FAQs
How do I start the home-buying process in North Dakota?
A common first step is obtaining a mortgage pre-approval to clarify your price range. From there, an Oaktree REALTOR® can assist with property searches, offer preparation, and negotiations, while helping you stay informed throughout inspections, financing, and closing.
What costs should I expect when buying a home?
Typical costs include your down payment, appraisal and inspection fees, closing costs (often 2–5% of the purchase price), and moving expenses. An itemized estimate is typically provided by your lender prior to commitment.
How long does it take to close on a home?
Closing timelines vary, with many transactions completing within 30–45 days after an offer is accepted. Timing depends on financing, inspections, and title processing. Buyers using financing should verify timelines with their lender, while cash transactions may close more quickly.
How do you determine my home’s market value?
We conduct a thorough market analysis using recent sales data, local trends, and your property’s unique features to support accurate, market-informed pricing.
How can I make my home more attractive to buyers?
Simple updates—fresh paint, decluttering, landscaping, and professional photos—can make a huge difference. We’ll provide a customized staging checklist before you list.
What should I know about property taxes in the county I reside?
Property tax rates vary by location and property type. We’ll connect you with up-to-date local resources so you can review estimated annual property taxes before purchasing.
Are there first-time homebuyer programs available in North Dakota?
Yes! The North Dakota Housing Finance Agency offers programs that may help with down payments and financing. We can direct you to the appropriate resources to learn more.
