Buying Your First Home

Hello! Whether you are buying your first home or you're a real estate professional helping someone buy their first home, I hope you will find this information useful. I'm including some financial strategies and information you may find helpful on your journey to buying your first home. NOTE: Mortgage rates quoted in scenarios are for education purposes only and are expired. Please contact me for current mortgage rates based on your personal scenario or click here.

Please review the examples I have prepared for you. I would love to answer your questions and help you create a plan to finance your home -- even if you believe that buying a home is a few years away!

There are many programs available, including mortgages featuring low down payments. Here are just a few strategies (note rates are expired):

Understanding the Numbers. This report shows some minimum down payment scenarios that are available for home buyers. You don't need to have a 20% down payment to buy a home!

Rent vs. Owning Your Home. This report compares renting to buying a home with real numbers. Click here for a Rent vs Own Report.

How to Create Affordable Housing. This report shows different strategies to help reduce mortgage payments.

Should You Wait or Buy Now? Last but not least, this report addresses if you should wait for possibly lower home prices or interest rates; or if you should buy now.

By the way, I am happy to prepare scenarios for you using YOUR information. My goal is to help people make informed decisions about their mortgages and finances.

What's next? I would love to answer your questions and help you create a plan for the financing of your next home. There are many programs available, including some offering down payment assistance.
