THINKING ABOUT BUYING? START HERE.
You don’t need to have everything figured out before you call me. But before we start house hunting, here are a few things worth thinking about:
💰 Have you started saving?
Your down payment isn’t the only expense. You may also need funds for inspections, appraisal, closing costs and other upfront expenses.
💳 Do you know where your credit stands?
Don’t count yourself out because your credit isn’t perfect. A good lender can tell you where you stand and what steps, if any, could help.
🏠 What monthly payment feels comfortable?
This matters more than the biggest number you can qualify for. I want you to still like your house after the payment comes out every month. 😉
📋 Have you talked to a lender?
If not, that’s okay. I can connect you with a trusted lender who can explain the numbers and your options.
CHERYL’S TIP: Getting pre-approved doesn’t mean you have to buy tomorrow. It just gives us a much better roadmap.
