Why consider multigenerational living?

It's a fantastic way to share community, responsibilities, and finances. 🏡

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 By living together, families can support each other in countless ways, from childcare to eldercare, while pooling resources to create a more stable and enriching home environment.

From a lending perspective, I can often offer specialized loan products that accommodate larger, multi-income households. 🤗

🏘️ This not only changes your preapproval amount but can expand the types of homes you may be able to consider. Multigenerational homes tend to have higher stability and lower default rates, as multiple family members contribute to the mortgage payments. 💰

🫱🏿‍🫲🏾 It's not just a living arrangement; it's a way of creating a robust support system.

🔑 When it comes to securing a mortgage, understanding the difference between prequalification and preapproval is crucial.

Prequalification gives you an estimate of how much you can borrow based on self-reported financial info, and it’s quick and free! 🏠

But if you want to be a competitive buyer, preapproval is the way to go! 💪 It involves a thorough review of your financial situation and gives you a conditional commitment for a specific loan amount. 📝💵

Homeownership – a dream for many, yet a challenging reality for some. Let's talk about something real: homeownership rates are a significant 20% lower for individuals identifying as le***an, gay, bisexual, transgender, and q***r (LGBTQIA+) compared to those who identify as straight and cisgender. 🏳️‍🌈🏠 Why?

The systemic barriers are numerous. The cost of living for LGBTQIA+ individuals is disproportionately higher, primarily because they often reside in states offering more social and policy protections, which tend to be more expensive.

Economic factors play a crucial role too, with 61% of unmarried transgender or nonbinary individuals earning less than $50,000 a year. 😔 Additionally, the intersectionality of being LGBTQIA+ and a person of color presents a double disadvantage when it comes to homeownership access.

But remember, change is in our hands! 🌈👊

VOTE. Vote in local and state elections for politicians that protect the LGBTQIA+ community. Your vote has power. 🗳️

STAND UP. If you see discrimination happening, be courageous and call it out. Remember, silence is complicity. 🙌

PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS. If you have the means, consider donating to organizations that are tirelessly working to close this gap. Every dollar can make a difference. 💰

Who is Team Noble? A q***r & women-run mortgage team with a combined 60+ years of industry experience. We are dedicated to breaking down these barriers to homeownership for our LGBTQIA+ community. 🏳️‍🌈🏘️

🤔 Is it still worth it to buy a home even when rates feel high?

👉 There are many factors, including your unique situation, but here’s my two cents...

Every year, home prices continue to rise 📈 presenting homeowners with the unique opportunity to build considerable equity. Owning real estate is one of the most stable investments one can make.

This equity💰that is built forms a robust financial foundation that provides not only security but also potential for significant growth.

Owning a house brings with it a sense of permanence, making it more than just a property but a home 💞 But it doesn’t stop there…

It’s also a stepping stone towards building future wealth 💪 Utilizing your equity to secure other investments or credit is a huge asset to property owners.

At the end of the day, rates will continue to be a moving target 🎯 that you can watch and adjust over the life of your loan 👌

So what do you think, is property ownership the right decision for you? If you are not sure, it’s my job to help you find out what it would take. Call me or send me a DM if you are interested in finding out how close you are to qualifying for a home loan.📲

If you’re not there yet, I will help you create a path that can get you there. 🗺️

Looking to sell this year? 🏠

The Spring market is the sweet spot you’ve been waiting for. 🌷

The number of homes for sale and new listings activity continues to improve compared to last year. 📈 However, the inventory of homes for sale still has a long journey back to pre-pandemic levels. 🔄

Two big reasons why this Spring is looking good for sellers:

- Thanks to an uptick in inventory over the last year, you’ve got more options as you search for your next home. 🏡
- There are still fewer homes for sale than there would normally be. Meaning 👉 Your house should stand out and get a lot of buyer attention. 👀

If you plan to sell, I can help you prepare all of your options for your next transition. Reach out when you’re ready! 📞

🚨Important!🚨
We are very impressed by the work REPAIR is doing by encouraging white individuals involved in real estate to begin or continue an anti-racist path, fostering an environment for BIPOC individuals to enter and thrive in the real estate industry, and raising funds for BIPOC community members to build and retain generational wealth through homeownership.

Did you know? 🤔 About 45% of homes in the US don’t have a mortgage on them. The homeowner actually owns the property free and clear. When these homes come up for sale, there’s actually an opportunity for buyers to ask the seller to offer financing for them. 🏡💰

Why would a seller consider this? 🤷‍♂️ From a tax standpoint, it might be better for the seller to receive a monthly payment from offering financing versus a large lump sum of cash when they sell. Could this be the right move for you? 💡

I hear so much confusion around…

…whether or not you need a preapproval to start searching for homes. So, is it really necessary? 💭

Let's set the record straight. 📝 A preapproval is definitely a key step in the home-buying process. It's your ticket to understanding how much you can afford and shows sellers you're a serious buyer.

