What’s the difference between an FHA and a conventional loan? 🤔💰
If you’re thinking about buying a home in Florida, knowing your financing options is 🔑

🏡 FHA Loan:

📌Backed by the government

📌Lower credit score requirements

📌As low as 3.5% down

📌Great for first-time buyers

🏡 Conventional Loan:

📌Not government-backed

📌Higher credit score needed

📌Usually 5–20% down

📌Often fewer fees long-term

The right choice depends on your budget, credit history, and goals as a buyer 💡

💬 Thinking of buying soon? I can help you connect with trusted lenders and explore your best options!

First-time buyer? Here’s what you really need to know 🏡🔑

Buying your first home is exciting—but let’s be real, it can also feel overwhelming.

So here’s a quick breakdown to help you walk in confidently instead of confused:

✅ Get pre-approved before you fall in love with a home. This tells you how much home you can actually afford—and strengthens your offer.

✅ Know your must-haves vs. nice-to-haves. Trust me, no home checks 100% of the boxes, but the right one will check the ones that matter most.

✅ Work with an agent who’s local, responsive, and real. This isn’t just a transaction—it’s the start of a major life chapter.

✅ Factor in more than the mortgage. Taxes, insurance, HOA fees, maintenance—these all matter.

✅ Be ready to move fast. The Florida market stays competitive, and waiting too long can mean missing out.

🏡 Buying your first home should feel exciting—not stressful. That’s where I come in.

📲 DM me with your biggest homebuying questions or to start your journey—I'm here to guide you every step of the way.
