Frequently Asked Questions

Our Mortgage Consultants are here to help guide you through the process, but in the meantime, check out the answers below to some of our Frequently Asked Questions.

How do I buy a home in Northeastern Ohio?

Buying a home in North Eastern Ohio starts by having a conversation with someone from our team. We highly recommend getting pre-qualified for your loan before you start house hunting. Taking this step will help you understand your real budget and narrow down your home search results.

What are the best mortgage loan programs for Northeastern Ohio?

Mortgage loan options are about more than just location. Sure, location can play a part in what loans you’re eligible for, but, more than that, it’s your finances, the home you’re looking for, and your unique situation. That’s why we take the time to get to know homebuyers before making any recommendations about home loans.

How long does the Northeastern Ohio home buying process take?

There’s a lot of stigma about how long the home buying process takes. In some cases, it might take months, but we can help you close on your home in two weeks, depending on the loan program. If you’re committed to communication and are responsible, then we can work together to move you through the process faster.

How much does it cost to purchase a home in Northeastern Ohio?

The cost of a home comes down to several factors, but, ultimately, it’s about what you’re looking for in a future home. As a mortgage provider, we’re able to offer home loan programs designed specifically for your needs throughout the state of Ohio and in several other states.

How much do I need for a down payment in Northeastern Ohio?

The amount you need for your down payment comes down to the loan program you’re using to purchase your home. In most cases you’ll need 0-5% to purchase a home. Ultimately, your down payment amount is about your end goals, the type of home you want to purchase, and your current situation.

I want to purchase a home in Northeastern Ohio, where should I start?

A short conversation with our team is the best place to start the process. We’ll help you build a custom plan that ends up at the closing table. Our team will help you build a real budget, get you pre-approved for your loan, and help in any way we can during the house-hunting process.

What if I want to purchase a home outside of Northeastern Ohio?

Absolutely! Since we’re licensed in Ohio, Alabama, Florida, Indiana, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Michigan, and Virginia we can help you purchase a new home anywhere in those states.
