Common Questions for First-Time Buyers
We know buying your first home can feel overwhelming. Here are answers to help you find clarity and alignment.
HOW MUCH DO I REALLY NEED FOR A DOWN PAYMENT?
While 20% is the traditional gold standard, many first-time buyers find alignment with loans requiring as little as 3% or 3.5% down. Our goal is to find a financing structure that keeps your monthly flow comfortable and safe.
WHAT IS A PRE-APPROVAL AND WHY IS IT IMPORTANT?
Pre-approval is a lender's formal commitment to fund your loan up to a certain amount. It provides the confidence you need when making an offer, signaling to sellers that you are prepared and supported.
HOW LONG DOES THE CLOSING PROCESS TAKE?
Usually, the window from an accepted offer to holding keys is 30 to 45 days. We manage the timeline meticulously so you can focus on the emotional transition into your new sanctuary.
DO I NEED A REAL ESTATE AGENT AS A BUYER?
Yes. Having a dedicated advocate like Amanda ensures your interests are protected at every turn. In most cases, the seller pays the commission, meaning you get expert guidance and safety at no direct cost to you.
