First-Time Buyer 101, Step 2: Know what income you can actually use.

You make $80K. Easy, right? Not always.

Lenders look at qualifying income, which can be different from gross income.

W-2 base salary? Easy.
Bonuses, commissions, overtime? Need a 2-year average.
New job? Different rules.
Self-employed? Whole different ballgame.

The income you THINK you have and the income you can QUALIFY with might not match. Knowing this upfront saves heartbreak later.

First-Time Buyer 101, Step 1: Check your credit. Before you do anything else.

Not to freak out about your score. Not to start applying for stuff. Just to KNOW where you stand.

What to check: your three-bureau report, any errors, anything in collections, and your actual score (the FICO one, not the Credit Karma 'Vantage' score).

You don't need perfect credit to buy. You need accurate credit. There's a big difference.

DM me READY and I'll tell you exactly what your score means for your options.

Everyone obsesses over rate. The number that actually matters? Your monthly payment.

A rate is just one piece of the math. Your payment also includes property taxes, homeowners insurance, sometimes PMI, sometimes HOA.

Two loans with the same rate can have very different monthly payments depending on the property and the loan structure.

When you're shopping, ask for the FULL payment, not just the rate. That's the number you actually live with every month.

DM me READY for a real payment breakdown.

Your score matters, but it's not the whole story. I look at income, debt, and where you're headed financially.
Sometimes a small fix gets you approved. Sometimes we build a 3 to 6 month plan.

Either way, you'll know exactly where you stand.

No judgment. No pressure. Just a real conversation.
DM me to get started.

You do not need a 700 credit score to buy a home.

FHA: 580+. Conventional: 620+. And the score is only part of the picture.

I've closed loans for people at 601 with strong income and minimal debt.

The score is a starting point, not a finish line.

DM me before you assume. Let me look at the actual file.

New Truck Talk 🎬

Everybody wants the lowest monthly payment, and I get it. But here's the thing: the lowest payment isn't always the best deal.

In this one I break down what actually affects your monthly number, why chasing the lowest rate can sometimes cost you more, and what to focus on instead.

Watch the full thing and DM me if you've got questions about your situation.

Your future self will thank you for the moves you make today.

Here are 5 things you can start doing right now to protect your financial future:

Most sellers wait too long to start prepping and it costs them. The ones who win in spring? They started in March. A little effort now = more money at closing.
