Whether you're a first-time home buyer, looking to trade up, deciding to downsize, or simply wishing for a change, I can help you before you ever make an offer on a property. I take the time to sit down with you and look over your budget, income and savings, helping you get a clear picture of what type and amount of loan is realistic. There are many factors to consider when getting a home loan; interest rates are only one element of the complete package.
I can help you consider all your options so you can concentrate on making the best decision for your needs. The financial aspects of home buying can be stressful and overwhelming-but they don't have to be, not with a trained and caring professional like myself in your corner. Finding a great home loan involves careful consideration of your needs, finances and history.
We are here to guide you. We have worked with Matthew Barba multiple times and have had a great experience each time. Matt and the team guided us through the entire mortgage and loan process, answering all questions along the way.
