preferred vendors

People I trust to get you to the closing table.

Buying or selling touches a lot of hands. These are professionals I've come to trust. You're free to use anyone you like, but if you want a head start, start here.

Lenders

A good lender makes or breaks a deal. Each of these is licensed and handles VA, conventional, and the rest. Use their tools to run real numbers, since I am not a licensed lender and my calculators are only estimates.

These are independent companies, not part of Christie's International Real Estate. I don't receive payment for these referrals, and you're always free to choose your own lender, inspector, or other providers.
