What first-time buyers usually ask.
How much do I need for a down payment?
It depends on your loan program — some first-time buyer programs allow as little as 3% down. We'll go over the options together during your free consultation.
What's the difference between pre-qualified and pre-approved?
Pre-qualification is a quick estimate; pre-approval means a lender has verified your finances, so you can make a serious offer.
Do I need my own agent as a buyer?
Yes — having your own representation means someone is working for your interests specifically. I'll walk you through exactly how agent compensation works for your situation before you sign anything.
How long does the process usually take?
From pre-approval to closing, most first-time buyers close in 30–60 days once an offer is accepted — timelines vary by lender and property.
