How buying with me works

We talk goals, budget, timing, neighborhoods, and must-haves.
Know your budget
Get pre-approved so you know your real payment range before you tour.
Search & offer
We find the right homes and write offers built to compete.
Inspect & close
Inspection, appraisal, and closing, with every step explained.
Your agent who also knows loans
Because I'm also a licensed mortgage loan officer, I can explain how different loan programs affect your payment, your cash to close, and your offer strategy. You'll understand the numbers before you fall for a house.
You're always free to choose any lender. Using my mortgage services is never required to work with me as your agent.
Using your VA benefit?
As a Coast Guard veteran, I know how VA loans, entitlement, and PCS timelines work, and how to write offers that sellers take seriously.
Need to tour on a day I'm not available? I'll connect you with a trusted agent so you never miss the right home.
Buyer FAQ
How much do I need for a down payment?
It depends on the loan program, your credit, and the home. Requirements vary widely, and some programs are designed for first-time buyers or veterans. Let's look at your options together.
Should I get pre-approved before I look at homes?
Yes. Pre-approval shows you a realistic price range and payment, and sellers take your offer more seriously when it's attached.
Do I have to sign an agreement with a buyer's agent?
Yes. In Washington, buyers sign a written agreement with their agent that spells out the services provided and how the agent is paid. I'll walk you through it in plain English before you sign.
What other costs should I plan for?
Beyond the down payment, plan for closing costs, inspection, appraisal, and moving. I'll give you an estimate early so nothing catches you off guard.
Can I buy if I'm relocating with PCS orders?
Yes. Many military buyers purchase before they arrive, with video tours and a trusted local team. We'll plan around your report date.
