An offer can be drafted with or without conditions. A firm offer has no conditions, while a conditional offer includes protective conditions like "subject to financing approval" or "subject to home inspection".
The seller may accept your initial offer, reject it, or present a counter-offer. Counter-offers can go back and forth until one party accepts or rejects, ending the negotiations.
Once accepted, we'll work through any conditions, arrange financing, complete inspections, and prepare for the closing date when ownership transfers to you.

A home inspection is an objective visual examination of a home's structure and systems. It's a crucial step in the buying process that can save you from costly surprises.

The inspection should be ordered after your offer has been accepted, and you should accompany the inspector to understand their findings firsthand.
