There's a question I hear a lot, usually with an apology attached: "Sorry, this might be a dumb question, but..."
It's never a dumb question. And you never need to apologize for asking one.
Is this a good time to buy? Can I afford this payment? What even is escrow? Every single one is worth asking, and the answer is part of your plan, not a detour from it.
Nobody hands you a script when you start this process. You're expected to make one of the biggest financial decisions of your life while learning the language as you go. Feeling unsure about some of it isn't a flaw. It's the honest starting point for everyone.
So ask. Early, often, and before you've talked yourself out of it. My job isn't to push people into homes. My job is to help them make good decisions, and good decisions start with real answers.
You don't need all the answers. Just direction. We'll take it step by step.
