First Time Home Buyer?

There's no doubt that going from renting to home ownership is a big step. You've got to save enough money for a down payment, closing costs, earnest money (typically 1% of the purchase price at the time you make an offer), and inspection(s). You need to meet with a lender to obtain a preapproval for your loan and choose your Realtor.

Then, the process of searching for your new home can begin. The internet has made this an enjoyable experience since you can view nearly all homes for sale online. Of course, you can't be serious about your purchase possibilities until you've actually been inside a few homes.

When is a Portland area escrow really closed? An escrow is really closed when the
deed isrecorded and funds are available. Unfortunately, the word closing
can be misunderstood. The perception of closing to a buyer or seller may be when they
sign the papers. This is a misnomer. When the buyer and seller sign; it is just that, signing.
It can be anywhere from 24 to 72 hours (sometimes longer) before the file is actually closed and the keys can be presented a buyer.
