1. 🧮 Budget Breakdown Spreadsheet

The spreadsheet helps determine financial qualifications and affordability by providing a clear breakdown of income, budget allocations, and ideal mortgage payments.

It helps you determine what you can qualify for vs. what you can afford by:

1. Calculating Ideal Mortgage Payments: Based on different percentages of your net income.
2. Budget Allocation: Divides your income into Needs, Wants, and Savings, ensuring balanced financial planning.
3. Tracking Expenses: Monitors actual spending against your budget to keep finances on track.
4. Debt Status: Keeps track of debts to maintain financial health and determine mortgage qualification.

2. 🧮 Cash To Close Calculator

Calculate exactly how much cash you need to close on your dream home. This tool helps you:

1. Determine Down Payment: Based on your purchase price and loan type.
2. Plan Emergency Fund: Ensure you have enough savings for essentials.
3. Estimate Costs: Includes inspections, appraisals, and closing costs.
4. Track Your Goal: Monitor your progress towards the total amount needed.

3. 🧮 Timeline Tool

From assembling your expert team and getting pre-qualified to visiting homes, making offers, and closing the deal, this tool gives you a clear outline of how your home buying process should look like based off your desired close date.

4. 🧮 Home Inspection Helper

Easily organize and prioritize your home inspection concerns.

1. List Your Concerns: Paste all your inspection issues into the tool.
2. Sort by Importance: Arrange by cost of repair, severity level, location, and priority.

6. 📜 Best Time To Buy A Home Checklist PDF

When I was brainstorming a video about the common things I have seen excellent home buyers have, I noticed I was making a pretty sweet check list that I think would bring a lot of value to people.

So I decided to make this PDF as a bonus to the video I made about this topic. I took a gamble and made it in the style as my Dungeons & Dragons Lore Books and Handbooks since I enjoy reading them even though I don't have the chance to play as often.
