Where do I begin?Buying a home for the first time can be very confusing. Do you just start looking for a home? Where do I find homes for sale? How much can I afford? How much will the payments be so I know much I can afford to spend on a new home? Can I get a better buy on a home that is bank owned or one that is a "fixer upper"? These are some common questions from first time home buyers. This site will help navigate you step by step towards home ownership and educated you all along the way to make your home buying experience fun and exciting!!

Do I need a Down Payment?The most common question from first time home buyers and current renters is about the down payment they will need to purchase a new home. 30 years ago you needed a large down payment to buy a home. Nowadays there are many government loan programs available to first time home buyers with either low down payment options or NO down payment options. There is no excuse why anyone that is currently renting should not be looking at buying their first home. Rates are low, home prices are low and financing is EASY! Why throw away money in rent each month when you could be putting your money to equity in your own home AND enjoying the tax benefits from owning your home each year!
