Buying real estate?

Let us guide you every step of the way.

We simplify the complex.

Buying real estate may be one of the most complex transactions you experience in your lifetime.

There are a few major steps in the purchase process.

  1. Finding the right property.

  2. Getting an offer accepted, often in spite of competing buyers.

  3. Complying with legal regulations and cooperating with other parties to get the deal to closing (inspectors, lenders, appraisers, attorneys, agents, insurance companies, movers…)

These three steps sound simple enough but each one of them requires many smaller steps along the way, with pitfalls that can cost alot of money or prevent a deal from getting to the closing table. Our job is to bring our knowledge of the process and the market to bear on your behalf. Our team, including the buyer specialist, transaction coordinator, office manager and lead agent will all work together to be sure nothing is overlooked and you always know what the next step of the process is. We will make the complex simple as we take it one step at a time, together.

We always put your interests first.

Our team fully embraces our fiduciary duty to each client — the highest duty known to the law. This relationship carries the same weight in our eyes as one you’d have with an attorney, financial advisor, or accountant. We take it seriously and expect you to view us as an agent and team that you can trust.

As codified in the Realtor code of conduct, we are committed to providing these fiduciary duties to each client:

▪ Loyalty ▪ Confidentiality ▪ Disclosure ▪ Obedience

▪ Reasonable care and diligence ▪ Accounting

We are experienced negotiators with real world results.

We are experts at creating offers that stand out from the competition. Only experienced negotiators are brought onto The Holscher Team — buyer specialists who have closed many transactions and have conducted numerous real estate deals of our own. Each of our agents share entrepreneurial backgrounds and bring outside the box thinking and a go-getter attitude to every opportunity and challenge.

Please reach out and we’ll get to know you a little better and determine if our team can bring this high level of service to your home purchase.
