I agree, KZreadrs only show the end not the in between... def appreciative of you sharing this journey... I hope your viewers planning to buy a home take all of these tips in consideration. A few videos ago, you said you were looking for a feeling when you found THE HOUSE- THIS IS THE FEELING... Also, when you were talking to your friend about getting the house and saying “I need to call my parents” I almost cried 🥺 reminded me of how fast everything went for me from that moment to the day I got the keys.... ENJOOOOOY THIS SEASON AND EVERY STEP GIRL! so proud of you and cannot wait to see the reveal of the house 🏡💛

Jeanine- I just wanted to say thank you so much for this!! I plan to start my house hunting journey at an also competitive area and I’ve truthfully felt really overwhelmed just reading up on the process and laws. This was definitely the 101 I needed. Congrats again on your offer being accepted and crossing fingers that you continue to be able to close as expected ❤️

Congratulations 👏!!! Many blessings to you thank you for sharing. It was truly very helpful all your advice.

Glad you got your offer accepted! I never knew how crazy it was either. I did the same put offers and got outbid. The one I finally got had been listed that same day no pictures up yet online. I went to visit at 7pm after work and put the offer in right then and I did asking plus full closing costs. That’s what put me over the edge of other people who offered more but not closing costs. Can’t wait to see your moving in process videos!

I am so excited for a house tour!

Thank you so much!! Your video was very useful for me!! I really appreciate it!!

Congratulations 🍾🎈🎊!!! Many blessing on your next chapter in life.

Jeanine, I LOVED this video! I manage the social media accounts for Loan Officers in SC & TN at Guild Mortgage (a private direct mortgage lender.) The tips you shared are things that our team aims to educate first-time homebuyers about because we understand that the home buying process can seem daunting, especially right now with the low housing inventory & low-interest rates. Thank you again for sharing your experience! I am going to recommend this video to our first-time homebuyers as a resource. :)

Jeanine congrats on your home. Super happy for you. ❤

Yay this is so helpful! My husband and I are currently house hunting in Dallas and the struggle is real😬

love ur videos Jeanine!!

This was so helpful, thank you so much!

🎉 Congrats on your home Jeanine!! just bought my first house in Dallas as well! It was exhausting honestly. But I got lucky. My bonus mom was my realtor and she found one on a Friday 12/18, We looked at it on Saturday 12/19, I put in an offer on 12/21, and I closed on 1/6. But that was after looking at what felt like a zillion properties. I love it. I haven’t moved in yet. But it’s been a lot lol. Buying a house is expensive. I feel like I’ve been shelling out cash left and right lol. It’s perfect for me and I’m excited. But LORD, I do not have any interest in going through that process anytime soon. It was so overwhelming. But by the grace of God I’ll be ringing in 30 in my brand new house 🎉

Love this! Super helpful! Definitely inspired to take steps to stop renting & invest into a home 🙈

Congratulations Jeanine on your new house!!!!! 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

This is extremely so helpful! Thank you ☺️ I agree with you about why do you have to move to the suburbs... it’s your home at the end of the day!

Congrats on getting a new house in Dallas Texas. Love you, you look so happy. Can’t wait for a house tour

Great tips Jeanine!!

Thank you for sharing this. My boyfriend and I have been in the hunt since December 2020.. we’re touring a house tomorrow that we love... and this is all so stressful!!

You're such a smart young woman. Good for you and congrats on your new home! God bless 🙏

Oh wow the 6493 house is two streets from me! It’s such a good neighborhood by I agree it’s not worth the price. I’m so happy for you and congratulations home owner 🎉

Great video! 😊

Really great tips. 🙌

awesome video!! I live In NYC and I am looking at homes in Westchester (suburbs outside)... it is WILD what the market is like! exactly like Dallas. homes are going above asking price in less than a day! you really hit the nail on the head with everything!

I grew up in Yonkers in westchester! The apartments are not bad, but if you are looking at houses, its almost as expensive as Manhattan.

In the process of helping my mom buy a house. We’ve been looking for a few months. We really can’t afford a beautiful home so it’s been discouraging. I’ve learned a lot through the last few months.

I recommend getting a ring and security system as well

Great tips!

You should be proud of yourself for being able to buy a house at this age😊🌸such an inspo

Congrats! Just to clarify, the fees you are talking about are a one-time payment at closing. The monthly mortgage does not include the fees you showed.

Congrats! It took me over a year to find a house and in the suburbs and now we're house hunting again since September and no luck at all :( Prices are so inflated and houses have so much competition even though they are small and not great houses to begin with! I feel so discouraged!

Ugh don’t remind me!! Buying my first home was pretty much the same nightmare a few years back. It’s totally a roller coaster of emotions! Glad you finally landed a house...I’ll be praying nothing else pops up from the underwriter.

hope alls the best for u x

I AM SO PUMPED!!! i cant wait to see it!!!! (ps girl from the porch haha)

Thank you so much for this video. Although I don’t plan on buying a house for a while I still found this video so helpful. My husband and I are moving to Dallas next year. Are there any neighborhoods that you would recommend looking into? We plan on staying in an apartment

She should have included the types of loans you can get like FHA or conventional and how much down payments you need for them. And like with a FHA loan you are required to have mortgage insurance. And what all goes into your closing costs and how much of it goes into your escrow on your home.

I've heard on the Progressive commercial that when people start owning their homes, they become their parents. Do you believe that?

Thanks for making this video, so helpful for future home buyers! Side note: where type of plant is in the background? 😍 I’ve been looking for one similar

Hi 🙋‍♀️ this is a very nice 👍🏻

This is an informative video. As someone that paid my lawyer’s retainer & took the HUD new home buyer class a year ago this weekend, I think your audience would be best served by slowing down & covering all this information in longer form. This is something that needs to be discussed over a series of longer videos. There are too many programs & rules to miss in the process.

How do I know when to get a financial adviser??? I always want one but not sure if I don’t make enough for it! Help Jeanine 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 PS SO HAPPY FOR YOU!!! Praying you get it and all goes well!!

I moved and it will get better! Trust me!!

Congratulations! I’m actually looking to move to Texas in a year and your journey is helping a ton!!

Can you share this airbnb listing? Looking to go to Dallas and the light is amazing in there!!

I live in Denver, CO and the market sucks for buyers right now! Its def a sellers...so if you are a seller lol good for you!! Make that money! But us buyers are going through it!

Being young, you have to live where it's poppin 🤣🤣

Are you paying PMI? Can you do a whole cost breakdown video (if comfortable with doing).

The market is SO stressful right now. My fiancé and I have put in 4 offers so far and have been outbid every time. The last one had 36 total offers 😩

The amount of paperwork you sign when closing is insane it takes forever! Lol People definitely think buying a house is super easy and it’s not and not cheap either

You are not kidding about the signing. We bought a house in 2019 and almost all the signatures were done digitally. So much easier than the first time we bought a house.

I moved to Texas (from Oklahoma but I grew up in California) in July 2016, and you moved from Texas to California in January 2018 (I think?). Now I moved from Texas to California in December 2020 (not my idea) and you're moving from California to Texas in February or March 2021. I feel like we just keep switching places haha.

You must have a great credit score and good job for that price if you're a first time buyer !!

Watched the whole thing😂😂

How much is the PMI insurance? Is it a one time price or is it every month? How much would it be total eventually? Thanks.
