What do You want to Purchase?

Get Pre-approved for a Mortgage

This should be your first step in Buying a Home. Why disappoint yourself by looking at Properties for Sale that you unfortunately cannot afford?

You can use our mortgage calculator to get an idea of the monthly payments you will occur.

We have many wonderful Local Lenders for you to work with when Buying a Home.  Feel free to shop your services to two or more Lenders at a time and see who you feel most comfortable working with.

Our recommendation is that you “Go Local” vs. using the Big Banks.  The quality of service, communication, and personal attention to detail is far more enjoyable with our experiences.

Determine Your Price Range

After talking with a Lender or with a Bank, you should now know what price range you are qualified in and can afford.
Important Factors to consider: Taxes & HOA Dues
Determine Your Location, Area of Town, or Subdivision. – We offer a great area to look in our Huntersville Home Search Page.
Huntersville Subdivisions offer many wonderful options to choose from…Each offering something a little different than the other.

  • We offer a Huntersville Map in case you want to look for a Geographical location. Or we also offer an MLS Map Search by Criteria that you will have to navigate around by location, but can be very helpful.
