Experience the Difference, Why Buyers Choose Us Over Zillow Agents



🏡 Real estate isn’t just about unlocking doors, it's about guiding you through one of life’s biggest decisions.



Many Zillow agents are newer to the field, often inexperienced showing agents focused on quick access, not long-term service.



✨ That’s where our team stands apart.



Here’s what sets us apart:



Experience matters: We bring years of market knowledge and negotiation expertise to every client.


Team support: You’re backed by a full-service group marketing, contracts, and closing experts all working together.


Relationship-driven: We’re committed to your goals, not just your closing date.


Local insight: We live and work in this community. We know the neighborhoods, the trends, and the people.


🚪 Zillow agents might show you a home. We help you find the right one and walk with you every step of the way.

📣 Experience the difference. Choose a team that treats you like a partner, not a transaction.

🔍 What’s Going On with Rates?

📉 Mortgage Rates Just Hit 2025 Lows

Here’s Why That Matters for Savannah Buyers and Homeowners

If you have been waiting for the right time to buy a home or refinance your current mortgage, this could be your moment. Mortgage rates have dropped to their lowest point of the year, creating a rare opportunity for buyers and homeowners across Savannah and nearby communities.

Right now, thirty year fixed conventional loans are averaging below 6 percent, while FHA and VA loans are sitting comfortably in the mid 5 percent range. That kind of shift can make a big difference:

• 🏠 Buyers gain more purchasing power, stretching their budgets further
• 💸 Homeowners can lower monthly payments or shorten loan terms through refinancing

💡 Why This Matters

Even a small change in mortgage rates can make a major difference in your long term financial picture. Whether you are:


• Purchasing your first home
• Moving up to your next
• Or considering a refinance

…this dip in rates could be the perfect time to act.

📞 Let’s Talk Strategy 912.335.3956

The market moves quickly, and so should you. If you are thinking about making a move, let’s connect and explore your best options while rates are still in your favor.

I Have My Down Payment. What Else Do I Need to Save For?

Many buyers breathe a sigh of relief once they have saved enough for a down payment, but that is not the only expense to plan for when buying a home. To avoid surprises, it is important to budget for additional costs that come with the process.

Some of the most common expenses include the inspection fee and appraisal fee, both of which are paid upfront during the transaction. Closing costs, which cover items like lender fees, title insurance, and recording charges, usually add 3 to 5 percent of the loan amount. Beyond that, smart buyers also set aside three to six months of maintenance reserves to cover unexpected repairs, routine upkeep, or even emergency expenses after moving in.

In Savannah’s competitive real estate market, being prepared for more than just the down payment helps you buy with confidence. Saving ahead for these costs means smoother transactions and peace of mind as you step into homeownership.

What is Earnest Money and Why Does it Go to Escrow?

When you make an offer on a home in Savannah, you will likely be asked to provide earnest money. Think of it as your good faith deposit that shows the seller you are serious about buying their home.

Earnest money is typically one to three percent of the purchase price and is held in an escrow account until closing. This money is not an extra fee. At closing, it is applied toward your down payment or closing costs. If the sale does not go through because of a valid contingency, such as financing or inspection issues, the deposit is usually refunded to you.

For buyers, earnest money strengthens your offer and gives the seller confidence that you are committed. For sellers, it helps protect against buyers walking away without reason. Understanding how earnest money works ensures you step into the Savannah real estate market with clarity and confidence.

Closing Costs are a Mystery! Here’s the Breakdown in 30 Seconds

When buyers budget for a home, they often think only about the down payment. What surprises many is the added expense of closing costs. In Savannah, closing costs usually range from 3 to 5 percent of the loan amount, and they cover important services that finalize your purchase.

The three biggest items most buyers see are title insurance, lender fees, and the appraisal. Title insurance protects you and your lender against legal claims on the property. Lender fees include charges for processing and underwriting your loan. The appraisal confirms the home’s value to make sure you are not paying more than it is worth. Other smaller items may include recording fees, prepaid taxes, and homeowners insurance.

Knowing about closing costs upfront means no surprises at the settlement table. With the right preparation, you can plan for these expenses and move into your new Savannah home with confidence.
