Buying a home in the mountains is a big step! We know that it is a major life decision and a major financial investment. As a team of local experts we can guide you through the process.

First set a budget. Next make a wish list of exactly what you want in your place in the mountains. The more specific the better. For instance, how many number of bedrooms, style of home (traditional vs. cabin), must have mountain views or prefer lakefront home.

As your buying agent, we can help streamline the process of buying a home and make it easier for you. We have aligned top professionals in the industry, and once an offer has been accepted, we will personally help facilitate the process to close on the home. By working closely with mortgage brokers, title and escrow companies, home inspectors, and home warranty companies we will provide you with the best service possible!

From your initial search to the moment you get the keys to your new mountain home, we will be there, guiding you through the process.

13 Extra Costs To Be Aware Before Buying A Home
Whether you're trading up to a larger home or looking to buy for the very first time, in order to accurately calculate what you can afford, you need to factor in the extra costs - on top of the purchase price - that come along with the purchase of a home.
