Sonya

Read through all of the helpful references on this forum first. You will probably find the answers to most of your questions. Then, come back and ask any additional questions that you may have.

Thanks !!

a reasoned response from eric...something we've come to expect. good advice to you, sonya. there is a wealth of information on this site that will stand you in good stead; and, as eric noted, you can always come back with specific questions once you've digested some of the other information. for us to do justice to your query as posted here would not be possible - there's much too much detail to discuss in a short reply.

Buying a home can be a puzzling experience. It is the single biggest purchase in most people’s lives and is filled with emotion, nervousness, and especially questions. The website's listed are filled with helpful information! Rates are low and it it a great time to buy!

well, welcome to our little community, karla. you hit it right - the process is quite confusing. some of our favorite answers are puzzlers, but we invite you to chime in with your advice, admonitions and all else you may bring to the table.