So, before you start exploring that dream neighborhood, make sure you have your preapproval in hand. It's your home-buying compass, guiding you toward homes that are right within your reach. 👌

And hey, if you found this information helpful, don't keep it to yourself. Share this with a friend who could use some clarity on their home-buying journey! 👥

That’s a wrap on March!

Spring is finally here and with that comes long walks with our pups and the bits of Portland sunshine we have been craving so much.

We had so many fun times connecting with our clients and seeing some of our Realtor pals, soaked in the sunshine at every opportunity, and enjoyed yummy food. The highlight was of course the Indian Wells Tennis Tournament and March madness 🎾🏀🤗

Every year during Women’s History Month, I can’t help but ruminate on how things have changed for us in such a short amount of time. It wasn’t until 1900 that every state had a law granting women the right to own property. Women have made major strides in homeownership, breaking through societal norms and barriers.

Today more women than ever hold the 🔑 to their own homes. The trend is clear: women are claiming their space in the real estate market. The current rate of women's homeownership is at an all-time high! 🎉👏 I’m so happy to celebrate and support women making a place for themselves in the world of homeownership.

💭 Taking time to reflect on my first home-buying experience.

I bought my first house without a real estate agent and I found the house on my own. Although the purchase was successful, there are three crucial things I WISH I had known before I bought that home ⬇️

First up, the power of negotiation 💪 I unknowingly paid full price without exploring my options. I did NO negotiations. I didn’t realize I had that ability, especially at a time when you could negotiate.

Second, a knowledgeable guide for the home inspection would have spared me unnecessary stress. I literally found a random home inspector in the yellow pages. I think they did a good job, but I had no one to walk me through what was and was not important. A home inspector's job is to tell you everything wrong with the home. So I ended up in tears thinking I was buying a crappy house (I wasn’t).

And lastly, understanding earnest money 💸 I wish I had someone to dispel the misconception that it meant an all-or-nothing commitment. I thought my earnest money was at risk, that I needed to buy the house or I would lose my earnest money…despite how I was feeling after that home inspection.

Drop one thing you wish you knew before buying a home in the comments! 👇👇

🏠 Unlock the power of home equity! 🗝️💰

Did you know that you can leverage your home's value to achieve your goals? 🏡💪 Home equity is simply the difference between your home's value and your current mortgage balance. Let's say your home is worth $500,000 and you owe $300,000 on your mortgage. That means you have $200,000 in equity! 🤩💸

But here's the exciting part: with a Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC), you can access that equity and use it for anything you want! Whether it's renovating your home, paying for education, or even purchasing your next dream home, the possibilities are endless. 🌟

I often hear from folks who need to sell in order to buy and this is a great option to achieve this. Reach out to learn more about HELOCs and how they can create opportunities for you! 🔓✨

I recently heard this terrible mortgage advice 😵 that someone had given my client...⁠

Someone told them to go for a 15-year mortgage so they would pay less in interest and have it paid off sooner. Here’s how I broke it down for them 👇️⁠

🚫 The 15-year mortgage is not your best option as a first-time homebuyer. Here's why: Other generations enjoyed huge rate benefits for 15 year mortgages, but that's not the case now. So instead of getting a rate benefit, you'll end up with higher mortgage payments for the next 15 years. 💸💔⁠

🤔 Just think about it: Paying off your loan over 15 years instead of 30 means those payments will be significantly higher. And let's be honest, high mortgage payments can be risky if anything changes in your life. ⚠️⁠

💡 In my opinion, the 30-year mortgage is the way to go. You'll have lower monthly payments, and if you want to pay off your mortgage sooner, you can always make extra payments each month. It's all about flexibility! 💪💰⁠

For my house hunters 🏡 considering purchasing a home with a basement or detached ADU, we can actually use that projected rental income to increase your buying power. ⁠

Not only do you have the added benefit of purchasing a home you otherwise wouldn’t have been able to, but you have space you can rent, and have your tenant's contributions going to your mortgage. Win-win! 💪⁠

What was the question I was asked the most this week? 🥁 Drumroll please….. What documents are needed for a preapproval? 📄

✨ 🔑 The key to a smooth preapproval process is gathering your documentation, my friends! 🤝

But don't worry, it's not too intense. All you really need are these three areas covered: income, assets, and credit.⁠

💰 So gather those pay stubs, bank statements, tax returns and we’ll do the rest. You'll be one step closer to your preapproval for your dream home or refinance! 🏡⁠
