Our mother passed away 4 months ago. I'm going to need a loan so that I can buy my sister & brother out. All of our names are on the deed of the family home. I don't know the first thing about real estate but I have found out because my name is on the trust & deed, that it should be pretty simple. I'd like to clean my credit up being that I should be able to begin the process in the next month or so. What do you suggest I do? Please help!
Lucy, First of all I'm sorry for your loss. I'd like to talk to you to get some more details of your situation, but I suggest you get in touch with a mortgage professional to begin the process of getting a loan. Have you agreed on a price already with your sister and brother? Give me a call @510-384-9424 so we can discuss your situation, I can refer you to a mortgage professional to assess your situation and we can go from there.
I can afford a house in the $175,000 range. It will be my first home. Which East Bay city has the best first-time home owners program? Ideally, I'd like to stay as close to SF as possible. Not crazy about Oakland but willing to consider. Also willing to consider San Leandro and Berkeley.
