Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach me at barbie.bowen@compass.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

What's the first step in buying a home?

The first step is meeting with a Realtor and getting pre-approved with a trusted lender. During our consultation, we'll discuss your goals, budget, timeline, and the type of home you're looking for. Once you're pre-approved, we can start shopping with confidence and make strong offers when the right property comes along.

How much money do I need to buy a home?

Many buyers are surprised to learn they don't need 20% down. Depending on the loan program, you may be able to purchase with as little as 3% down, and some buyers qualify for down payment assistance. In addition to your down payment, you'll want to budget for closing costs, earnest money, inspections, and moving expenses. I can help you understand exactly what to expect based on your situation.

Why should I work with BARBIE?

Buying a home is one of the largest financial decisions you'll make. I provide personalized guidance from your first consultation through closing, helping you avoid costly mistakes and negotiate with confidence. My background in residential sales, new construction, investment properties, and development gives my clients a broader perspective on value, resale potential, and long-term wealth building through real estate.

Should I buy new construction or resale?

The right choice depends on your goals, budget, timeline, and tolerance for future projects.

Because I have experience as both a Realtor and a developer, I've worked extensively with all types of properties and can help you evaluate the true value—not just the listing price.
