Home Search
Discovering the right home should be an exciting event. At Summit Realty NorthShore, our commitment is to make your home search as stress-free and efficient for you as possible.

How to Look at Homes

• Identifying up-front what is affordable will save time and frustration in the home buying process. It is important to consider the financing options available and to begin the mortgage pre-approval process as soon as possible. From the multitude of properties currently on the market, we will select those that most closely meet your unique needs and interests. It is best to preview only a few homes at a time.

• We will schedule time to look at homes and neighborhoods. We will arrange showing appointments with the sellers or their brokers.

• If the seller or their real estate professional is at the property when we are there, it would be best for you to limit your conversation with them.

• You can use the Buyer Checklist we give you to evaluate each property.

• In order to help us find the right home for you, we will ask you to tell us your thoughts about each property you see - the positives and the negatives. We will continue to assess your needs and buying criteria.
