If you are going to sell or buy a house, there is no better professional than Jamie Walker. Of course there are many realtors that can show you a home, handle contracts, closings, and the mechanics of the buy or sell transaction. But buying or selling your home can be stressful, complicated and even anxiety ridden even under the best of circumstances. That's why you need Jamie as your realtor. When I sold my home last month, Jamie went above and beyond expectations. She walked beside me every step of the journey -- coaching, advising, calming, and even jumping in to help when she knew I was overwhelmed. In terms of marketing my home to achieve the highest possible offers, she was a PRO! I still can't believe how high a price I was able to get and it was all due to her guidance and investing far less than I thought I would need to in all the right places. I received a nearly full price offer as a result of the very first showing! I've bought and sold homes before and I can tell you that the service, expertise and professionalism that Jamie brought are unparalleled! You will not believe the difference having her as your realtor will make in both your experience and to your wallet!

ZillowVERIFIEDJamie went well beyond our expectations and kept in touch with us daily. She provided us with many helpful suggestions and ran errands that many other realtors would not have done. We cannot praise her enough or thank her enough.

ZillowVERIFIEDJamie is - hands down - the best realtor Ive ever met. We encountered almost every strange edge case scenario possible before closing on my perfect home, and Jamie not only took the time to understand the details I wanted to find, she also deftly navigated the ups and downs as we took on a fluctuating market. It felt like teamwork the entire time, and I look forward to keeping in touch!

ZillowVERIFIEDGreat communication. Very hard working for you and your dollar. Made a stressful experience very easy and helped provide more great references thru my process of buying my home to help me and make everything easy as possible. Even followed up with me after buying my home. Its comforting to see someone who is so passionate.
Answered Questions
The first thing you must do is speak to your lender. It is imperative that you know how much you can spend based upon not only what you can afford, but what you are comfortable with allocating to housing expenses on a monthly basis. This way, when you are home shopping you can stay on budget. Additionally, many lenders can assist first-time home buyers in qualifying for programs/grants that may benefit you.
Ezekial, While 20% downpayment is customary on a conventional loan, there are other loans & programs available to borrowers that have substantially lower downpayment requirements. If you are a veteran, a VA loan may lend 100%, and FHA loan generally requires a 5% downpayment. There are also a lot of great programs for first-time home buyers; some states even have grants that do not need to be paid back. Make sure to discuss with your lender to see what options are available to you!
Yes! Both the buyer and seller pay for title insurance at closing, but each type is slightly different. The seller pays for the title insurance coverage for the buyer, and the buyer pays for the title insurance policy for their lender. A lender's title policy is designed to protect the financial institution providing your mortgage from title claims that would put their stake in your home at risk. Lenders almost always require borrowers to purchase title insurance on the lender's behalf as part of the loan-approval process. It's considered a closing cost.
