Congratulations First-time Buyers!

Posted December 28th, 2007 | View Comments

Congratulations to Brandon and Jessica on buying their first home together!

This couple just got a fantastic price on a home in the Foothill Farms area of 95841 with zero down. In fact, when the final net sheet was in, their total out of pocket expenses were a little more than $250. That includes closing costs, appraisal and all other fees. The seller paid everything! The home was an REO which had been priced extremely well and I’m sure the new homeowners will reap the rewards of this excellent decision just five years from today.

I believe the smartest thing these savvy home buyers did was to get a market analysis on the areas they were interested in and then pick one that has shown the best appreciation historically. Also, with Jessica’s detail oriented mind, we were able to coordinate with the title company, lender and everyone else involved perfectly, making this one of the smoothest transactions I have ever done.

If it wasn’t for the lender (with the lending rules changing everyday) this transaction would have been seamless. But all’s well that ends well!
