Start with the information you already have.

The checklist arrives by email. Complete your plan with Sully in the 20-minute session.

  • Your starting point
  • Your next 3 steps
  • What to prepare next

Why is it free? My compensation as your agent is agreed in writing in your Buyer Representation Agreement before we tour homes — we review it together and terms vary by transaction.

Your situation determines the next step.

Tell us when you'd like to buy.

That timing helps us prepare the conversation and agree on your next steps.

I get it

Is one of these your question?

  • How much do I need before I start?

    Down payment, closing costs and a reserve: you want to know what to prepare for your case, not the internet's generic advice.

  • What will a lender ask me for?

    You want to show up with the paperwork ready, not discover it at the appointment.

  • Now or next year?

    You want to know what to get ahead on today, based on when you'd like to buy.

  • What monthly payment can I carry?

    One that doesn't drown you, with taxes, insurance and HOA included.

  • And in what order does it all go?

    From pre-approval to keys: who does what, and when.

    We start with the one that matters most to you.

Your questions

General advice doesn't answer every question about your situation.

Before searching for a home, you may have questions like these:

Which expenses should I prepare for?
Which documents will a lender need?
What can I do now if I want to buy later?

During the session, we organize your questions and distinguish what you can prepare from what a lender needs to evaluate.

A starting point for you

We review your situation and agree on what to do next.

In English or Spanish, using the information available and the questions still open.

That's how your homebuying plan begins.

What you get at no cost today

What's included in your homebuying plan

The checklist helps you understand the process. In the 20-minute session, we apply it to your situation and agree on your next steps.

Your comfortable monthly payment

We look together at an approximate monthly payment you can carry without drowning.

The formal mortgage qualification is done by a licensed lender.

Your complete route in 5 steps

A 20-point checklist in 5 steps (2-page PDF): credit, savings, documents, pre-approval and your search. It lands in your inbox when you submit the form, so you can use it before your session.

In your session, we mark together the steps that apply to you.

Lenders who actually explain things well

If it makes sense, I suggest 1–2 lenders.

They regularly work with buyers in Texas.

I receive no compensation for referring you.

The whole Plan is at no cost

The session, the checklist and the lender intro.

My compensation as your agent is agreed in writing in your Buyer Representation Agreement before we tour homes — we review it together and terms vary by transaction.

Your 20-min session

What we do in the 20-minute session

  1. 1

    Review your starting point

    We discuss your timing and what you already know about savings, income, and expenses.

    You can tell us which figures you're still unsure about.

  2. 2

    Identify what still needs preparation

    We organize your questions and review what to gather before speaking with a lender.

    Timing and options depend on your situation.

    The formal loan qualification is done by the lender, not by me.

  3. 3

    Agree on your next 3 steps

    We write down what to prepare or review next.

    If you'd like to work with me, we also review the service and representation terms before touring homes.
