1. Define your budget and goals

Before diving into the home search, we’ll take time, along with your lender, to outline your budget and key goals. Knowing what you can afford and prioritizing what matters most (location, amenities, or size) to help focus your search.

2. Mortgage pre-approval

Mortgage pre-approval strengthens your offer by showing sellers you’re a serious, qualified buyer. Plus, it gives you a clear understanding of your buying power, which helps narrow down your options.

3. Find the right neighborhood

Baltimore has diverse neighborhoods, each with unique character and amenities. Consider your lifestyle, commute, and priorities, and My Maryland Dream Home will help you find the best fit for you.

4. Start your home search with our expert guidance

The Baltimore market moves quickly, and having a real estate agent who knows the area inside and out can give you an advantage. We’ll help identify the best homes that meet your criteria and budget.

5. Make a strong offer

When you’ve found the right home, timing and strategy matter. We will help you craft a competitive offer that stands out, whether that’s through price, terms, or flexibility.

6. Inspection & appraisal process

Once your offer is accepted, inspections and appraisal come next. We will coordinate each step, negotiate any repairs, and ensure a smooth path to closing.

7. Celebrate your new home!

After closing, it’s time to settle in and enjoy your new home! Your real estate journey doesn’t end here though—My Maryland Dream Home can be a resource for local tips and future homeowner needs.
