TIPS TO A

SUCCESSFUL 

CLOSING

PROTECT YOUR CREDIT

KNOW YOUR HOME FIT

KNOW YOUR TIMELINE

Once your loan is pre-approved, keep your credit use in check. While buying new furniture may be tempting, your credit rate is verified just before closing.

When researching a home, it's important to consider neighborhood features, resale value, and lifestyle needs. What's missing from your current living situation?

Once an offer is accepted, closing typically takes 45 days. However, you should talk through potential delays and obstacles to ensure you're ready for any scenario.

GET PRE-APPROVED

Meeting with a qualified lender allows you to familiarize yourself with the lending process and find out how much house you'll be able to reasonably afford.

KNOW YOUR OPTIONS

It's important to look at as many homes as needed to feel confident before you buy. Carefully consider your home wants and needs and don't feel rushed into a decision.
