How we help
An agent on your side, start to finish.
See everything, even what is not online.
Search every listing here and set alerts so new homes reach you the day they are listed. We also have several private listings that are not publicly available. Ask us.
Know the house.
We bring a renovator’s eye to every tour. We point out what is new, what is tired and what it costs to fix, so your offer reflects the real house.
Win it, then close it.
We write a strong offer, negotiate the inspection and track every deadline in your contract until you have the keys.
What happens after your offer is accepted
Four to six weeks to closing.
A typical financed purchase. Your contract sets the exact dates.
-
Day one
Your offer is accepted.
The contract is signed and its dates start running. We put every deadline on one calendar and remind you before each one.
-
The first days
Earnest money and the loan.
Your deposit goes to the escrow holder and your loan application goes in. We keep the lender and the other agent in step.
-
The first week or two
The home inspection.
We go through the report with you. We know renovation firsthand, so we can tell you what a repair really involves and what it should cost, then negotiate repairs or credits.
-
Weeks two to three
Appraisal and title.
The lender orders the appraisal; the title company searches the records. We watch both and answer what comes up.
-
Final week
Loan approval and walk-through.
The lender clears the loan, you review your closing figures, and we walk the home once more before you sign.
-
Four to six weeks in
You close, and the keys are yours.
For most financed purchases, closing lands four to six weeks after the offer is accepted. Cash can close sooner.

Questions buyers ask.
Does it cost anything to work with a GRAVITY agent as a buyer?
No client fees at GRAVITY: we never add an administrative or transaction fee to your closing. How your agent is paid is set out in writing in your buyer agreement before you tour, and we walk you through it.
How long does it take to buy a home?
Finding the right home takes as long as it takes. Once your offer is accepted, a financed purchase usually closes in four to six weeks.
Which areas do you cover?
The New River Valley, Roanoke and Southwest Virginia: Blacksburg, Christiansburg, Radford, Roanoke, Salem, Wytheville, Galax, Marion, Abingdon, Bristol and the towns and counties around them.
Can you tell me what repairs a house needs?
We can tell you what we see and what it usually costs to fix. A licensed home inspector still gives you the full report.
