DeKalb County is partnering with the Neighborhood Assistance Corporation of America (NACA) to connect residents with affordable homeownership opportunities.

But you DO need to understand your numbers.

Because somewhere along the way, homeownership started looking like this:

Perfect credit.

Two incomes salary.

No debt.

A huge savings account.

And everything financially figured out.

But here’s the conversation you should be having:

Not—

“Do I make enough money to buy a house?”

But—

“What could MY income realistically qualify me to buy?”

There’s a difference. 👀

Lenders look at your overall financial picture.

Things like:

Your income

Your monthly debt obligations

Your credit profile

Your available funds

The price and type of home you’re considering

And one number buyers should especially understand?

Your debt-to-income ratio.

Because making more money doesn’t automatically mean you can afford more house.

If a large portion of your monthly income is already committed to car payments, credit cards, student loans or other debts…

That can affect your purchasing power.

On the flip side?

Someone with a moderate income and manageable monthly debt may be in a stronger position than they assumed.

Your first step isn’t saving favorites on your go to house hunting website.

It’s finding out what YOUR financial picture looks like.

And if you’re not ready yet?

Good information gives you something incredibly valuable:

A target.🎯

Maybe you need to reduce a monthly debt.

Improve an area of your credit profile.

Build your savings.

Or simply understand what price range makes sense.

That’s a PLAN.

And a plan is much more useful than spending another year assuming homeownership isn’t possible for you.

Save this for your future-homeowner era.

When the wishlist is giving HGTV but the pre-approval is giving plot twist.🫠

Know your numbers before you fall in love with the house.

Now before somebody comes for me…

No.

I’m not saying renting is bad.

Sometimes renting is exactly the right move.

But if buying a home is already one of your goals?

This is worth thinking about.

Every month, you make your rent payment.

And then you do it again.

And again.

A year passes.

Then two.

And somewhere along the way you say…

“Maybe next year I’ll look into buying.”

Here’s what I want you to know:

You don’t have to be ready to buy TODAY
to start preparing to buy.

There’s a difference.

If homeownership is something you want in the next 6, 12 or even 18 months, start learning your numbers now.

Not when your lease is 30 days from expiring. 😩

Start with these questions:

What does my credit profile look like?

How much home could my income realistically support?

What debts are affecting my buying power?

What would my TOTAL monthly housing expense look like?

How much should I realistically save before buying?

Because buying a home isn’t just about getting the keys.

It’s about being financially prepared to keep them.

And while homeowners can build equity as they pay down their mortgage and as property values change over time…

Rent payments generally don’t create an ownership interest in the property for the renter.

That doesn’t mean:

“Buy a house immediately.”

It means:

Know your options before another year passes by default.

Especially if owning a home has been sitting on your “one day” list for a little too long.

Your first step doesn’t have to be touring houses.

It can simply be getting educated.

Before you make an offer, don’t just ask, “How much should I offer?”

Ask your REALTOR® these five questions:

1. What do recent comparable sales tell us about the market?

2. What do we know about the level of interest or competition for this property?

3. Is there anything in the seller’s disclosures, property information, or surrounding market that I should consider before moving forward?

4. Beyond the purchase price, what costs should I be prepared for?

5. What offer terms and contingencies should I consider, and when should I seek guidance from another professional?

Buying a home is a team effort. Your REALTOR® helps you navigate the real estate transaction and can help connect you with the appropriate professionals when questions fall outside their scope

What’s one question you wish you had asked before buying your home?

Before we start looking at homes, let’s talk buying power.

One of the best things you can do as a buyer is understand what you’re comfortably qualified to purchase, not just what looks good online.

Pre-approval gives us a starting point. A buyer consultation gives us a strategy.

We’ll talk financing, upfront costs, your must-haves, the buying process, and what makes sense for your budget and goals.

The only thing higher than this view should be your buying power. The view is nice, but the pre-approval is better. 🗝️🗝️
