Answers to common buying & selling questions
Buying
Start by clarifying your budget and getting pre-approved for a mortgage to understand your buying power. Use the website to search listings in top areas such as Bellevue, Seattle, Tacoma, and more. Save favorite properties and schedule tours online. When you find a home you love, your agent will help you submit an offer and guide you through inspections, appraisal, and closing to ensure a smooth purchase.
Getting pre-approved involves submitting financial documents to a lender who then determines your loan eligibility and amount. Offers with pre-approval letters stand out to sellers, especially in competitive markets. True Path Home Sales Team encourages buyers to get pre-approved early to enhance their buying position.
By registering for Listing Alerts, you receive real-time notifications via email about new homes that fit your wish list. This gives you an edge over other buyers by allowing you to act quickly. Alerts are tailored based on your saved preferences and favorites on the True Path Home Sales Team website.
If in-person tours are not feasible, agents can lead virtual tours via FaceTime, Zoom, or Skype. This allows you to view homes and ask questions in real time. For sellers with health concerns or restrictions, seller-hosted virtual tours may also be arranged to provide an immersive experience.

Financing
Step one is obtaining pre-approval by submitting financial documents to a lender. Next, work with a mortgage specialist to select the best loan program for your needs. After your offer is accepted, complete the full loan application and processing, including appraisal and underwriting. Finally, sign the closing documents and set up homeowners insurance to complete your purchase.
The website offers a mortgage payment estimator that calculates your expected monthly costs based on home price, loan term, interest rate, down payment, taxes, insurance, and HOA fees. This helps you budget effectively before making an offer.
The team partners with trusted lenders who offer a variety of loan types. By consulting with these mortgage specialists, you can compare options and select the loan that best fits your financial situation and goals. You can get connected through the website to start the process.
After your offer is accepted, you complete a detailed loan application. The lender verifies your information, orders a home appraisal and title search, and sends everything to an underwriter. Additional documentation may be requested. Once approved, you proceed to closing.
Virtual Services & Safety
To maintain social distancing, buyers can schedule video consultations to discuss needs and home searches. Virtual tours allow remote viewing of homes via video calls. Sellers can have virtual listing consultations and use digital tools to sign offers and closing documents electronically, ensuring safety and efficiency.
If you cannot tour homes in person, the agent schedules a video call to walk you through the property remotely. This can be a live tour or a seller-hosted virtual tour if the seller cannot allow physical visits. Virtual showings provide a safe way to explore homes during health restrictions.
True Path Home Sales Team uses technology to allow buyers to submit offers from anywhere and for all parties to sign contracts and closing documents electronically. This streamlines the process and reduces the need for in-person meetings.
