Common Questions
Buyer FAQ
How much do I need for a down payment?
Down payments vary by loan type. Conventional loans typically require 3–20%, FHA loans as low as 3.5%, and VA/USDA loans may require zero down. We'll connect you with lenders who can walk you through your best options.
How long does the buying process take?
From pre-approval to closing, most transactions take 30–60 days. The search phase varies — some clients find their home in days, others take a few months. We work at your pace.
Do I pay the buyer's agent commission?
Buyer's agent commission is negotiable and will be clearly outlined in your Buyer Representation Agreement before we begin working together. In many transactions, the seller may offer to cover all or a portion of the buyer's agent commission — but this is not guaranteed and varies by deal. We'll be fully transparent about all costs upfront so there are no surprises.
What areas of Atlanta do you serve?
We serve the entire Atlanta metro area including Buckhead, Midtown, Decatur, Sandy Springs, Alpharetta, Marietta, Smyrna, and surrounding communities.
