FINDING THE RIGHT HOME
Buyer questionnaire
Let’s find your latitude.
Find Your Latitude. Find Home.
A few quick questions so I can hunt smarter for you — the right homes, in the right places, at the right payment. About 2 minutes, and I personally read every answer.
Step 1 of 10 · Who’s buying
First — who am I house-hunting for?
Names first. Everything else gets easier from here.
Start with the basics — 20 seconds.Quick one — I just need a name so I know who I’m talking to.
First time buying a home?
How long have you been looking?
Step 2 of 10 · Where you are now
What’s home base right now?
Renting or owning changes the game plan — timing, contingencies, all of it.
No judgment, just logistics.Do you rent or own?
What’s your monthly rent?
Spin the drums to your rent — each digit rolls on its own. Ballpark is fine.
Month-to-month, or on a lease?
Must you finish the lease before buying?
Must you sell your current home before buying?
If selling is part of the plan, we’ll map both moves so you’re never stuck between homes.
Step 3 of 10 · Where to
Where are we hunting?
Cities, ZIP codes, cross streets, a school district you love — as specific or as loose as you’ve got.
Dream big here. We’ll reality-check together later.Secondary locations you’re open to — this is where the hidden gems usually hide.
Step 4 of 10 · The home
What kind of home are we picturing?
Tap everything that fits — you can pick more than one type.
Pick all that fit. No overthinking.Type of home
Are HOAs okay?
Pick the home type and the HOA answer and I’ll move you along automatically.
Step 5 of 10 · Must-haves
The shape of the place
Beds, baths, space to spread out. This is the filter I run every listing through.
Halfway there — and this is the fun part.Bedrooms
Spin the wheel — drag it, scroll it, or tap a number.
Bathrooms
Ideal living square footage
Tap See the size next to any range for a bird’s-eye floor plan — furniture and people drawn to scale.
Approx. square footage, bedrooms and baths where you live now.
Single story or two?
Pool?
Ideal garage size
Real talk: many older homes in Sacramento’s urban core don’t have garages at all — worth knowing before we fall for one.
Backyard — what fits your life?
Think in weekends, not measurements. Tap the i to see each yard from above, to scale.
Storage for an RV, boat, or hobby vehicles — important?
Yard, fencing, and floor types matter more with four-legged family.
Step 6 of 10 · The trade-off
Every home is a trade-off. Pick yours.
This one answer quietly steers half my search.
There are no wrong answers — only trade-offs.What matters more?
“Dreamy,” but real. The version that could actually exist in Sacramento at your number.
Deal-makers, deal-breakers, and anything special I should know.
An address, a listing link, or just what you loved about it — near-misses teach me a lot.
Step 7 of 10 · Timing
How fast could this happen?
Answer both and I’ll move you along — no form fatigue, promise.
Honest answers = smarter hunting.If we found your dream home today, could you write an offer today-ish?
In a perfect world, when are you holding the keys?
Step 8 of 10 · The money
Let’s talk numbers — gently.
So I search in the right lane. Nothing here locks you in — ballparks are perfect.
Round numbers welcome. This stays between us.What price range have you been considering?
The number that lets you sleep well — often more useful than a max price.
Step 9 of 10 · Working together
How do we work best together?
Almost there — this is how I make sure I actually earn the job.
So I work the way you like to work.Partner, parent, a very opinionated friend — all welcome at the table.
Preferred way to reach you?
Quick favor — these three I do need. A few words each is plenty.
Step 10 of 10 · Last step
Where do I send the good stuff?
Your first matches, showing invites, and the homes that fit before they hit everyone’s feed.
Last step — then I’m on it.That email looks off — mind double-checking it? It’s where your first matches land.
Goes straight to Pablo. No list, no robo-calls, no spam — ever.
You’re in
That’s it — nicely done.
Here’s what happens next:
Every word — no assistant, no algorithm skimming your answers.
Homes that fit your latitude, including the ones about to hit the market.
At your preferred time, by your preferred method — with homes worth your Saturday.
