Contact us

Really the best way to get started is to reach out to us and talk about your specific needs. Every single home buying process looks a little bit different, so it’s important that we get to know you and your specific situation to best assist you! Our first meeting will consist of you telling us what you’re looking to do, when you’re looking to do it, and why you’re thinking about it! We’ll also spend lots of time going over the process, how it works, and what to expect. We’re here to educate and assist, not sell!

download buyer guide

If you’re reeeeally nervous about meeting with us in person, you can download our buyer guide to give you a rough idea of the process on your own time. We also give you this guide when you meet with us as a reference, so you can refer back to it while going through the home buying process. If you have trouble downloading it here, please contact us and we will send you a PDF directly to your email address.

mortgage preapproval

Unless you’re buying with cash, you’ll need a mortgage preapproval as one of your first steps. This can be intimidating for buyers, but this step is absolutely crucial. We’re here to help explain the process and can connect you with lenders we’ve worked with if you don’t know any! Your realtor and your mortgage lender will work hand in hand to get you into your home, so it’s important we’re all connected from day one to make sure you’re well taken care of.

“It’s official- <we> are moving! We bought a house, sold our house and welcomed <a baby> into our family all in the same week. We could not have done it without The Smith-Stauder Team! Victoria and Lori made this process so easy and carefree so that we could focus on our growing family! If you are looking for a home or to sell your home, they are the team to have! Stephen and I are excited for this next chapter with our family!”
