I’m a first time home buyer (or condo depending).
I’m trying to figure out roughly how much I could get for a mortgage at the various standard options. I make ,000 a year, no dependents, unmarried and have good credit. I have enough money saved for a down payment as well. I really appreciate all of your help! thanks!

I am moving in October and I wanted to buy a house If i am a first time home buyer is there any Government grants I can get in Kansas? i would be living in Wyandotte county. If there is and they loans for my down payment or are they free grant money?

I want to get pre-approved but i am not sure to do so in the area where i currently reside or the new location. I am a first time home buyer and i don’t want to be taken advantage of. I have found some really nice properties in the location i am moving to and i would like to jump on these deals while they are hot! I will not be moving until december of 09.

I’m a first time home buyer and looking for a multi-family home due to necessary circumstances. I’ve seen some homes I liked, but they either needed a lot of work (most of the issues seem to be cosmetic, but who knows what other violations they have), or they were very clean, but they just did not wow me (or they had someone who had a lease living in them, but b/c we’ll need both residences that’s going to be a problem).

I’ve been to a few home buying classes, but I found my still learning on the go and increasingly frustrated b/c my wife and I want to move yesterday (but that’s just my impatience). When searching for homes, are there any keywords or things I should be looking for visually that will help me find a home easier?

We have engaged a great realtor and he’s been pointing things out, but are there some things I need to know.
