#22: Closing on a house! | First time home buyer edition


first-time homebuyer tips

Closing on a house is no easy feat. I thought it was as simple as signing papers and getting the keys. But no, my lender and my builder had surprises for me chile.


On the lender side, my final closing disclosure had an amount higher than what was quoted. And I was so confused because I’m closing late because of YALL. Not me. Da heck.


On the builders’ side, they didn’t want my agent present during my initial and final walkthrough. This was not communicated beforehand, but they ultimately agreed to let her stay but she couldn’t ask questions/provide insight to me.


Watch my latest youtube video where I discuss how I handled these two different situations. This is part 1 of a 3 part series and I think you’ll love it!
