Your Real Estate Toolbox
Want to get started finding the answers to some of your home value questions or even get a home search going? Use the following tools to start and we’ll follow-up to fine tune your journey.
WHAT IS MY HOME VALUE?
We pay for a service called Homebot and offer it to all of our clients! Complete this form to obtain your home’s value and we’ll follow that up with a comprehensive (and complimentary) market analysis of your property.
Home Search App
Get started with your own home search right now! Download the MLS app and get access to listings available right now in the Southern Nevada market. We can follow-up and help you fine tune this later.
NEW BUILD SEARCH
Looking for something brand new? Use the New Build Search tool to find what many builders in the Southern Nevada market are offering. We can follow-up and get more details, too! Remember never to visit a New Home community without your REALTOR® as it could hinder our ability to help negotiate later.
HOW MUCH CAN I AFFORD?
Use this handy Affordability Calculator provided by one of our preferred lenders, Leslie McGarry with Movement Mortgage. It can help you calculate your monthly payments and more! You can choose any lender who aligns with your values, but many of our clients have recommended Leslie!
The Zak Shellhammer Group goes above and beyond, keeping themselves updated by obtaining numerous certifications and designations that increase our education in many industry-specific areas.
Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions about buying, selling, or investing in Nevada real estate? We have answers!
How do I know if I’m ready to buy a house?
Homeownership may be closer than you may think! With a stable income and good credit score you are likely on your way to qualifying for a mortgage. Contrary to popular belief, you also may qualify if you’re a gig worker or operating your own small business! Contact us today to discuss your options and to be connected to a lending professional who specializes in your situation.
How much do I need for a down payment and closing costs?
While it is always better to have enough saved for a down payment and closing costs, there are down payment assistance options out there depending upon your circumstances. It varies greatly between the type of loan you may qualify for, your financial situation, and line of work. Long story short, you may be eligible for assistance if you do not have a lot to put down. It’s critical that you speak with a knowledgeable REALTOR® with a network of professionals who can provide you options and, at least, setup a game plan to get you where you want to be!
What should I think about when choosing a REALTOR®?
REALTORS® are members of the National Association of REALTORS® and subscribe to its strict Code of Ethics. When you’re buying or selling a home it is important to pick your own team of professionals to get the job done right! Interview qualified agents who have a strong understanding of the local market, good communication skills, and experience in the type of transaction you’re making. Interview your agent carefully to make sure that your goals align with their expertise. It’s also important to make sure you align with their way of doing business and level of community service.
