Buyer Services

We understand the unique needs of first-time homebuyers, and we're here to guide you through every step of the process.

Finding your Agent

When you work with the Jamie Novak Group, you get a team who is dedicated to helping you achieve your real estate goals. We’re a team of experienced professionals who are passionate about real estate and committed to providing exceptional service to our clients.

Here are some of the things you can expect when you work with us:

Our agents have a deep understanding of the local real estate market, and we use that knowledge to help our clients make informed decisions about their home purchase whether looking for a starter home or a luxury property.

We believe in treating our clients like family. We take the time to understand your unique needs and preferences, and we work tirelessly to ensure that you find the perfect home.

Buying a home can be a complex process, but our agents have the negotiation skills needed to help you get the best possible deal. We'll work on your behalf to negotiate the terms of your purchase and ensure that your interests are protected.

We know that buying a home is a major investment, which is why we're meticulous when it comes to the details. We'll guide you through every step of the process, from the initial search to the final closing paperwork, to ensure that everything goes smoothly.

Finding your House

We understand that finding a home in a market with low inventory can be challenging. That's why we've developed a proven process to help our clients navigate this difficult market and find the perfect property.

Here are some of the ways we can help:

We'll work closely with you to understand your specific needs and preferences, so we can tailor our search to your unique requirements. This ensures that you'll only see properties that meet your criteria, saving you time and effort.

We maintain an extensive database of buyers, sellers, and real estate agents in the area. When you work with us, we'll leverage this network to help you find properties that may not be listed on the market.

We're deeply connected to the community, and we know many homeowners in the area. When you're looking for a specific type of property, we'll reach out to our network of neighbors and let them know what you're looking for. This often leads to off-market listings that aren't available to the general public.

We have strong relationships with other real estate agents in the area. When you work with us, we'll share your real estate needs with our network of agents. This can often result in off-market listings that aren't publicly available.

We can create a customized advertising strategy to get your property needs in front of the right sellers. This includes targeted email campaigns, social media advertising, and other proven marketing tactics that will generate interest and leads for your property needs.

Sometimes the best properties aren't even on the market yet. We have access to a wide range of off-market opportunities, including pre-listing properties, access to Austin’s private luxury network and homes that have been taken off the market but may still be available for sale.

Offer Process

We thoroughly explain every step in the process and stay two steps ahead of you! This is one of the most complex transactions you’ll be involved with in your lifetime. It’s critical to have a team that understands every variable of a real estate transaction and can prepare you for each step to come.

We’re the source for the source! Be it the lender that will set you up for success with your pre-approval and loan process or the inspector that ensures you know what you’re getting with the house and where there may be opportunities for repairs or improvements – our trusted extended team of resources will help you navigate ever step of the process.

There will be some up front expenses in addition to closing costs. We’ll walk you through the option fee and what that buys you with the unrestricted right to terminate during the option period; the earnest money fee; appraisal fees; inspections, etc. We’ll help you plan your budget beyond the down payment.

You want an experienced agent negotiating on your behalf. An experienced negotiator has the perfect balance of expertise, emotional detachment, advocacy skills, communication skills, and time-saving abilities to ensure that you get the best possible deal.

Our team has extensive knowledge and expertise in contracts, addenda, and associated documents required in the purchase process. We thoroughly review and explain each document to our clients, ensuring that they understand all the terms and conditions before signing. We also keep ourselves up-to-date with the latest changes in regulations, laws, and contracts to protect our clients' interests and minimize their risks

Contract to Close

The contract to close process is a critical part of the real estate buying or selling process. It involves finalizing the terms of the contract, coordinating inspections, addressing any issues that arise, and preparing for closing. We make sure that every detail is taken care of so that our clients can have a smooth and stress-free experience.

We have a second set of eyes with our Operations Director carefully reviewing the contract to ensure that all terms and conditions are met, including the price, contingencies, and closing date.

We’ll help coordinate any inspections that are required, such as a home inspection, termite, pool, septic or other specialty inspections requested.

We ensure that all deadlines outlined in the contract are met, including the inspection period, financing contingencies, and closing date.

Our Operations Director monitors the transaction closely to ensure that everything is proceeding according to plan. He will stay in communication with all parties, including the  seller's agent, escrow officer  and the lender, to ensure that everyone is on the same page.

If any issues arise during the contract to close process, we will work  to resolve them quickly and efficiently. This may include negotiating repairs or other issues that arise during the inspection process.

We’ll ensure that all necessary documents are prepared for closing, including the settlement statement, title work, and other closing documents. Again, working with all parties to ensure everything is in order for a smooth closing!

Moving Prep - Congratulations!

You’ve made it to the finish line. We’ll make sure you’ve thought of all the details to ensure a successful move and give you plenty of reminders so nothing slips through the cracks!
