About 1 in 5 homes for sale got a price cut in September, the most for that month since 2018 (Realtor.com). That gives buyers room to negotiate.

A lower price is one option. A seller credit is another: the seller puts money toward your closing costs, or toward buying down your rate. Which one helps more depends on your loan and your plans.

Writing an offer soon? Call us at (818) 837-6600 and we'll run both numbers before you sign.

Fresh out of college. Already a homeowner.

Kadar Waller finished his master's and bought a home. That order, that fast.

A lot of new grads assume homeownership is a someday thing β€” rent for a few years, wait until the student loans calm down, revisit it later. So they never ask the question. Kadar asked. Nancy Mendoza went through his file, found the loan that actually fit him, and stayed on it all the way to closing.

Here's what he said about it, in his own words:

"Ms. Nancy Mendoza is my loan officer and she is great. She helped me get my home fresh out of college after graduating with my master's. She's highly recommended."

Congratulations, Kadar. πŸ‘πŸŽ“

Just finished school and wondering whether buying is even on the table for you? That's one phone call, not a five-year plan. Call us at (818) 837-6600 and ask for Nancy.
