What are buyer closing costs?
These generally include lender fees, appraisal, title work, prepaids, and insurance. Expect around 2–6% of the purchase price.
Do I need a home inspection?
Yes. Inspections reveal the condition of major systems and identify potential repairs, giving you peace of mind and negotiation leverage.
How competitive is the current market?
In many Macomb and St. Clair communities—especially near Lake St. Clair—inventory remains limited, and desirable homes sell quickly. We help you make strong, strategic offers.
Can you help with new construction?
Absolutely. We guide you through builder contracts, pricing, inspections, and upgrades to protect your interests.
