Make the move easier to reason about
Three conversations, connected
A relocation compresses decisions that normally have room to breathe. Working the move, the financing and the offer as one conversation keeps the timing honest and shows you which questions still need an answer before you commit to anything.
Your move
Talk through your start date, intended area, occupancy, and what matters most about where you land.
Your mortgage path
Review the applicable process for your borrower file and the property you are considering, including how a new job or an out-of-state move is treated.
Your next decision
Understand what to prepare before an offer and which questions still need an answer.
Local context, from someone who is here
California is not one market. Commute patterns, property taxes, insurance availability, HOA structures and inventory all change from county to county, and a relocating buyer rarely has time to learn that by driving it. John has spent 36 years working these markets and can give you a grounded read on the areas you are weighing.

A possible source of help, reviewed in context
In an eligible transaction, John may be able to apply seller-paid buyer-agent compensation toward eligible buyer closing costs. Any such assistance depends on the seller, the buyer’s agreement, the applicable lender and loan program, and the final transaction documents. It is not guaranteed, and it is not a commitment to lend.
The specifics belong in your buyer agreement, where they can be written down for your transaction rather than described in general terms. John will walk you through that document before you sign it.
