Questions Deb hears most

Ask your own question →
How much do I need for a down payment?

It depends on the loan. Some programs allow as little as 3–3.5% down, and VA or USDA loans may require none. A lender can walk you through options. Deb can introduce you.

Should I get pre-approved before looking at homes?

Yes. Pre-approval tells you your real budget and shows sellers you are ready, which matters in a competitive market.

What are closing costs?

Fees for the loan, title, taxes, and insurance due at closing, often around 2–5% of the purchase price. Deb will help you estimate them early.

How long does it take to buy a home?

Once your offer is accepted, closing typically takes 30–45 days. The search itself can take a few weeks to a few months.

Which school district is right for me?

Seneca Valley, North Allegheny, Mars Area, and Pine-Richland all serve the area. Deb can show you which homes fall into each.

She quickly found me other houses to look at and I found another one even better than the first.
