Buyer FAQ

Common questions

Answers to the questions our buyer clients ask most often — from financing basics to closing day logistics.

Answer

Down payments typically range from 3% to 20% of the purchase price depending on loan type. Conventional loans require as little as 3–5%, while jumbo loans for luxury properties often require 20–30%. Our lending partners can walk you through the full range of options for your specific situation.

Answer

Pre-qualification is an informal estimate based on self-reported financial information. Pre-approval is a formal process where a lender verifies your income, assets, and credit — resulting in a conditional commitment letter that carries real weight with sellers.

Answer

From accepted offer to closing, the typical timeline is 30–60 days for a financed purchase. Cash transactions can close in as few as 7–14 days. The search phase varies widely — some buyers find their property in days, others take several months.

Answer

Yes — a buyer's agent represents your interests exclusively, negotiates on your behalf, and is typically compensated by the seller. Without representation, you are negotiating against the seller's agent, who has a fiduciary duty to the seller, not you.

Answer

Buyers typically pay 2–5% of the purchase price in closing costs, including lender fees, title insurance, escrow fees, prepaid taxes, and homeowner's insurance. We provide a detailed estimate early in the process so there are no surprises at the closing table.

Answer

Our brokerage license is issued in Arizona, with brokerage offices in California. If your search takes you outside that footprint, talk to us during your consultation about what's possible.
