★★★★★"We cannot say enough wonderful things about Courtney Billings! ❤️ She was absolutely amazing throughout our entire home-buying journey. As first-time home buyers, we had so many questions, and Courtney was always there to answer them, explain everything, and make sure we understood every step of the process. She went above and beyond for our whole family and made what could have been a stressful experience feel so much easier and more comfortable. She was patient, helpful, responsive, and truly cared about finding the right home for us. We are so grateful we had Courtney by our side for such an important milestone in our lives. If you’re looking for a realtor who genuinely cares about her clients and will go the extra mile, we highly recommend Courtney Billings! 🏡❤️"
★★★★★"Courtney made our first time home buying as stress free on us as she could! She was always available for us to call anytime we had questions! Not only was she professional but Courtney was also very kind and caring throughout the whole process. "
The questions we get most.
Do I need to be pre-approved before we look?+
Pre-approval doesn't cost anything and takes about 20 minutes with a good lender. It also lets you write real offers when the right home shows up. We recommend it before the second tour.
How much should I budget for closing costs?+
Plan for roughly 2–3% of the purchase price. Some of it can be negotiated with the seller depending on the market.
Do you charge buyers directly?+
In most transactions the seller's side covers buyer representation. If a specific home requires anything different, you'll know before we tour it.
How fast can we close?+
Cash: 10–14 days. Financed: typically 30–35 days. We map the timeline to your life, not the other way around.
