Referrals are always appreciated. I will

Much of my business comes from referrals
because I believe in treating my clients the

I always negotiate the highest possible
price for my sellers and the best possible
price for my buyers. Call or text me today

the process. For example, the Ally
Home Team is on hand to help
home buyers through the home
loan experience, from application
to close, ensuring they regularly
answer questions borrowers may
have along the way.
"Service and communications are
the biggest considerations when
it comes to choosing a lender,
whether it's new construction,
buying an existing home, or refi-
nancing," says Beth Foley, broker
associate at Beacon Sotheby's
International Realty.
• Ask your lender what products
fit your needs. For example, Fan-
nie Mae's HomeReady product
may be a good option for first-
time homebuyers and millennials.
Key benefits include down pay-
ments as low as 3 percent, plus
these loans are priced similarly to
standard loan pricing, and flex-
ible sources of funds can be used
for the down payment and closing
costs.
• Establish your limits. Some
lenders provide useful tools to get
you started, such as Ally Home,
a new direct-to-consumer home
loan service offered by Ally Bank,
(www.ally.com). Its Affordability
Calculator helps you analyze your
household income and current
financial obligations to estimate
how much house you can afford.
