Buying with Jana
Find the home that fits your life.
Your Path Home
From first tour to keys in hand.
Buying a home should feel exciting, not overwhelming. Here is exactly how we'll get there together — one clear step at a time.
01
Talk to a lender
Start the money conversation early. A lender looks at your income, credit, and savings and explains what you can comfortably borrow.
02
Get preapproved
A written preapproval gives you a firm budget and shows sellers you're ready — before you fall for a home.
03
Meet with Jana
Over sweet tea or a call, we'll talk about timing, lifestyle, neighborhoods, and what matters most to you.
04
Narrow your wish list
We turn a long list of wants into clear priorities and match them to the Upstate communities that truly fit.
05
Tour homes
I schedule showings, walk each home with you, and point out what the listing photos don't show.
06
Make an offer
Together we write a strong offer with the right price, terms, and dates to help you win the home.
07
Schedule inspections
Once you're under contract, licensed inspectors check the home, roof, pests, and major systems.
08
Negotiate repairs
We review the report together and ask for the repairs or credits that really matter.
09
Appraisal
Your lender orders an appraisal to confirm the home's value supports your loan.
10
Set up utilities
Power, water, gas, internet, and trash go into your name so the home is ready on move-in day.
11
Clear to close
Your lender finalizes your loan, sends your closing disclosure, and gives the green light to close.
12
Get your keys
You sign the paperwork, get the keys, and the home is officially yours. I'm still here for you long after closing.
From accepted offer to closing usually takes about 30 to 45 days, depending on your loan and contract dates.

Before we tour a single house, we'll sit down — over sweet tea or a quick call — to talk about your timing, budget, must-haves, and the neighborhoods that fit the way you live. I'll also connect you with trusted local lenders so you know your numbers from day one.
