What's up everyone, it's Bill Olson
here in Charleston, South Carolina.
I am a local realtor who is constantly
helping people move from all over the country and the world,
right here into Charleston, South Carolina.
Now if that's you, this video is for you.
I've worked with so many clients that I have set up
an amazing system with six easy steps how we can get you
from wherever you are, right here into Charleston.
If this is your first time joining me,
or if you haven't done so yet, go ahead
below and click the subscribe button,
and ring that little bell to ensure
that you get notified any time I put out a new video.
I'm constantly making videos about what it's like
to live, work, and play right here in the
Charleston, South Carolina area.
Let's get started with my six easy steps.
The first step is you need to reach out to me.
Whether it's a phone call, a text message,
an email, hit me up on social media.
Throw up some smoke signals,
whatever your preferred method
of communication is, you have
to let me know that you're moving here.
If ya don't then I can't help ya because I don't know.
Once you reach out, we're gonna schedule a time,
not to set up a call, but I want to set up a video chat
with you, whether it be over FaceTime, Skype, a Zoom call,
this will get us face-to-face, so that we can really learn
about each other, what do you want, what you're looking for.
And get to know each other, so that I can best help you.
During this video call, I'm gonna ask you a ton
of questions about what you're lookin' for,
what's your lifestyle, so we can really narrow
down where in the area you wanna live.
Because most people think Charleston
is this small little place, where actually the whole
greater Charleston metro takes up three counties
between Charleston County, Dorchester County,
and Berkeley County, it's a lot of information
with a lot of different homes and home prices.
We wanna make sure that you find the right place
for you and your family.
And that takes us straight into number two,
which is narrowing down your criteria and location.
From all these questions that I'm gonna ask you,
we're gonna figure out exactly where you wana
live and what type of house you're looking for.
To make this as easy as possible,
so that you don't get overwhelmed.
Like I said, there's three counties there's,
do you wanna live close to the beach?
You need to live close to work, do you...
What's your price point?
All of that, we're gonna take into consideration
as we narrow down your criteria and your location.
Number three, we are going to build
out a custom home search for you.
We're gonna take all this information
that we got from our video call,
and I'm gonna put it into my system,
and I'm gonna create a custom search
on my website to send you all the homes
that fit everything that you're looking for.
So that you'll get an email every time a new home hits the
market that fit your needs to see if it's right for you.
Step four is setting up your lending.
Nowhis is the single most important step
of purchasing a home, is ensuring that you
can afford the home that you fell in love with.
What we're gonna do is, I'm gonna get you in contact
with a preferred local lender, who knows our market.
Who knows the ins and outs of our contract.
They're gonna get your information,
they're gonna let us know what your
max price point is, so that we can
further narrow down your search,
and know exactly what home you can afford.
Number five, we're gonna set up tours of areas and homes.
With this step, we have a lot of people that are
from out of town, we have a lot of people
that can come in to town to search.
Depending on your situation's gonna
depend on how we go about this step.
If you're all ready local,
and we can just go out and look,
and you're familiar with areas,
then that makes things a little easier.
But most people are relocating here.
You're gonna have to take a special trip
in to town to tour the areas and tour the homes.
One thing that I do is I have a service called
Virtual Reality House Hunting.
What this does is you, not in Charleston,
will be looking at homes online.
You might see five that you really love,
you're ready to schedule a tour or a trip
to come down and tour these homes.
But then you get here and we drive around,
and of those five, three of 'em are garbage.
They're absolutely terrible.
Now we've wasted our time.
What I'm gonna do, is you're gonna send me those five homes,
I'm gonna go out and do a full 360 degree virtual tour
of that house, send you the videos so that you can see
exactly what it's like inside that house.
And decide, okay these are worth going
to Charleston to actually look at.
Then when you come, we'll go, we'll look
at that house, we'll drive around the area,
makes sure that it's perfect for you and your family.
And then that brings us to our final step, step six
guiding you through the home buying process.
Between myself and the group of professionals
I've surrounded myself with, we will guide you
from point A to point B.
From writing that contract
and searching for homes,
all the way to gettin' those keys.
Whether it be an inspector, or my lender,
my real estate attorneys, whoever you need
I have people that can help you, so that we can make
this process as easy and stress-free for you as possible.
Moving from out of state somewhere else is stressful enough.
We are here to make sure that
that is the only stress you have.
We will hold your hand, we will
guide you from contract to close.
