First-time buyers in Galax

A first-time home buyer in Galax has a real advantage: the city has a mix of older in-town homes and modest houses on smaller lots, and some of them come up at prices that work for a first home. The catch is that older homes can hide expensive problems, and a first home is the worst place to buy a money pit.

How I help

I explain every step before you reach it, in plain words. I learned how to do that as a registered nurse and case manager. And I'll give you a straight opinion on every house. My fix-and-flip experience has helped me identify problem houses, so I'll point out things like an old roof or signs of water, and I'll recommend a professional licensed home inspection.

We'll also look at what living there costs beyond the mortgage, like whether the home is inside the city or the county, and whether it's on public water and sewer.

Your next step

Start with a pre-approval, so you know what you can afford. Then call me and we'll make a plan. The steps are laid out on first-time buyers, and you can get the free first-time buyer's guide.
