How do you buy?

Dealing with Smart Homes, there are 8 easy steps which take you from interested investor to property owner.

  1. Call us and tell us the sort of property that interests you (size, price range, etc.). We will email or mail you photos of a selection from which to choose.
  2. Select which of these homes you want or request more options.
  3. When a selection has been made, the buyer/investor makes a small refundable Earnest Money Deposit (deposit).
  4. Smart Homes will provide the investor with:
    • an appraisal of the property
    • a current property inspection report
    • copies of the rental agreement(s)
    • a partnership agreement between Smart Homes and the buyer
  5. Smart Homes and the buyer work with the Title Agency to prepare the title work. At this point, the buyer provides to the Title Agency - to hold in trust - the agreed amount specified between the buyer and Smart Homes for the buyer's 70%.
  6. The Title Agency issues a warranty deed and Smart Homes provides this to the buyer.
  7. The Title Agency registers the new (70%-30%) ownership deed with the County Land Title Office and issues a registration number. At this point, the deal is legally completed.
  8. The County Land Title Office provides paperwork at a later date.
