Buy a Home with Cory Keller
Find the right home at the right price.
Cory helps buyers sort out neighborhoods, schools, commutes and value, then negotiates firmly when it counts.
1. Plan
A short call to set your budget, must-haves and timeline, and to connect you with a lender if you need one.
2. Tour
Cory previews options, flags issues early and tells you plainly when a house is not worth the price.
3. Win and close
A clear offer strategy, inspection negotiation and steady updates through closing day.
What to expect after your offer is accepted
Earnest money
Your offer usually includes a good-faith deposit held in escrow until closing. The amount is negotiable and is set out in the purchase contract.
Inspections
An inspection period lets you hire licensed inspectors to look at the structure, roof, mechanical systems and more. Cory helps you decide what to ask the seller to repair or credit.
Appraisal and financing
If you are financing, your lender orders an appraisal. If it comes in below the price, your options depend on the contract terms, and Cory walks you through them.
Title and closing
A title company checks ownership and liens, prepares the closing documents and handles the funds. Before closing, you do a final walk-through to confirm the home's condition.
Closing costs and timelines vary by loan type and contract. Ask your lender for a Loan Estimate, and ask Cory to review it with you. Related: areas served · buying new construction · relocating here.
