## Buyer guidance

Start with a budget, loan pre-approval, and a short list of areas that fit daily needs. Compare current listings and recent sales before writing an offer. Verify school assignment, HOA documents, condition, inspections, loan estimate, and contract terms for the exact property.

## Seller guidance

Start with a condition review, current comparable sales, active competition, and your desired timing. A citywide median does not establish a home's value. Compare net proceeds, financing strength, timing, and contract risk when evaluating offers.
