Buying a home is not only an emotional process but also one that requires many facets of knowledge. You need to understand the roles of a lawyer, lender, general contractor, insurance agent, community specialist, and the list really can go on. As a person who simply wants to buy a house – it is very overwhelming to realize that to be a “Smart Buyer” one should have minored in all the areas mentioned above. How do you know if all the pieces are accurate and right? What if the inspector missed something and then it becomes your headache? Purchasing a home is the #1 largest purchase a consumer will ever make. I’ve worked with and around many realtors in my lifetime and I can hands down say VERY VERY few come to the table with the understanding of all these parts in one person. It is so rare that I can’t even credit “luck” when Barbara became my realtor…that was a hand-picked angel by God himself. All she requires of you is commitment and trust. Commit to getting the work on your end done and trust the process.
