My home buying experience - Live for a Sunny Day

    Before I even delve into my first time home buying experience, I would like to make light on what a 'Sunny Day' is.
    A Sunny Day is that feel good worry-free feeling you have when you look at your bank account and smile with confidence that you have control of your finances and money. It's when day dreaming about buying that beach house or investment home becomes a reality. A Sunny Day is now.
    Unlike saving for a rainy day, which is still important, everyone should be able to live for a Sunny Day. It doesn't matter what your Sunny Day is to you, it matters that you have SunTrust behind you every step of the way supporting you.
    SunTrust's Resource Center has all the advice, tricks, tips and tools you will ever need to keep you on the right track so you can live your Sunny Day.
    My Sunny Day was signing that thick stack of papers with my husband that would lead us to buying our first home. Now that I look back on that, I wish I had known about the Resource Center SunTrust offers. I would have gone through less stress and endless internet searching for all of my questions when all the answers were right there!


    I wish I lived for a Sunny Day and used the resources that SunTrust Bank has to offer. Buying your first home, or any home for that matter is stressful. When it's your first, you don't really know what to do, what questions you should ask, what to look for...you just don't know. We didn't! We looked at numerous homes, going back and forth with sellers, and put our Realtor through the ringer! We were pre-approved with our great credit scores that we worked YEARS on.

    After months of looking at houses and getting turned down on our offers, we found the perfect house!! As soon as we walked in, we both looked at eachother, smiled and said "This is the one!". The square footage was perfect, the price was perfect, and there was a beautiful back yard with a brand new deck! Yes!! As soon as this house went up on the market, we were the first ones to look at it and put in an offer....and just like that, we were accepted and were new homeowners!! It was a real milestone in our life and I wouldn't change anything about it! Well, maybe one thing...we would have used the Resource Center!
