How to Buy in Miami

Determine your budget

How much you can afford to spend on a house will depend on your income, debts, and credit score. It's a good idea to get pre-approved for a mortgage before you start looking at houses, so you know how much you can borrow.

Discover neighborhoods

Look into different neighborhoods in Miami to find one that fits your budget and meets your needs. Consider factors such as proximity to work, schools, amenities, and dining + entertainment.

Work with an agent

Our realtors can help you find houses that meet your criteria and assist you with the negotiations and paperwork. We also have a network of contacts who can be helpful in finding the right professionals to assist with your purchase.

Tour homes

Start touring houses in your price range and in the neighborhoods you're interested in. Take notes and photos of the houses you like, and make a list of pros and cons for each one.

Make an offer

Once you've found a house you want to buy, your real estate agent will help you make an attractive offer. The seller may accept your offer, make a counteroffer, or reject it.

Get a home inspection

Before you finalize the purchase, it's a good idea to have a professional home inspector check the house for any issues that need to be addressed.

Close the deal

Once you and the seller have agreed on a price and any necessary repairs, you'll sign the final paperwork and pay the closing costs with the title company. Congratulations, you're now a homeowner in Miami!
