Carolyn Thompson, Broker, CRS, ABR, SRES, SFR, CDPE, MRP, CDS

**Moving to Blacksburg for Virginia Tech, Radford University or a new job? A buying plan built around your commute, budget and calendar makes the search faster and calmer.**

Real Estate Search and Sale, LLC provides home buying services and buying agent services in Blacksburg, Christiansburg, Radford and Prices Fork. Carolyn Thompson, Broker, is an Accredited Buyer's Representative (ABR) and a Certified Residential Specialist (CRS) with more than 20 years of experience.

## Step 1: Know your numbers

Start with a lender pre-approval and budget the full monthly payment: principal, interest, property taxes, homeowners insurance and any HOA fee. First-time buyers can ask a participating lender about Virginia Housing programs for eligible buyers; rules change, so confirm eligibility with the agency or lender.

## Step 2: Choose where to look

Compare Blacksburg, Christiansburg, Radford and Prices Fork on commute, lot size and price. Consider your route to campus, the Corporate Research Center or US 460, and how you will use the Huckleberry Trail and Blacksburg Transit. Buyers should verify school boundaries directly with the school system.

## Step 3: Tour in person or by live video

If you live out of town, we tour homes for you by live video and point out what photos miss.

## Step 4: Offer and inspect

Base your offer on recent sales of the most similar nearby homes. Virginia sellers provide a disclosure statement that makes no representations about condition, so the inspection is yours to arrange; we help coordinate the logistics with the licensed inspector you choose.

## Step 5: Settlement

We work with your lender and the settlement company through closing. Before you wire any money, call the settlement company at a number you've verified yourself.

## Where We Work in the New River Valley

These are a sampling of the many communities Real Estate Search and Sale, LLC serves.

- **Blacksburg, Virginia:** Virginia Tech, the Drillfield and Lane Stadium; Downtown Blacksburg along Main Street; the Huckleberry Trail and Pandapas Pond; the Virginia Tech Corporate Research Center
- **Christiansburg, Virginia:** Downtown Christiansburg, Uptown Christiansburg and the southern end of the Huckleberry Trail
- **Radford, Virginia:** Radford University, Bisset Park and the New River
- **Prices Fork, Virginia:** its rural setting just west of Virginia Tech
- **Montgomery County, Virginia:** Riner, Shawsville and the countryside around the New River Valley

This is only a sampling; we serve many more communities throughout Virginia, Maryland, Washington DC, West Virginia and Florida.

Outside our service area? We can refer you to a local real estate professional.

## Wire fraud alert

Criminals target real estate transactions with emails and texts that appear to come from agents, title companies and lenders. Real Estate Search and Sale, LLC never sends wiring instructions by email or text. Before you wire any money, call your title company or settlement attorney at a phone number you have verified independently, never one taken from an email or text, to confirm the instructions. If you suspect fraud, contact your bank and the title company right away.
