No, please do NOT ever wire money to nobody promising you a reservation, no matter what other realtors might have told you. This is not common practice. It’s always easy to send money but difficult to get your money back. Always speak to your banker first and secure your funding.

Yes, but not at the very beginning. First you will work with me to find the home you are looking to buy. Then I write the offer and secure agreement from the seller.
