“We are extremely comfortable working with you and feel that you are the perfect realtor for us. We really appreciate your attention to detail, how you share all details on the property with us, and your thorough note taking during each showing. We are sure that with your help, we will find the perfect home!”

And, they did! Gabriela got these clients under contract on their first choice, in a multiple offer situation, and without paying a dime over asking price.  They are so excited!

Thinking about buying a home in Connecticut? Contact Gabriela Sandoval, REALTOR.  

Buying a home can be an overwhelming process. From financing to negotiating to closing, there are a lot of moving pieces that can leave home buyers bewildered. 

I help guide you through each step of the buying process, offering sound advice along the way. I also provide you with an auto search profile so that sifting through homes is most time efficient and you are receiving auto-generated notifications about properties that meet your specific criteria.  That way, when we look at homes, you know you’re browsing the right inventory from the start.  You’ll not only end up with a great home, but you’ll also walk away with a great experience.  When we decide to work together, we will discuss your needs in depth, focus your priorities and review the inventory.  I will analyze list prices, the current market, and determine your best offer and negotiation strategy throughout the entire transaction.

Getting pre-approved by a lender
The lender will go over your financing options, what monthly payment amount you can afford, and what you can expect for down payment requirements and closing costs.  Having your pre-approval (or documentation from the bank if you’re paying cash) by the time you start visiting homes is critical so that you’re prepared to put in an offer when you find the right property.

Choosing a home
For most buyers, choosing a home is an emotional process. I assist you in this process by offering objective information about each property you look at. From local community information like schools and zoning to home-specific details like condition and amenities, I will help you find exactly what you’re looking for.

Making an offer
Once you’ve found a home you want to make an offer on, I will research recent comparable sales of similar homes in the area and analyze the appropriate micro market trends to determine a fair selling price. Based on my analysis, as well as other factors like inspections and repairs, I will then help you structure an offer and negotiate to get the very best deal possible.

Closing
Closing, or settlement, can be a complicated process and in Connecticut, requires a real estate attorney. I will help you with the steps in the process and upon your request, I will provide you with resources to locate a real estate attorney you feel comfortable with.
