How does the buying process work?
How does the buying process work?
We guide you step by step:
You choose or enquire about a property
We explain and translate all details
We contact the agent or seller for you
We support the communication between yourself and the seller at all stages if you employ us to help you (a fee will apply for any services we provide. Further details can be discussed about our fees upon contact).
From September onwards we can visit and video the property for you, explaining as we examine the property for you any potential problems that may be visible on first inspection. If you like the property and see potential we would advice a though inspection by third parties such as insurance and fore and safety department for a more thorough inspection with documented problems and potential problems report.
Should you wish to visit yourself we can communicate with the sellers, drive you to the property for inspection and show you the local neighborhood. Remember however, that we are not real estate agents, we are simply there to translate for you, offer friendly support, and put you in contact with the right agencies with our help in any communication barriers which may exist between seller and buyer.(This service will incur a fee).
