Sara Huffman - Real Broker, LLC I'm a Broker Associate with Real serving DFW with my team member, Shelby Harveaux. Excited to provide concierge level services ro our clients!

I have a passion for building relationships with my clients and walking with them on their path to homeownership. I worked in the Front Office of great hotel brands such as The Ritz-Carlton and Marriott where I learned about excellent service and communication. My interest in all things real estate began in 2005 when my father bought a three-bedroom two-bathroom home that needed to be completely u

pdated. He taught me how to renovate a home and inspired me to continue investing in real estate, buying my first condominium in 2010. I fixed the condo up and sold it in 2012. I then purchased a duplex to fix up and rent out. My experience buying and selling property was not always great and I realized that there was a level of customer service lacking in the real estate industry. In 2016 I sold my duplex and joined my father at Coldwell Banker, Apex taking my passion for helping people fulfill their real estate dreams to the next level. I go above and beyond to exceed my clients’ expectations and help them navigate their real estate experience. It would be my pleasure to help you achieve your goals whether you are buying your first home, upgrading, downsizing or investing! Credentials and Memberships

Looking for flexibility in your financing? A conventional loan might be your perfect match. 🤝

Conventional loans are the most common type of mortgage out there. Because they aren't backed by the federal government, they have slightly stricter guidelines, but they offer incredible flexibility for the right buyer.

The Highlights:

Down Payments: You don’t need a massive 20% down payment! Qualified buyers can put down as little as 3%.

Property Flexibility: Can be used for a primary residence, a vacation home, or an investment property.

Drop the PMI: If you do put less than 20% down, you will have to pay Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI)—but unlike some other loans, this automatically drops off once you hit 20% equity in your home. 📈

If you have a strong credit score and a down payment ready to go, a conventional loan is often the cleanest path to homeownership.

Undergoing a home inspection can feel a little nerve-wracking. After all, nobody wants to find out their dream home has a laundry list of issues!

But here is the real estate secret: Every house has an inspection report. Even brand-new construction homes have little things that need to be tweaked.

The goal of an inspection isn’t to find a "perfect" house—it’s to make sure you have complete clarity. It turns an emotional purchase into an educated business decision. Once we get the report back, we can prioritize what matters:

Major safety hazards? We negotiate.


Structural or mechanical failures? We negotiate.

Minor cosmetic wear and tear? We add it to your future weekend to-do list.

Knowledge is power, especially when it comes to your future home. 🤝

Think a less-than-perfect credit score means you can't buy a home? Think again. 🤫

If you’re saving up for your first home and finding it tough to build up a huge down payment or hit a perfect credit score, an FHA loan might be your golden ticket.

Insured by the Federal Housing Administration, these loans are designed to make homeownership accessible to more people.

The Highlights:

Low Down Payment: You can put down as little as 3.5%.

Credit Score Friendly: Lenders are often able to approve FHA loans for buyers with credit scores in the 500s.

Gift Funds Allowed: Your down payment can come entirely from a gift from a family member. 🎁

Keep in mind: FHA loans do require mortgage insurance for the life of the loan, but they are a fantastic tool to get your foot in the door of homeownership sooner rather than later. 🏡

When you tour an open house, you’re looking at the layout. When an inspector walks through, they are looking for red flags. Here are three crucial areas they dive into:

The Electrical Panel: They check if the wiring is safe, updated, and capable of handling modern appliances (no DIY fire hazards allowed).

The Grade of the Yard: They look at how the ground slopes around the house. If the dirt slopes toward the foundation instead of away, a rainy day could mean a flooded basement.

The HVAC System: They test the heating and cooling systems to ensure they aren't just running, but actually operating efficiently and safely.

Spending a few hundred dollars on an inspection can save you tens of thousands of dollars in unexpected repairs later.

If you have served or are currently serving in the US Armed Forces, the VA loan program is one of the most powerful financial benefits available to you. Backed by the Department of Veterans Affairs, it removes the biggest hurdles to buying a home.

The True Perks:

0% Down Payment: You can buy a home with absolutely zero money down.

No Monthly Mortgage Insurance: Unlike conventional or FHA loans, there is no monthly PMI requirement, saving you hundreds every single month.

Competitive Rates: VA loans consistently offer some of the lowest interest rates on the market. 📉

If you love the idea of suburban or rural living, you need to know about the USDA loan (backed by the US Department of Agriculture).

This program is designed to encourage homeownership in developing communities, and "rural" might mean closer to town than you think—many thriving suburban pockets and small towns fully qualify!

The Highlights:

Zero Down Payment: Just like a VA loan, you can get 100% financing.

Lower Monthly Fees: The mortgage insurance costs are typically lower than what you’d find on an FHA loan.

Affordable Terms: Designed specifically for low-to-moderate-income buyers to make monthly payments incredibly manageable.

The property just has to be located in a USDA-eligible zone, and your household income must fall within the area's limits.
