Episode 7: More of Monique's first-time home buyer questions answered!

In this short, fast-paced episode - recorded just before Massachusetts began the state of emergency for the pandemic - Monique continues her home buying quest, asking many of the questions you would ask. She gets helpful answers from Pam Balboni, one of MassHousing's home buying experts. Monique and Pam talk about finding a lender to work with and what materials you will need to give to the lender; pre-qualification and pre-approval; down payment assistance; job loss protection insurance; buying and paying for a "fixer-upper" and how sometimes you can get a seller of a home to pay for your closing costs.
