Check with your loan officer to see what interest rate you will be offered.  It depends on your credit score.  If you need to work on your score to bring it up they can help you with that.

We will provide you with a net proceeds when you request a home valuation.  This shows you the expenses to sell.  This will be updated when an offer comes in and we know all the terms so you can make a good decision.

If you are thinking about buying a home get all your financial information together, and get it to your loan officer, so they can put you through underwriting so you can get approved before even looking at homes.  You will know that you qualify for the homes that you are looking at,  and the seller will not worry about accepting your offer knowing that you have already gone through the process.  As long as the home appraises out and title work is done it will close.  Waiting until a week before closing to find out you are approved is crazy.

You can click on anything that is underlined here to go to the site for the information.  If there is other information that you are looking for please let us know so we can point you in the right direction.

Check with your loan officer to see what interest rate they will be offering you.  It depends on your credit score.  If you need to improve your score they can help you.

Some lenders are offering to put you through underwriting when you start the process of wanting to buy a home.  Get then all your financial information.  This takes out all the guess work so you and a seller know that you are approved for a loan up to a certain price.  If the home inspection goes well and the appraisal comes in at the contract price you are set to go and can close soon.  Home inspections are not cheap.  Why not get approved so you don’t have to worry that you are spending money on it when you don’t know if you will get approved.

Request a home valuation to see what your home is worth in today’s market.  Tell us a little bit about your home and what has recently been updated.  We will provide you with a net proceeds that shows you an estimate of what it will cost to sell your home.  This will be updated when an offer comes in and we know all the terms.

You can set up an email alert so you will receive listings as soon as they hit the market.
