  • Check paperwork and deadlines.

Searching for a Home

Looking at homes for sale can be exciting when you hope that one of them might soon be yours. But looking at homes that don’t fit your list of desired home features can cause your excitement to dwindle and lead to house-hunting burnout. To avoid this, your home searching efforts have to be effective.

Start with the home search basics. As you can guess, it all starts with location. You can search broad or narrow depending on what you’re looking for. A local search means that you are drilling down to a specific part of town or a specific property feature. Refer to your list of desired home features so that you can continue to narrow your search. Filter your search so that it only includes homes in the price range for which you have been pre-approved.

Conducting the search yourself is certainly manageable, but professional insight and experienced search structure be very helpful. Further, an Arizona real estate agent has a variety of home search tools that they can provide you that make it easy to conduct your home search across your different devices.

Top Home Search Tools That Your Arizona Real Estate Agent Can Provide You

Using the IDX, your Arizona real estate agent can boost your searching power by setting up a customized search with all of the items that rank high on your list of desired home features.
  • Client Portals – Another official name … a client portal is the system that your agent will use customize your home search and send you automatic updates any time there is important activity in the market that meets your specified needs. For example, you’ll receive emails with all of the new home that meets your search criteria goes up for sale. You just click on the links and view the newly listed properties.
  • Mobile Real Estate Search Application – A powerful geo-based real estate search app on your smart phone give you the power to see what home are for sale anywhere you are.

"      A mobile real estate search app bridges the gap between the online and offline home search.

When you physically find yourself in a neighborhood that you like, you just have to open the GPS-based app and it will recognize where you are and show you all of the homes that are for sale around you. You can search using the map or by address. It is easy to use and provides you with an efficient search experience. If you are driving and a home for sale catches your eye, you can pull over and use the app to find out the sales price, features and view all of the photos that are listed.

Viewing Homes

When looking at homes with your agent, be sure to take notes, take pictures (or video) and ask as many questions as you can think of.

Common questions people ask their agents are:

  • The price of the home
  • How long the home has been for sale
  • How motivated is the seller
  • How low are the sellers willing to go
  • The age of the home
  • Any renovations that have been done
  • How old is the plumbing?
  • How old is the carpeting and flooring?
  • How old are the windows?
  • Any other issues with the home
  • How much are the property taxes
  • How much are the HOA dues
  • What school boundaries are the home located in
  • Prices of other homes in the area that are comparable to the one you are looking into buying

Narrowing Down Your Choices

After a viewing homes that fit what you are looking for, you can eliminate homes that you don’t like and reassess how you have ranked the features on your list of needs and wants. After a round or two of viewings, you should be close to finding a home that you will want to buy.

Once you have found a home that you like, your agent can draft and submit a purchase offer to the owner’s agent on your behalf.
