HOMEBUYING PROCESS

YOUR JOURNEY TO OLSON HOMEOWNERSHIP

Owning a home is more than just having a roof over your head; it’s a vital step towards building equity and securing your financial future. At Olson Homes, we’re here to make your dream of homeownership a reality, providing you with the tools and knowledge to guide you into this exciting new chapter. Let’s take a friendly and detailed look at your journey to owning an Olson new home near you.

EXPLORE Our Neighborhoods

Explore our communities and find your perfect match! Whether it’s a bustling urban community or a serene suburban enclave, there’s a home waiting for you. Schedule an appointment with one of our Home Advisors to tour model homes and envision your future.

SECURE Your Homesite

Found the perfect spot? Secure it with a simple deposit. Enjoy the benefits of a brand-new construction home, from energy-efficient appliances to smart home technology, without the stress of bidding wars or hidden issues.

CONNECT with a Loan Officer

Secure a loan with help from our preferred lenders. Gather your financial documents and discuss options like grant programs or down payment assistance with your Home Loan Consultant. Consider consulting with a Tax Advisor to maximize potential tax advantages.

PREPARE for Paperwork

Buying a home involves signing plenty of paperwork. The first major document is the purchase agreement from your Olson Home Advisor. You’ll have three days to review and sign it, officially starting the escrow process. Talk to your Home Loan Consultant about locking in your rate and securing your monthly payment.

CUSTOMIZE Your Space at the Style Studio

Get creative with your home’s interior by visiting our Style Studio. With inspiration and help from a professional designer, you can select flooring, countertops, lighting, window coverings, fixtures, and more. Check with your Home Advisor or Designer about selection deadlines to ensure you don’t miss out.

TOUR Your New Home Under Construction

Meet your Construction Manager for an Open Wall Orientation. This is a great opportunity to see your home under construction and understand what’s behind the walls before drywall is installed.

FINALIZE Your Finances

Before closing escrow, update your loan with recent paystubs, bank statements, and
proof of homeowners insurance. Join the Homebuyer Orientation 30-45 days before
closing to meet your new neighbors and prepare for the final steps.

DISCOVER Your Completed Home

Your Homeowner Satisfaction Representative will give you a tour of your newly finished home, bringing your vision to life. They’ll also provide tips on maintenance and details about your new home warranty.

CLOSE on Your Home

As your homebuying journey concludes, your Home Advisor will help to ensure a smooth transition. Finalize loan terms, sign documents, and wire funds to the escrow company. With your deed recorded and escrow closed, you’re officially an Olson homeowner!

CELEBRATE Your New Home

Once your loan is funded, the deed recorded, and escrow closed, it’s time to pick up your keys and celebrate! Your Homeowner Satisfaction Representative will be there to answer questions, assist with warranty requests, and schedule follow-up maintenance. An Olson Champion will also be assigned to your community, attending HOA meetings and staying involved for ten years.
