Buying a Tucson Home While Relocating

March 26, 2008 | By Kelley Koehler | Filed Under Relocating 

I work with a lot of people relocating to the Tucson area.  Usually, that process looks a little something like this:

Lots of emails and houses are sent back and forth, as you explore the Tucson home marketplace and I learn what you like and don’t like.

You plan a trip to Tucson to go home shopping, of at least 4 days, if not a week.  I preview a multitude of homes for you.

We go explore Tucson and find the right area and the right home for you.

Normally at this point – it’s about the time you’ve got your return flight scheduled.  Luckily, we can do all kinds of stuff remotely, from negotiating the offer to closing.

Although – it is best if you can come back for the home inspection.  That’s where you’ll really learn about the home, how it works, where stuff is, and see the problems uncovered for yourself. 

Need help relocating to Tucson?  Send me an email and we’ll get the details worked out.

  Getting a home loan can be a big deal. There’s a lot of news out there about interest rates being low – I remember my first interest rate on my home loan was 8% and that was a FABULOUS deal back in 2000. Generally, rates are even lower now; my past few clients have ended [...]
