When purchasing a home, it's important to budget for repairs, even if the house looks perfect on the surface. Here's why:

✅ Unexpected Repairs – No matter how thorough the inspection, you may encounter issues after moving in. Older homes, in particular, can have hidden problems such as foundation issues, plumbing or electrical concerns, or roof leaks.

✅ Emergency Fixes – Having a reserve for unforeseen repairs, like a broken water heater or roof damage, can save you from stress and financial strain. Set aside a percentage of your budget for these unexpected but common situations.

✅ Long-Term Maintenance – Beyond repairs, homes require routine maintenance like HVAC servicing, exterior painting, and landscaping, all of which come with a cost. Stay ahead of these needs.

✅ Renovation Costs – If you plan to make improvements or updates to your new home, renovations can add up quickly! Set aside funds for the vision you want to achieve.

Being prepared financially for home repairs ensures that you can take care of your home without disrupting your lifestyle or breaking the bank. Need help estimating potential repair costs? Let’s chat!

You may have heard that you need 20% down to close on a home.. While it does have it's advantages - its not true! You can put down as little as 3.5%.

There are also many First Time Home Buyer Programs, Closing Assistance, Zero Down Payment Options as well (if you qualify) to help you Buy a Home.

Don’t let the myth of the 20% down payment hold you back from owning your dream home.

✨ More flexible guidelines
✨ Custom underwriting
✨ Ideal for unique financial situations

When standard loans say “no,” this may say “yes.”
