Rent Vs. Buy And Things You Should Know
What Are Some Costs Associated With Owning A Home I Should Be Aware Of?
As a homeowner, you pay for everything associated with your new home. Everything from utilities to anything that breaks. It’s impossible to estimate what that might look like, but when it comes to repairs, you should always have an emergency fund to get things fixed.
What Are The Tax Benefits A Homeowner Gets?
The best thing to do is to ask a tax professional. There are numerous tax benefits to owning a home; however, there are a lot of variables involved, and the best person to discuss this with is a tax professional.
Can I Buy A Home With My Roommate?
Sure, not a problem.
Do I Need A Down Payment?
Yes, usually. In some cases, loan applicants can buy a home without a down payment. However, most people have to put at least 3.00% down (that’s 3.00% of the purchase price).
Are There Special First-Time Homebuyer Programs?
We have loan programs designed to help first-time homebuyers. They offer easy qualification and low down payment options.
