Top Questions from Our Home Buyer Bootcamp
Every journey begins with a question — or in the case of buying a home, quite a few of them. For over a decade, our Home Buyer Bootcamp at Sage Haus has been a cornerstone for first-time buyers, answering the most common questions & easing the transition into homeownership. This guide offers insights into those concerns, helping you start your home buying process with confidence. Let’s explore the questions that you, like many others, might be searching for as you consider stepping into the world of homeownership.
Understanding Your Buying Power
“What can I really afford?” This is usually the first question on every prospective homebuyer’s mind. The answer involves more than just the sales price of a house — it includes considering closing costs, property taxes, & ongoing maintenance. Getting pre-approved for a mortgage is a crucial step, as it clarifies not only how much a lender is willing to give but also what feels comfortable for you financially. We connect you with financial experts who break down these figures, making your financial path clear & manageable.

Starting Your Home Buying Journey
“Where do I start?” It’s all about building your knowledge base & choosing the right support team. Our Home Buyer Bootcamp is designed exactly for this purpose — to equip you with essential knowledge & introduce you to a team that will stand by your side from start to finish. Consider us your partners in this journey, guiding you through each step with over a decade of advice & expert insights.
Timeline from Start to Finish
“How long does the process take from start to finish?” The purchasing timeline can typically range from 30-60 days from contract to closing. However, the current competitive market & limited inventory mean that finding the right property might extend this timeline. Our goal is to balance efficiency with thoroughness, ensuring that you never feel rushed into making a decision.
Handling Buyer Hesitations
“Is it normal to get cold feet?” Absolutely. Many buyers experience moments of hesitation. But thanks to Wyatt’s expertise from his former home inspection license & our comprehensive property evaluations, our clients feel well-informed & secure throughout the process. By addressing potential concerns proactively, we ensure that you are confident in your decision to move forward.
Prioritizing When Viewing Homes
“What should I prioritize when viewing homes?” Remember, it’s crucial to look beyond the aesthetics. The structural integrity of the home & its location should be your top priorities. These are the aspects that are most difficult to change. We help you focus on properties that not only meet your immediate needs but also represent a good long-term investment.
Taking on the home-buying journey is an exciting time, and being well-prepared can make all the difference. If you have more questions or are ready to start looking for your new home, we’re here to help. Reach out today, and let’s find your perfect haus together.
