10 Questions You Can Ask Me Anytime (Even If You’re Not Buying or Selling Yet)

Here’s something most people don’t realize:
You don’t have to wait until you’re officially ready to buy or sell a home before talking to a real estate professional.

In fact, the best time to start asking questions is long before you’re signing papers, touring homes, or prepping your property for sale. Early planning gives you clarity, confidence, and a huge advantage in New Jersey’s competitive real estate market.

Whether you’re a year away, three years away, or just getting curious about homeownership, here are 10 questions you can ask me anytime — no commitment required. 🏡✨

🔟 1. “What can I do now to start preparing for buying or selling in the next 1–3 years?”
Future buyers often need more time than they think — and small steps now can position you for success later.

💳 2. “How do I improve my credit score before buying a home?”
Credit impacts your mortgage rate and monthly payment. I can help you understand where to start and what lenders are looking for.

From mortgage rate shifts to seasonal trends, I’ll share up-to-date insights so you know what’s coming.
