How much do I need for a down payment?
It depends on the loan type. Conventional loans can start as low as 3% down, FHA loans at 3.5%, and VA loans may require zero down for eligible veterans. I’ll help you understand which programs you qualify for and what fits your financial picture.
What credit score do I need to buy a home?
Many loan programs accept scores as low as 580, though a score of 620 or higher opens up more options and better rates. If your score needs work, I can point you in the right direction before you apply.
How long does the mortgage process take?
From application to closing, most loans take 30 to 45 days. Timelines can vary based on property type and loan program. I keep you informed at every stage so there are no surprises.
Should I get pre-approved before house hunting?
Absolutely. Pre-approval shows sellers you’re a serious, qualified buyer — and in a competitive SoCal market, it can make the difference between landing your dream home and losing it. It also helps you set a realistic budget.
When does refinancing make sense?
Refinancing is worth exploring if rates have dropped since your original loan, your credit score has improved, or you want to change your loan term. I’ll run the numbers so you can see exactly when you’d break even and start saving.
What are closing costs, and how much should I expect?
Closing costs typically range from 2% to 5% of the loan amount and include fees for the appraisal, title insurance, and lender services. I provide a clear breakdown early in the process so you can plan confidently — no surprises at the closing table.
