Frequently Asked Questions

For Buyers

Do I need to be pre-approved before looking at homes?

Yes. Pre-approval helps you shop within your real budget and makes your offers stronger. We can connect you with a trusted lender.

What’s an Earnest Money Deposit (EMD)?

EMD is an amount provided by the buyer during the Purchase Agreement process that will be deposited into an escrow account after a purchase agreement has been ratified between seller and buyer. The seller may retain the EMD if the buyer breaks specific agreements outlined in the contract.

What if the home inspection finds issues?

We’ll walk you through the report, discuss repairs with the seller, and help you make informed decisions.

How long does it take to close?

Typically 30–45 days from contract to keys in-hand — but we’ll help expedite where possible.

For Sellers

How much does staging cost me?

With Workhorse, staging is complimentary for qualifying listings. We believe in showcasing your home right — and that shouldn’t cost extra.

How do you price my home?

We analyze recent sales, current market conditions, and property upgrades — then provide you with smart, data-driven pricing options.

Will my home be marketed online?

Yes! We market across major real estate platforms, social media, and our agent networks to give your property full exposure.

Who shows my home?

Only licensed agents with pre-approved buyers. Showings are scheduled with your convenience in mind.
