As a home buyer it is critical that you have 24/7 access to all the homes that are on the market that match what you are looking for!

We have provided this website search tool for consumers to have access to available homes!
As a courtesy to our clients, we create & customize a search for you within our local MLS (which is where all homes for sale are put) and send you a link that you can access as often as you would like; whenever you would like.

Mortgage Approval
When beginning to shop for a home, mortgage approval is one of the most important steps to the process!
As HER Realtors we are here to help you get connected with a mortgage lender who will provide you with excellent service, valuable information and help you find the best possible mortgages rates as you begin the process of buying your new home. Your financials will remain confidential with the mortgage lender. The mortgage lender will explain: which loans are available to you, whether or not you will need a down payment, any first time home buyer grants or incentives available, the price range you are qualified for, the best rates and estimated loan payments.
They will also provide you with a mortgage pre-approval letter which will accompany any offer you make and will strengthen your offer! We encourage you to contact us today and we will be happy to provide you with a list of reputable mortgage lenders in your area!
Foreclosures
Many home buyers are interested in & excited to explore available foreclosed properties in their desired area. Often times foreclosed properties can be purchased at a great price. There are MANY different types of foreclosure properties including, but not limited to, HUD homes, Fannie Mae homes, & Freddie Mac homes. The process of buying a foreclosed home is very complex & varies widely from one type of foreclosure to another. As a home buyer, it is essential that you have a Realtor who is experienced in listing & selling foreclosed ( also known as REO) properties. Each type has a very unique bidding process and without an experienced real estate agent you could miss out on an excellent opportunity. When shopping for foreclosed properties it is also vital that you have access to up to the minute market updates on new listings as many of these properties sell very quickly, and often end up in a multiple offer situation.
