Closing costs are fees associated with finalizing the purchase of your home. These fees are due at closing and includes lender fees, title insurance, escrow fees, and more. Closing costs are separate from your down payment.

What Do I Need to Qualify For a Loan?

I'm Self Employed. Can I Still Qualify For a Loan?

When Is the Best Time to Sell?

What Should I Do to Prepare My Home For Sale?
Decluttering, deep cleaning, and staging can significantly enhance your home's appeal. First impressions are critical, so focus on curb appeal as well.
Can I Sell My Home While Still Living In It?
Yes! Keep your home clean and tidy for showings, and try to be flexible for scheduling.
What Costs Are Involved In Selling a Home?
Common costs include your agent's commission, closing costs , home repairs, and possible concessions to the buyer. Concessions are credits or money given back to the buyer at closing to help with their closing costs.
Do I Need to Make Repairs Before Selling?
While not mandatory, making essential repairs can improve your home's marketability and prevent buyers from negotiating a lower price.
My Home Is In Preforeclosure. Can I Still Sell?
Yes! You remain the owner of the home during the foreclosure process and can still sell. The biggest mistake homeowners make during preforeclosure is assuming that there's no time left to sell. If your home is currently in preforeclosure, book an appointment now to learn what your options are!
