Buying is More Complicated than TV would have you believe!

We are surprised – Not really..

Home buying is much more complicated than television shows would have you believe.

Which is why we are so thankful that we had an amazing team of experts on our side!

If you need a mortgage banker  you HAVE TO call Tim McBratney with Pacific Residential Mortgage, he has been an amazing partner and has made all the difference to our home buying experience!

If you are looking for a realtor in the Salem, Oregon are you HAVE TO call Julienne Ritter with Berkshire Hathaway Homes, she knows what she is doing and helped to give us such peace of mind when searching and putting an offer on our first home!

With the help of these amazing people we are confident in our first home, and know that it will be a great place to start our home ownership adventure!!

Welcome to our blog and our latest adventure!
