When the Simple Becomes Complex:

Huettner Capital is a residential and commercial real estate lender. We handle all types of financing and specialize in complex transactions.

These situations typically involve self-employment, multiple properties, wealth management, investment property, relocation, and divorce to name a few. However, most people do not realize how frequently their situation is too complex for the typical lender to handle effectively.

Getting these loans done is not the problem. The problem is the people getting most borrower’s their loans. They simply have far too little knowledge and experience to get anything other than the cookie cutter loan done in less than several months. This is the reason why the traditional loan origination process just doesn’t work any more.

Creating a team and new loan process that works with full documentation loans, especially the complex ones, was the whole point in starting Huettner Capital from the very beginning. Welcome to the solution!

Understanding the Colorado Real Estate Market

Colorado’s real estate market offers a wide range of opportunities for first-time homebuyers. Whether you’re drawn to the energy of downtown Denver or the tranquility of the mountain towns, knowing what you can afford is your first step. The market here is dynamic and can vary greatly from one neighborhood to the next.

Our professionals at Huettner Capital are experts in the Colorado housing market. We’ll help you navigate the diverse options and find a place that fits your budget and lifestyle. By understanding local trends and prices, we can position you to make a smart investment that feels right.

Financial Preparation Before House Hunting

Before you start looking for your dream home, it’s important to get your finances in order. This preparation is key to a smooth home-buying process.

  1. Check Your Credit Score: Your credit score will significantly influence the mortgage terms you’re offered. A better score can mean lower interest rates and more favorable loan conditions. If you’re unsure where you stand, our team can help you access and understand your credit report, and offer tips on how to improve your score if needed.
  2. Get Pre-Approved for a Mortgage: Mortgage pre-approval is crucial, especially in Colorado’s competitive market. It shows sellers that you are serious and financially prepared to make a purchase. We handle the pre-approval process for you, gathering your financial information and helping you understand how much you can comfortably afford to borrow.

Choosing the Right Home and Closing the Deal

With your finances prepped, you’ll feel more confident diving into the house-hunting phase. Finding the right home involves more than loving the layout or the neighborhood; it’s also about making a wise financial decision.

  1. Selecting the Right Location: Your home’s location affects not just your daily life but also your home’s long-term value. Think about what matters to you: proximity to work, quality schools, resale values, and more. We provide insights into various Colorado communities, helping you weigh these factors and choose a location that promises growth and happiness.
  2. Home Inspection and Closing: Once you’ve made an offer on a house, a home inspection is crucial. This step can uncover potential problems that could cost you down the line. We’ll guide you through what to expect and how to proceed if issues arise. Finally, during the closing, we ensure you understand all the paperwork and legal jargon. Our team makes the closing process transparent, handling the details so you can focus on the excitement of moving into your new home.
