Prequalify

Get a No-Strings-Attached Financial Assessment

This no-commitment, knowledge-building exercise gives you insight into how much home you could probably afford, as well as which home loan type might be your best fit. All it requires is for a lender to take a snapshot of your finances and run a credit check.

Prequalification is a powerful tool that will let you know exactly what steps you'll need to take before you're ready to purchase a home—if you're not there already! It also establishes a relationship with a lender, which will come in handy later on when you need preapproval to purchase a particular home.

Common Homebuying Myths Debunked:

  • You need a 20% down payment. Actually, most buyers don't. Some even qualify for zero-down loans.
  • You have to pay for everything. Maybe not. Several home loan types allow you to use a financial gift from family or friends.
  • You need perfect credit. There wouldn't be many homebuyers if this were the case. While exceptional credit is ideal, many buyers have no trouble qualifying with good credit.

Dr. Jan Duffy Can Help You:

  • Connect with trusted lenders in Las Vegas
  • Understand your financing options
  • Navigate the prequalification process
  • Prepare for preapproval when ready

House Hunt

Search On-Site or Online

Once you've prequalified and know your price range, you're ready to go shopping. Depending on what's most convenient for you, you could browse online, tour communities in person, or a combination of both! This is the time to put together your wish list of everything you'd want in your dream home.

At Homestead West, you'll find luxury ranch homes on pool-sized lots, with optional detached casitas and multi-generational layouts. Dr. Jan Duffy can help you explore both Plan 3336 and Plan 3704 to find the perfect fit for your family.

Contract

Make a Preliminary Commitment to Buy

One of the great advantages of new home construction is that it's first-come, first-served. As long as you're a qualified buyer, the house is yours if you're the one who got there first. When you've found a home that checks the right boxes, you'll want to act fast to get it under contract—ensuring that no other buyer can swoop in and buy it out from under you.

Contracting Considerations:

  • • Home loan preapproval
  • • Earnest money deposit
  • • Building timeline
  • • Avoiding major transactions before closing, like purchasing a car or large furniture

Dr. Jan Duffy's Contract Expertise:

  • Review all contract terms and conditions
  • Negotiate on your behalf
  • Ensure your interests are protected
  • Coordinate with Century Communities
  • Guide you through the entire process

Closing Considerations:

  • Down Payment
  • Closing costs
  • Homeowners insurance
  • Moving arrangements
  • Change of address
