Every successful purchase follows a clear sequence. This page maps the buying journey I use with clients, setting a brief, a superb short list, an on- and off-market search, private inspections with video, due diligence, price strategy, negotiation or auction, and contract to settlement. Work through each step to see what “good” looks like, the documents to gather, and the red flags to avoid. You can follow the process yourself or engage me to run it for you. Start with the step you are on now and use the articles below for deeper dives.
