From choosing an agent who uses your name to understanding paperwork and picking a place that feels safe.
In your first conversation, tell the agent how you want to be addressed in person, in email and in text. Ask what information is required on contracts and loan documents so there are no surprises. A thoughtful agent will already have an answer.
Mortgage applications, title documents and some closing forms use legal names and may match your credit file. Your agent and lender can explain which documents need which names and how to keep conversation and correspondence in the name you use.
Think about the things that make daily life easier: clinics and providers you trust, a community center, a neighborhood where you can run errands without a second thought. Our city guides list community venues from public map data, and your agent can tell you more from experience.
You control what appears on your profile and in any intro request. On GayMoves, agents see only what you choose to include. Ask each agent how they store and share personal details, and walk away from anyone who is vague.
Sometimes. Loan and title documents often require it. Your agent can explain which forms need it and use your chosen name everywhere else.
