Deciding on a Lender for your Mortgage

Searching for your home and touring different neighborhoods is the fun part! Figuring out how you’re going to pay for that new dream home…that can get tricky!

 Most of the time, if a transaction is going to go sideways it will be on account of the financing. It’s rare that mortgage lenders make mistakes in the days leading up to your closing (though it can happen). It’s far more likely that an issue no one could have foreseen will pop up, like an old student loan payment marked as delinquent due to a bug in their system. Your dream house hangs in the balance because of someone else’s mistake 8 months ago…

 Almost every home transaction has some bizarre little financial mystery attached to it, which

What should I disclose about my property?     (what is it)?

What is a sellers’ disclosure?

 When someone decides to sell the home they own, they are charged with compiling a list of any conditions or facts about the home that could potentially affect its value now or in the future. The sellers’ disclosure is a list of defects the seller knows about, whether they’ve been fixed/updated or not. A seller usually makes this list available to any potential buyer at the time of closing.

What are HOAs and CDDs?

 Duval, Clay, and St. Johns Counties all have many pre-planned communities that charge the homeowners HOA or CDD fees. These two fees can feel confusing; what is the HOA money used for and what is the CDD money used for? And why do some communities charge both?
