A smiling woman and a man holding a large key stand outside a house with a front door and a sign that says 'Sold.' The woman is wearing a black shirt, and the man is wearing a gray T-shirt.

“Ray and his team were able to advocate in my behalf during negotiations, break down step by step of the processes, and assuage all of my uncertainties. There is no doubt that the next home I buy will definitely be from him as I know that I’ll be in great hands.”

Your Questions, Answered

What’s the first step in buying a home?

The first step is to meet with Ray and his lender partner to get pre-approved. This tells you exactly how much you can afford, shows sellers you’re serious, and helps us focus on homes that fit your budget.


How much do I need for a down payment?

It depends on the loan program. Some buyers put as little as 3% down, VA loans can be 0%, and FHA loans start at 3.5%. A larger down payment can lower your monthly payment, but you don’t need 20% saved up to buy a home.


Do I need perfect credit to buy a home?

No. Many programs work with credit scores as low as 580–620. A higher score can qualify you for better rates, but don’t let credit worries stop you — we’ll explore the best options for your situation.
