Happy Mother’s Day

Whether you’re a new mom, single mom, retired mom, or returning to the workforce mom, we want to wish you a Happy Mother’s Day.

Here at White Diamond Realty, we understand the ins and outs of buying a home, especially if you’re a woman qualifying on your own. Here is a beautiful story in Apartment Therapy of a Mom that was able to buy a home on her own for the first time after age 60.

If you can relate to this story … we can help. We are a woman-owned business, so we understand the special considerations necessary for single mother homeownership.

We can help you avoid some of the mistakes and pitfalls new homebuyers experience with our expertise and complete understanding of the process.

Here is a two-part video with information and suggestions for success as a single mother in purchasing your first home. Of course, as your local expert agent, we are always the best resource for finding and purchasing your first home. So reach out. We’d love to help you spend your next Mother’s Day in your new home.
