Questions, answered

What parts of Michigan do you cover?

The whole state: metro Detroit, Ann Arbor, Lansing, Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo, Traverse City, the lakeshore and the Upper Peninsula. Enter your ZIP and we match you with a partner who works that area.

Is this really free?

Yes. There's no cost to you. Our partner agents and lenders are paid the usual way, and only if you choose to work with them.

Who will contact me?

One of our partner real estate agents or mortgage lenders who serves your area. Keep your phone handy: they may call or text from a number you don't recognize. You can reply STOP or ask them to stop at any time.

Should I get pre-approved before I look at homes?

Usually, yes. A pre-approval shows sellers you're serious and tells you exactly what you can afford. After you send your request, tell us you need a mortgage and we'll add a partner lender too.

Can you help me sell and buy at the same time?

Absolutely. Pick "Buying & selling" and we'll match you with an agent experienced in coordinating both sides of a move.
