The process of buying a house. - Posted by Chad McCandless

I know this is going to sound like a stupid question, but I was hoping somebody could walk me through the process of buying a house (without a real estate agent). I’ve only bought one, and that is the one that we built 6 years ago.
After the contract is signed, is everything else done at the title company? Is the process different if you are buying a house subject to?
Please excuse my ignorance, but any help would be greatly appreciated.

Chad,
Were going through the same thing. We bought our house FSBO and now we are selling our home FSBO. The docs that we are using are pretty easy. We are using a title company in our city that deals with a ton of FSBO deals. They have the agreement packet all set for FSBO’s at anyones request, free of charge. Once both parties have agreed to the deal then the bank and title company get going to work towards a closing date. If you want to have a lawyer review the docs by all means do so. Buying a house sub-2 I’m not sure about.

Hey everyone! If you’re thinking of selling your home and want to skip the usual headaches, here’s how these guys do it—fast and clean:
- Fill out a quick form
Just give them some basic details about your property. It takes just a few minutes, and the more info you share, the faster they can craft your cash offer.
- Schedule a visit
After you submit, they’ll set up a time to check out the place. No obligation—if you like the cash offer, you move forward; if not, you’re free to walk away.
- Sign & close
Accept their offer, sign the purchase agreement, and they open escrow. Comfort Homes can close in as little as 5 days—cash in your hand much sooner than a traditional sale.
