First Step
The first step when looking to buy a home is getting qualified for a loan.
- Before doing anything else you need to know what you can afford by getting qualified for a loan
- Don’t go house hunting before going mortgage shopping
Pre-Qualification
- Pre-Qualification is not a true approval but the initial step in a home loan process where you discuss your financial situation with a loan officer - nothing is verified
- Pre- Approval is where the buyer provides the lender with the necessary documents to tell them what they are approved for, which loan option is the best for them and what the interest rate will be
Once you find your dream home, we need to make sure you get to move into it.
- Don’t change jobs; becoming self employed or quit current job
- Don’t buy a vehicles
-
Don’t use any charged cards or let your accounts fall behind
-
Don’t spend money you saved for closing
-
Don’t omit any debt or liabilities from your loan application
- Pro: Your wealth can increase as you build equity in your home through 2023 averaging about 3%
- Con: Maintenance costs; work and money to keep a home in good condition
- There are various loans and grants to qualify to purchase a home
- Make sure you offered a competitive price on a home
- Put down a larger earnest money deposit
- Let the seller know that you have not written offers on any other properties
Once your offer has been accepted, it's time to open up escrow.
- It's time to get inspections done on the home, review disclosures, secure the loan, and get the appraisal done

"My father in law passed and we needed to sell his house. We met with three different agents and we quickly decided to go with Krista. Krista and her team are very knowledgeable, energetic and at the top of their game. Everything was spot on."
"Krista and her team were excellent. We bought a home while on vacation. We relied on her staff to not only view the house but she positioned us so well, that we followed her advice and we got the house for the price we wanted. Thank you!
