After your initial counseling appointment, Jim will have a good idea of your wants, needs, price range, and location and will enter your requirements in the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) computer. From the many listings in its inventory, the computer will print a list of homes tailored just for you. Jim will make arrangements to show you those that seem to meet your desires.

As you walk through the homes, feel free to open the cabinets and closets. Most often the Sellers will be absent, but should they be present, they will understand your need to examine the home carefully. When a home appeals to you, make notes. It is easy to forget details. Often there will be a brochure available for you to take along to help you recall the home as you review your tour and, whenever possible, Jim will have given you a copy of the MLS information on homes you are viewing.

Don’t be surprised if the first home you see is the perfect one for you, and don’t be discouraged if none of those you visit the first day is what you want. Jim is committed to finding the one that you will want to call "Home" and will work diligently until you find it. Usually, using the "Analysis for Better Service" Jim will be able to find the home of your dreams rather quickly, and will find 3-5 homes that best fit the desires you expressed.
