General Memphis-area figures as of this year — your specific numbers depend on the neighborhood, loan program, and your financial picture. The quiz below accounts for that.
Not because they picked a bad house — because they never got a straight answer on what they could actually afford, what a lender would really approve, or which down payment assistance programs applied to them. That's the gap I close before you ever start touring homes.
I work across Memphis and the surrounding suburbs, so whether you're comparing school districts, chasing a shorter commute, or just trying to get the most house for your budget, the comparison is based on real numbers for your situation — not a generic pre-approval letter.
Where your credit, savings, and income actually put you in the Memphis market right now.
A real number from a lender, plus which down payment programs you likely qualify for.
Comparing neighborhoods on schools, commute, and price — not just square footage.
Negotiation, paperwork, and closing — handled so you're not guessing at any step.
It depends on the loan type. Many Memphis buyers qualify for programs that bring it down to 0–3.5%. The quiz shows which ones apply to you.
No. Most lenders here work with scores starting around 580–620, depending on the program.
From pre-approval to closing, most buyers take 30 to 60 days once they've found a home, depending on financing and how competitive the listing is.
Yes. It tells you what you can actually afford before you fall in love with something outside your budget — and sellers in competitive neighborhoods often won't consider an offer without one.
Five minutes. No pressure. No obligation.
