Are you just starting your home search?

There's lot of great reason's why now is a great time to become a homeowner! It's true, the process can seem a little intimidating to get started. First and foremost, your first step really should be to secure a trustworthy lender. This can be the bank you currently have a relationship with, a credit union you belong to, or you may request a referral from a family member or friend. Either way, you will want to start here! The reason why? The current Real Estate market is moving so quickly, not being preapproved and ready to go could mean the home you want will likely be sold by the time you are ready. Get started with my quick application so I don't miss my dream home!!! or you may call direct to Aaron Daeges (952) 942-4756.

The other advantages of getting preapproved in advance can sometimes eliminate heartbreak, you will never want to over extend yourself with a home payment, or the term "being house broke" speaking with a lender can get you on the path to an affordable monthly payment, they can help you secure an attractive interest rate and a program that fits your finances and budget. Having these conversations early eliminates the unknowns when it's time to write an offer on the property of your dreams!

After you have a lender secure, a preapproval letter in hand, it's time to find a Real Estate agent you trust. Once you have an experienced Realtor on your side, it's time to have a buyer consultation with your real Estate agent to determine your wants, needs and budget so you can start looking for a new home! Search for a home is such an exciting time. If you're ready to find a new Home in Champlin, check out these great neighborhoods with "just listed" homes for sale!
