First Time Home Buyers

Welcome > For Buyers > First Time Homebuyers ...

Buying Your First Home? OUR FAVORITE!!...Let us be Your Professional Guide! 

You might be a bit afraid or intimidated by the whole process of buying your first home. Short Sales, Foreclosures, Incentives, Down Payment Assistance, Special Financing...where do you start? As Reno, Sparks and Lake Tahoe Real Estate experts, it's our job to guide you, from beginning to end. 

We will take the time to go through each and every step of the buying process. There are no dumb questions! 

Together, we will consider: 

- How much can you really afford? 

- How to qualify for a mortgage. If you don't qualify now, we can help you get to where you need to be. 

- How much cash you should put down? 

- How to buy a home with little or nothing down. Is there a down payment assistance program just for me? 

- What it takes to get approved for financing? What banks and other financial institutions are looking for? What kind of documentation do I need? 

- How much your payments will be? 

- Is renting or buying better for you? 

Tell us a bit about your situation below. We'll get right back to you. There is absolutely no charge, and we offer this to you with no strings attached. 

New to the home buying process? Tell us your concerns. Ask us questions. It's our job to help! There's no obligation, and we promise to get back to you quickly...

Real Estate Tips

Real Estate Contracts >Clean Contracts

"Clean" is a term that is often used to describe an offer on a house. A "clean" offer does not refer to the price of the house, but to the terms of the agreement. If you really want a particular house, the "cleaner" you can make your offer, the better.

What are the characteristics of a clean contract? A contract is considered "clean" when the buyers are paying cash or are clearly qualified for a mortgage, the sale isn't contingent on the sale of another home, the buyers don't ask the sellers to carry any of the financing, and if the closing date coincides with the sellers' needs. A clean contract doesn't have any unusual requests for repairs or insistence that certain articles convey that would not ordinarily stay in the house. A clean offer has an important competitive edge if you are offering less than full price or if you are in a situation where there is more than one offer on the property.
