BUYING COSTS LESS THAN YOU THINK

Renting has its place, but don’t fool yourself into thinking that owning a home is beyond your reach, or is always more expensive than living in an apartment. Rather than just telling you, we can show you. Take a look!

SHOULD YOU BUY?

Ultimately, this is a question only you can answer. Nobody can make that decision for you. There are a lot of things to consider, like how long you plan to live in the area, However, please don’t believe for one second that renting is always cheaper than buying, or that home ownership is scary, or any other fairy tales apartment salespeople like to spin. Consider your options, and when you are ready, we will be here for you, to guide you every step of the way.

RUN THE NUMBERS

You might be pleasantly surprised at what you could move into, today, for what you are paying in rent.

HOW MUCH HOUSE CAN YOU AFFORD?

This mortgage calculator can be used to figure out monthly payments of a home mortgage loan, based on the home's sale price, the term of the loan desired, buyer's down payment percentage, and the loan's interest rate. This calculator factors in PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) for loans where less than 20% is put as a down payment. Also taken into consideration are the town property taxes, and their effect on the total monthly mortgage payment.

LET US HELP YOU

If buying a house makes sense at this point (financially and otherwise), we work with several lenders every day that are amazing at what they do. They help our clients get financed, and if their credit is less than great, they may be able to help them get it cleaned up. This page is only a very basic overview, of course, and while there is more to the story, that’s where we step in and guide you from start to finish, as we’ve done countless times before. The transition from renting to owning your home can be very simple!
