Once we’ve found the right property, the next step is to make an offer to the seller. Here are a few things to consider and some ways I can help.
I will gather all the information available to help you make a good decision on price, including:
Comparative properties that have recently closed in the area
Current market conditions for the area
Current lending conditions
Automated Home Value estimates
I will help you with the things you might not think much about, like:
Items of personal property you want included
Warranty, inspections, repairs or other home enhancements by the seller
Closing date and possession
I will present your offer:
The seller will have three choices: accept your offer as it is presented; reject it completely or propose adjustments to your offer (make counteroffer)
Between your good decision making, and my knowledge of the process, putting the right home into escrow will be a sure-thing.
Oro Valley Homes for Sale - Pre-Approved v Pre-Qualified
A pre-approval letter from your lender can be an effective tool to help increase your negotiating power. Real estate agents, builders and property sellers tend to take pre-approved buyers more seriously. You are able to negotiate with more confidence and in competitive offer situations, a true pre-approval may be the deciding factor to landing your dream home. Pre-approved A full mortgage application has been completed with a Mortgage Loan Officer. There has been a through review and analysis of client's credit report. In most cases, clients have provided income and asset documentation to the Mortgage Loan Officer for evaluation. A maximum loan amount can be defined and mortgage products can be identified to align with a client's financial goals. Pre-qualified In general, a full mortgage application has not been completed. A credit report may or may not have been reviewed. All information about income and assets is provided verbally. The maximum loan amount defined is an estimate and it may be difficult to determine without thorough document review. Please note A Pre-approval is not a commitment to lend. Changes in credit or financial status during the process could affect qualifying. Your Mortgage Loan Officer will guide you.
Flood Insurance My homeowner’s insurance covers me... right? Don’t count on it. Flood protection is one of the primary exclusions on a homeowner’s policy. Even though you live in the desert, floods still pose a serious threat with monsoons and winter storms. Vacant Homes Are losses to your home covered if your home is vacant? Not Likely. Most homeowner’s policies contain exclusionary language for losses that occur when a home is deemed vacant. A vacant home is more susceptible to a loss because no one is there to prevent or mitigate it. Common losses to vacant homes include Burst Pipes Broken Windows and Vandalism. If you take some specific actions (e.g. leave personal property in the home, check on or have someone check on the home at regular intervals), your carrier may determine that your home is not vacant as defined in their policy. Market Value or Replacement Cost Why should I insure my home for more than the purchase price? Consider this client’s experience: Purchased home in March 2009 Purchase price was $125,000 Homeowner insured the home at the estimated replacement cost of $274,000 One year later, their home burned to the ground. Actual cost to replace the home totaled $261,000 Insured at Market Value, Insurance only covers up to $125,000 Insured at Replacement Cost, Insurance covers $261,000, all costs covered!
Client Reviews
Great job
Ian
Ian did a great job. On top of everything. Pleasing experience. Took away the stress.

Ian sold a house for us back in 2000 in 18 days. This past January he did it again and believe it or not, again he did in 18 days. As the saying goes, we couldn’t have done better if we tried. But of course we tried very hard to make sure all went well and Ian performed an excellent five star ***** job to sell our house. Timing of sale was perfect for allowing us to move into the new house. His expertise and concerted approach was key to making the sale go through.

Our experience with Ian Taylor was superb! He understands that he is a real estate agent and not a bank clerk as many people now treat this special but difficult job. He is very involved and helped us to keep on top of every situation. He shared all the responsibilities with us from the day we asked him to represent us till after closing. He worked hard to make sure that we (the sellers) and the buyers (with their agent) were treated fairly and respectfully. Because of his immediate and constant attention to the selling of our home, we got a buyer immediately, and through his diligence, all went smoothly. We can recommend only one other agent in our 2 decades of buying and selling houses and Ian is one of them. Thank you, Ian.

We have worked with Ian before. He is a top notch realtor.
Honest, straightforward. Integrity.
The Title company, on our last house sale made a mistake of $1400.. Ian took it out of his proceeds to make it right for us. I have never dealt with a better realtor.

Ian was a very patient realtor who worked with us for two years in our attempts to find a good winter home. We appreciate that he offered frank opinions of properties and took us to see primarily homes he thought we would like. We appreciate all the time he spent with us.
