Tips of the Trade
Whether you’re buying a home for creating an investment or generational wealth, you may be quite a few steps from enjoying your home purchase.
Here’s Julie’s advice for first-time home buyers looking to embark on the journey to homeownership:
-
Get Pre-Approved! With a pre-approval letter, you’ll be able to submit a stronger offer, experience fewer surprises and stress and how exactly how much home you can afford.
- Working with a lender will guide you in understanding your loan options. There are a variety of loan options and we want you to feel comfortable in making the right decision for you and your family, not only in the present but future.
-
Address your commitment to home-buying with these questions:
- Do I have a stable income?
- Am I ready to commit to this home and city for at least 5 years?
- Do I have an emergency fund that can cover at least 3 months of expenses?
- Think Beyond the Home. Closing costs and fees should not be a surprise! You can expect to pay 2-5% of your total loan amount.
- Lastly, stick with your budget! It’s likely to experience a ton of emotion during the home-buying process. But, don’t let that drive your budget.
Julie’s commitment to providing superior customer service, combined with excellent problem-solving skills, makes the difference in potential borrowers becoming homeowners. Let Julie’s professional talent bring your dreams of home ownership to life!
