Common buyer questions

Do I need to sell my current home first? That depends on your financing and available funds, along with timing and risk. Start with our guide to buying before you sell, then discuss your situation with your lender and our team.

How much cash will I need? Your down payment is only one component. Ask your lender and settlement provider for a transaction-specific estimate covering closing costs, prepaid items and any other amounts due.

What should I bring to a first conversation? Your target timing, budget range, locations, must-haves and questions. You do not need to have every answer before we start.

Contact The Heilig Team to make a search plan, or visit our real estate FAQ for more answers. You can also request the downloadable buyer's guide below.
