Fast Home Buying in Columbia, MO | FTP Realty First-Time Buyer Process

Buying your first home doesn’t have to feel like running a marathon in dress shoes.

We’ve all heard the stories:
– Endless paperwork
– Confusing calls
– Agents that ghost you
– Lenders who take 3 weeks to email back

At FTP Realty, we do it differently.
We built a system that’s fast, simple, and actually built around you.

Let’s show you how we speed things up without cutting corners.

Homebuying Doesn’t Have to Be Slow or Stressful

Think homebuying has to take 3+ months, 15 people, and one full-blown meltdown?

Not with us.

We help first-time buyers in Columbia and Boone County move from “just looking” to “keys in hand” way faster than the old-school approach.

Why? Because we cut out the middlemen—and the confusion.

The Problem with Traditional Agents and Lenders

Here’s what normally happens:

1. You find a house
2. Your agent sends you to a lender
3. That lender sends you a list of documents
4. You send them in... and hear nothing for 10 days
5. You stress, wait, and repeat

By the time things move forward, the home is gone—or your sanity is.

Our Process: Real Estate + Lending = Speed

At FTP Realty, we’re your agent and lender in one.

That means: – No bouncing between teams
– No waiting on replies
– No miscommunication
– No unnecessary delays

We handle the full process, from showing homes to closing loans—under one roof. So you move faster and more confidently every step of the way.

No Surprise Fees. No Wasted Time. Just Results.

When you work with us, you get:

✅ Transparent pricing
✅ Real-time updates
✅ 100% commission credit applied to your loan
✅ A timeline that fits your life—not someone else’s calendar

And because we know the Columbia market inside and out, we help you move fast without missing important details.

From Pre-Approval to Keys—Here’s the Fast Track

Here’s how we make it happen:

1. Start with a free consult (we talk goals and budget)
2. Get pre-approved quickly
3. Start shopping with one expert guiding you
4. Use your commission credit at closing
5. Move into your new home—with cash left over

We’ve helped buyers go from first consult to closing in as little as 3 weeks. No kidding.
