Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions from buyers about working with an agent.
How much does it cost to work with a buyer's agent?
In most cases, nothing directly. The seller typically pays the buyer's agent commission as part of the sale. You get professional representation without paying out of pocket.
Should I get pre-approved before looking at homes?
Yes, absolutely. Pre-approval shows sellers you're serious and able to purchase. It also helps you understand your budget so we focus on homes you can actually buy. I can connect you with trusted mortgage professionals.

The timeline varies, but typically 2-4 months from starting your search to getting the keys. In a competitive market, it can be faster. The possession date is usually 30-60 days after your offer is accepted.
