Benefits for a First-Time Home Buyer

How Long Will It Take to Buy My First Home with Distinctive Homes?
If you are buying an already completed new home, then you can close and move into your new home as soon as your loan officer says you are ready. Most loans take around 30 days to close, but some lenders can work faster.
If you are starting at the beginning stages, you get to choose colors and watch the building process. It will take about 90 days from digging the hole to being able to move in. It will seem very slow at first. But once the roof and walls are in, the last part (usually the last 30 days) the home really comes together. It will be like magic, but better because you know it is real and you know the home will be yours!
