Buying Your Home, the Origin Way


Meet the Pizarro's who recently purchased their first home! We interviewed them about their experience working with Origin SC.

Check out this awesome success story!

My husband and I have two girls and we have moved quite a bit in the last 7 years. We decided about a year ago that we wanted to plant some roots and stay here in Summerville. We started looking for a house but we really weren't sure what we needed to do in order to buy one. My mother recommended Origin SC and I registered for the First Time Homebuyer workshop. The workshop was very helpful. We learned what was expected from us during the homebuying process and what we could expect from others during the process. We learned about home inspections, insurance, and financing. About a year ago we found a house that we liked, but our financing didn't work out. We took a year to rebuild our credit and raise our scores. We decided to be pre-approved again and as soon as we got the approval we called Brad and Debbie Kidd from Origin SC. I am so glad we called them. We couldn't have asked for better Realtors. They were able to negotiate an amazing deal and make sure that we would be comfortable in this house with our children. Brad and Debbie always answered the phone and responded to every text message (and there were a lot!). They answered every single question along the way and they were able to calm my nerves throughout the whole process. Not to mention, they were able to get us $1000 back at closing and a new roof! Homeownership provides a sense of stability, comfort and pride. Our children know that they don't have to move again and that this space is theirs. We have spent the last couple of weeks making it our own doing some aesthetic updates and we are absolutely in love. Our next adventure in our new home will be hosting our family for Thanksgiving. Thank you so much Brad and Debbie for everything that you have done. If anyone is thinking of purchasing a home they should definitely do it!

This could be YOU! Contact Origin SC today to start making your dreams of 
homeownership a reality.

Relief for Hurricane Florence
Hurricane Florence has had a dramatic impact in South Carolina and North Carolina and will continue to do so in its aftermath over the next week as floodwaters continue to rise. There are many ways to help, including volunteering and dropping donations at businesses. While donated items are wonderful, financial contributions are the most immediate and effective assistance you can provide.

To make a donation to help those affected by Hurricane Florence, click the link below. Your donation enables the Red Cross to prepare for, respond to, and help people recover from this disaster.
