Lets keep it short, sweet, and simple!
Tired of renting and want to finally pull the trigger on being a homeowner, you’re in the right place. Here, I’ll give you quick and to -the -point tips, and directions.
First thing’s first, what can you afford on a monthly basis and what is your estimated budget? Do you have at least 3-5% t minimum to cover a mortgage + 2.5% +/- closing cost?
Second, what are you looking for? e.g., home, condo, townhouse, manufactured home, fixer, etc?
Be ahead by securing a Certified Pre-Approval and a Buyer Representation Agreement signed.
Are you a Veteran? You have access to the VA and CalVet loan program. These loans are also eligible for 1-4 Unit dwellings.
Have a big family but can’t afford a house or a condo? Consider a Manufactured Home. You have many of the same benefits as being a homeowner, you’ll be able get a Manufactured Home with as little as 5% down, and some Manufactured Home communities include additional amenities such as pool, hot tub, off-street parking, community center, roving private security patrols, and more.
