Get an Inspection/Appraisal
We understand the importance of due diligence when purchasing your Colorado home. That's why we can recommend a trusted local inspector from our network of experienced professionals. Hiring a licensed inspector is a critical step in the home-buying process, as it can reveal any hidden issues with the property that could affect its value and your living experience. This thorough inspection is essential for making an informed decision and negotiating repairs if necessary. Furthermore, we recognize the lender's requirement for an appraisal to confirm the home's market value and secure your loan amount. AVA Estates Inc. is committed to guiding you through these crucial steps, ensuring that every aspect of your purchase is handled with care and professionalism.
Close
The final step involves a thorough walk-through of the property, ensuring everything is as expected. Afterward, you’ll review and sign the necessary paperwork, settle your closing costs, and officially become a homeowner in Colorado.
