Can I Actually Afford To Buy A Home?
About this Event
Can I Actually Afford to Buy a Home?
You’ve looked at home prices on Redfin and Zillow of course. You’ve heard about interest rates. Maybe you’ve played around with an online mortgage calculator—and you're still wondering:
“Can I actually afford to buy a home?”
Let’s find out.
Join us in Kirkland for a free, in-person Homebuyer Workshop designed to help you understand the real numbers behind buying a home in 2026.
We’ll talk about the questions that actually matter:
How much home can I comfortably afford?
How much money do I really need saved?
What does my credit need to look like?
What would my actual monthly payment be?
How do my debts affect what I can buy?
Do I really need 3% or 20% down?
And how do I know if I’m ready?
🔢 LET’S RUN THE NUMBERS
This is where we're doing things differently.
Instead of just talking about homebuying, we’re going to walk through realistic buyer scenarios and show you how the numbers come together.
We’ll look at different purchase prices, down payments and loan options and break down things like:
• Estimated monthly payments
• Down-payment options
• Closing costs and cash needed
• Credit and debt considerations
• Buying power
• Different loan programs
• Potential seller contributions and strategies
You'll get to SEE how changing one part of the equation can change the bigger picture.
NOT READY TO BUY YET? YOU'RE STILL INVITED.
You don't need to be preapproved.
You don't need perfect credit.
You don't need 20% down.
And you don't need to be ready to buy this year.
Whether you’re hoping to buy soon, sometime next year, or you simply want to understand what it would take, this workshop is designed to give you education, clarity and a realistic next step.
No pressure. No judgment. Just real homebuying education and an opportunity to get your questions answered.
Give us one hour. Leave with a much clearer understanding of what buying a home could look like for you.
