5 essential steps to buying your first home with me

Find the perfect place to call home

Buying your first home is an exciting experience. Imagine finding that perfect place, where every corner resonates with your dreams and expectations. San Fernando Valley has a unique charm, from its vibrant streets to those cozy neighborhoods that look like they came out of a postcard. But, as you well know, the road can be complicated if you don't have the right guide. That's where I, Alber Moya, come in to make this journey as pleasant as the destination itself.

1. Define your priorities: Beyond bricks and mortar

The first step is to get to know yourself. What are you really looking for in a home? This goes beyond how many bedrooms or bathrooms you need. It’s about understanding your lifestyle. Do you love to cook and need a spacious kitchen? Do you dream of a yard for your pets? By defining your priorities, we can focus our search on properties that not only meet your basic needs, but also enrich your daily life. My personalized approach is based on listening carefully to your desires and priorities, then turning them into a clear, tangible list of what your future home will be.

2. Set a realistic budget: The freedom to dream with your feet on the ground

Talking about money isn't always the most exciting thing to do, but it's essential. Together, we'll review your financial situation and determine a budget that will allow you to enjoy your new home without worrying about financial stress. This includes considering all the costs involved, such as taxes, insurance, and maintenance expenses. As part of the Luxury Collective in Sherman Oaks, I have access to exclusive resources that can help you secure the best financing available. I'm committed to guiding you to make informed and confident decisions, with no surprises along the way.

3. Get to know San Fernando Valley: A tour of your future neighborhoods

The San Fernando Valley is a mosaic of unique communities, each with its own flavor and style. From the rolling hills of Sherman Oaks to the quiet nooks of Sylmar, I invite you to explore each area to find the one that resonates with you the most. During this journey, I will share my knowledge of each neighborhood, highlighting schools, parks, and community activities that might interest you. My connection to the local community and my love of Los Angeles culture allow me to offer you an authentic and enriching perspective of every corner of the Valley.

4. Visit properties: From the screen to reality

The online search is just the beginning. Once we’ve identified potential properties, we’ll arrange viewings so you can experience firsthand what each home has to offer. This is the time to let your senses guide your decision: How does the light feel coming through the windows? How does the surroundings make you feel? At every viewing, I’ll be by your side, helping you identify both the strengths and potential challenges of each property. My goal is to make you feel confident and excited about your options.

5. Close the deal: Turning a dream into reality

Once you’ve found the perfect home, it’s time to make an offer. This is where my negotiation expertise comes into play. I’ll work tirelessly to ensure you get the best value possible, taking care of every detail of the closing process. From the initial offer to the contract signing, I’ll keep you informed and protected every step of the way. My commitment to you doesn’t end when you receive the keys; I’m here to support you in your new life as a homeowner, celebrating every success and overcoming any challenges together.
