Buyer's Experience

Buying a home is always an exciting opportunity, whether you’re a first-time buyer or a seasoned veteran. By working with Chris Pigusch, you will have a trustworthy, experienced agent on your side who will devote himself to helping you accomplish your real estate goals. 

Once Chris has assisted you in finding the right home and perfect neighborhood for you and your family, he will work with you from beginning to end to facilitate the pre-approval process, streamline the search process, and negotiate fiercely on your behalf when it comes time to make an offer.

Decide What You Want In a House

With in-depth expertise on the Jackson Hole market and its diverse array of neighborhoods, Chris will ask you a series of questions to help define what you're looking for in a home. This introspective process allows Chris to narrow the search to a specific set of criteria defined by your needs and wants. 

Before you start looking for a home, it's good to think about the things you need in your new home and the things you want. The following is a helpful guide to get you started. 

• Budget –– Establish your budget ahead of time, so you don't inadvertently fall in love with a home that's beyond your financial means or limit yourself to a neighborhood that might not have everything you desire in your dream home.
• Family planning -– If you have kids or are planning to raise a family, consider how many bedrooms and bathrooms you'll need, distance to schools, local parks, and recreation options, and family entertainment.
• Space and privacy –– How much space do you need? Are you interested in a secluded, private residence, or would you prefer to live closer to other people in a community-oriented neighborhood?
• Non-negotiables –– Establish the things that are non-negotiable for you ahead of time. You should have a firm idea in your head of things you "must" have versus those that would be "nice" to have.

Find The Right Jackson Hole Neighborhood

Jackson Hole boasts a diverse range of neighborhoods for all types of lifestyles. Those seeking smaller homes might enjoy purchasing closer to the city, while Teton Village and The Aspens are great places to look for luxury condominiums and ideal for those seeking vacation rentals. 3 Creek and Spring Creek are where you'll find multi-million dollar homes with breathtaking scenic vistas. 

Just ten minutes away from town, 3 Creek Ranch sprawls across a 710-acre private golf and fly fishing community. Outdoor enthusiasts will love the recreation options and privacy or exclusive access to tennis and golf facilities. 

Surrounded by the majestic mountainous backdrop of the Teton Mountains, Jackson Hole is the perfect vacation destination for winter and summer. Whether you're seeking a new residence or mountain retreat, Jackson Hole has a variety of housing options. Here you can find a cozy western ranch or settle down in an exciting residential community with activities and events happening year-round.

Pre-Approval Process

Before starting your search for your dream house or second home, it's essential to undergo the pre-approval process, so you know what your budget and financial limitations are ahead of time. To begin the pre-approval process, Chris can recommend you to a respected local lender or mortgage broker. 

The pre-approval letter is the prerequisite to ensure your offer is taken seriously when you put in a bid for a property. Analyzing your loan limit takes into account everything from your credit score to your income. The pre-approval process generally begins immediately after you meet with an agent to ensure you have enough time to resolve any potential issues that might arise.
