Step 1: Be aware that there actually are affordable homes available.

You’d be surprised ( or maybe not) by how many people think they cannot find a home within a reasonable budget. I have a system setup to notify me when a great home with a lower price is available.

This is how one of my clients bought a 2 bedroom home in Algiers for just $120,000. The home had a brand new roof and all systems were in good condition. Not brand new, but still had years left before they’d have issues.

Step 2: Is having a chat with me about your down payment options.

I provide my clients with a “lender match.” My network includes the best and most knowledgeable lenders in the business. Every month we chat about what products they have available and how they can save you money.

There are several grants available, some through the parish or state, and others directly from the lenders. Each person has different options that fit their situation. This is why I go over your situation with you and connect you with the lenders who have products made for you.

How affordable is it?
