How much money do you actually need to buy a home? 🤔

It’s one of the most common questions homebuyers have — and the answer isn’t simply “your down payment.”

Depending on your purchase, you may also need to plan for things like:

🏡 Down payment
📝 Closing costs
🔍 Home inspection
💰 Earnest money
🚚 Moving expenses

The good news is that some of these expenses may be offset by assistance programs, seller contributions, or other options, depending on your situation.

Instead of guessing at a savings goal, let’s chat. Together, we’ll put together a plan for what homebuying could actually look like for you.

Don't Let the Fear of a Buyer Backing Out Scare You Away from Selling

What if you finally get an offer on your house... and then the buyer backs out?
It's every seller's nightmare. And with headlines about canceled contracts on the rise, it's a concern worth talking about.

But here's what those headlines aren't telling you: 85–90% of home sales still make it to closing.

And there's more good news. You can actually take steps to protect your sale before your house even hits the market.

According to a Redfin survey, 70% of agents say inspection or repair issues are a reason buyers back out. That's the biggest reason reported, by far.

So, what's one smart move you can make?

Consider getting a pre-listing inspection. It could help you spot potential problems early, decide what to fix, and avoid surprises that might send a buyer running.

And that's just one piece of the puzzle. The right preparation, pricing, and negotiation strategy can make a real difference.

Selling your house doesn't have to feel like a gamble. A little preparation can give you a much stronger start.

Thinking about selling? Send me a message, and let's talk about how to set your sale up for success.

To Sell or Rent? How To Choose the Best Path for Your House.

Renting can be a good fit for the right person with the right house, but it isn’t the only option. A smart sales strategy can help your house stand out to buyers from day one.

So, if you’re on the fence, let’s sit down and compare what selling and renting would each look like for you.

Selling your house is a big step, and you want it to go smoothly. And with houses taking a little longer to sell these days, renting it out might start to sound like a nice backup plan.

Think you need 20% down to buy a home? You may have more options than you realize.

Down payment assistance programs can help eligible homebuyers cover part of their down payment — and, in some cases, closing costs. Assistance may be available as a grant, forgivable loan, deferred-payment loan, or low-interest second mortgage.

Eligibility and program availability vary based on factors such as location, income, credit, and the property.

Want to buy now without feeling the full weight of today’s interest rates on your mortgage payment right away? A temporary buydown could help.

With a temporary buydown, your interest rate is reduced for the first 1–3 years — lowering your initial monthly payments and giving you time to ease into the full payment.

And if a seller-paid buydown isn’t an option, Waterstone Mortgage Smart Start offers a lender-paid alternative.
