Where the Lender Fits In Your Purchase

1

Talk to a Lender First

Before you start touring homes, a conversation with Michael Griffin gives you a realistic picture of your financing options and what the process involves.

2

Get Clear on a Comfortable Number

You'll walk away with a monthly payment range that fits your budget and plans — a number you're confident about, not just approved for.

3

Shop With Confidence

Once your comfortable range is set, you and My'Kel can focus your home search on properties that make sense for your situation.

4

Coordinate Through Closing

Your lender and your agent stay in sync as your purchase moves forward, so paperwork and timing stay organized on both sides.

What to Bring to a Lender Conversation

Your Goals & Timeline

A general sense of what you're looking for and when you'd like to move — this quarter, next year, or still exploring.

A Realistic Monthly Comfort Level

An honest idea of what monthly payment feels manageable for your household, given everything else in your budget.

How Long You Plan to Stay

Whether this is a shorter-term move or a longer-term home can shape which financing conversation makes sense.

Questions About the Steps

Anything you're unsure about in the process — there's no such thing as too basic a question at this stage.

A Note on Estimates

Calculators and any figures discussed on this website are estimates for planning purposes only — not a loan offer, a pre-approval, or a guarantee of terms. Actual terms come from the lender after a full review of your situation.
