Helpful insights for buyers and sellers in Portland, Oregon
1. What’s the first step in the home-buying process?
Start by getting pre-approved for a mortgage to understand your price range and improve your negotiating position.
2. How much do I need for a down payment?
Depending on the loan, it could range from 3.5% to 20%. Your lender can help determine what’s right for your situation.
3. What’s the difference between pre-qualification and pre-approval?
Pre-qualification is an informal estimate. Pre-approval involves a more detailed review of your credit and finances.
4. How long does it take to buy a home in Portland?
Most home purchases in Portland close within 30–60 days after an offer is accepted.
5. Do I need a real estate agent to buy a home?
While not required, working with a local professional like Keenan Driscoll can make the process smoother, especially in a competitive market like Portland.
6. What are closing costs and who pays them?
Buyers typically pay 2–5% of the purchase price in closing costs. Some of these can be negotiated with the seller.
7. What should I look for during a home inspection?
Focus on major systems like the roof, foundation, plumbing, and electrical. Keenan can help you understand which issues are typical in Portland-area homes.
8. How do I know what my Portland home is worth?
A comparative market analysis (CMA) will provide an estimate based on recent sales. Keenan Driscoll offers local expertise to price your home competitively.
9. Should I make repairs before listing?
Yes—addressing minor issues can improve first impressions and avoid surprises during inspection.
10. How long will it take to sell my home?
In the current Portland market, homes typically sell in 30–60 days, depending on condition, price, and location.
11. What is staging and does it make a difference?
Staging highlights your home’s best features and can lead to faster, higher offers.
12. Do I need to be home during showings?
No—buyers often prefer viewing without the seller present to better visualize themselves in the space.
14. What happens during the closing process?
The final steps include signing documents, funding the transaction, and officially transferring ownership.
15. What is escrow?
Escrow is a neutral third party that holds funds and documents until both parties meet all agreed-upon terms.
16. Are property taxes included in my mortgage?
In most cases, yes—your lender may collect taxes and insurance as part of your monthly payment.
17. What if the appraisal comes in low?
You can negotiate, cover the difference, or potentially walk away—depending on the contingencies in your offer.
Whether you're buying your first home, upgrading, or selling a long-time property, having a trusted local guide makes all the difference.
