In their last video, Brieanna Kelley of Annie Mac Home Mortgage and Tom Blake, CRS, of RE/MAX Liberty discussed the very first steps to take in the home-buying process - even before you go out to see the first property! It's a lot of work, and each member of our team has personally navigated the ups and downs of buying, selling, or doing both at once, so we know the excitement, the stress, and the pain that comes with moving in Central Massachusetts.
🎥 In their newest video, Brie and Tom walk you through the next steps to take: what to do once your offer is accepted.
Key Points of the video:

• Clear to close: work being done in the background. There will be one more soft credit pull and verification of employment.
