For South Florida Buyers

A clearer home search starts with a plan.

Before you spend hours chasing listings, it helps to organize where you want to live, what you want to buy, what matters most, what is already in place and what may still need attention. That is what this Home Buying Game Plan is designed to do.

I specifically designed this form for South Florida buyers, with the realities of buying a home here in mind.

Your South Florida Search Step 1 of 7
Step 1

Where and what are you hoping to buy?

Start with the general area and property direction. We can narrow it down together later.

* Required
Choose the best current answer. You can add specific communities or neighborhoods next.
Examples: The Bluffs, Sea Colony, Abacoa, PGA National, Palm Beach, downtown Delray, or still comparing.
How would you use the property? * Choose the primary purpose.
What property types are you considering? * Select every type you would seriously consider.
Your progress is saved on this device.
Step 2

Timing, budget, and financing direction

Your general timeline and buying range help me understand whether you are researching, planning, or ready to act.

* Required
How do you expect to purchase? *
What financing preparation have you completed? * Cash buyers may choose the proof-of-funds option.
Have you reviewed a comfortable total monthly ownership cost? * Think beyond principal and interest to taxes, insurance, association fees, utilities, and maintenance.
Step 3

Your private financial preparation

These answers help personalize your Game Plan. Your individual answers in this section stay in your browser and are not sent to me. You may choose Prefer not to say.

Private on your device
Is your income or purchase funding reasonably stable? *
How prepared are you for the down payment or cash contribution? *
Have you set aside funds for closing costs and prepaid expenses? *
Would you retain an emergency reserve after closing? *
Have you reviewed your current debts and recurring obligations? *
Do you know your current credit position? *
Step 4

South Florida ownership awareness

Insurance, flood exposure, taxes, associations, inspections, and storm preparation can change the real cost and suitability of a property.

* Required
Homeowners insurance preparation *
Flood zone and flood insurance awareness *
Property taxes and homestead planning *
HOA, condominium, and assessment awareness *
Inspection and major system awareness * Roof age, electrical, plumbing, air conditioning, permits, water intrusion, and insurability may affect the decision.

Step 5

Your priorities and decision readiness

The clearer your priorities are, the easier it is for me to separate realistic matches from distractions.

* Required
List the needs that should guide the search, not every nice-to-have.
Which location factors matter most? * Select at least one.
Are all decision makers generally aligned? *
Step 6

What would you like help with?

This is where you can tell me what you want from the process, not just what you want from the property.

          This Home Buying Game Plan is a planning tool, not a mortgage approval, credit decision, property valuation, legal opinion, insurance quote, tax advice, or guarantee that a purchase is appropriate. Current costs, property conditions, financing requirements, association information, and contract terms should be verified with the appropriate professionals.
