Dreaming of owning your first home? Tired of paying someone else’s mortgage? Changing from renter to homeowner may be easier than you think. We're here to help.

Where do you start?

First of all, learn the financing basics. Get pre-approved and become a smart shopper.

When you buy your first home, making monthly payments probably won't be a problem. After all, you're already paying rent to your landlord each month. It's coming up with the lump sum needed for a down payment that may seem impossible. Fortunately, there are options to make buying your first home a happy reality.

Programs for first-time buyers.

There are local and federal government first-time homebuyer programs that can help you get into your own home. Ask us about these options.

Need financial solutions?

Credit or tax problems.

Do you have problems with your credit rating or owe money in taxes? Buying your first home is still a possibility. Check with your lending institution about options, such as paying a higher down payment. If necessary, contact a financial advisor or tax resolution service.
