How To Time Buying A Home

First, know that this is a just general timeline📆

👉Of course, it’s different for everyone but it typically takes about 3 months from pre-approval to keys-in-hand🔑

Here’s a general timeline of what to expect:

✔️Pre-Approval (1-2 weeks)
✔️Home Search (4-8 weeks)
✔️Offer and Negotiation (1-2 weeks)
✔️Inspection and Appraisal (2-3 weeks)
✔️Loan Approval and Underwriting (3-5 weeks)
✔️Closing and Receiving Keys (1-3 days)

Again, these timelines can vary depending on various factors like the complexity of the transaction.

It’s important to have an experienced real estate agent (aka me😉) on your side to help your through this process!
