FAQ
First-time buyer questions.
These answers are informational and a personalized review is needed before choosing a loan path.
Do I have to be a first-time buyer to use buyer programs?+
Not always. Some programs define first-time buyer as someone who has not owned a home in the last three years, while others may be open to repeat buyers depending on the loan type, location, or assistance source.
How much money should I expect to need upfront?+
That depends on the loan program, price range, seller credits, assistance availability, taxes, insurance, and closing costs. A useful first step is estimating both monthly payment and cash to close together.
Can I get pre-approved before choosing a house?+
Yes. In most cases, reviewing your income, credit, assets, and goals before shopping helps you understand your range and gives your agent a stronger starting point.
