How It Works
What each one takes
Buying
Get pre-approved and settle your must-haves. Then tour with someone who’ll tell you what a home is really worth instead of just opening the door.
Selling
Price against real comparable sales, prepare the property properly, market it hard and negotiate with the evidence on your side.
Investing
Know the rental restrictions, seasonal swing, insurance and carrying costs before you buy. Not after the first quarter.
