The first thing buyers ask me at an open house...

(Save this post if you're listing your home in the next 3-6 months)

❓How old is the roof, the HVAC and other major systems?

Having the answer to this \*and\* the dates of any other repairs, upgrades or replacements is \*invaluable\* to a buyer. Ask for my home maintenance tracker!

❓What are the fees and HOA restrictions?

❓How far am I to amenities and schools?

❓What are the annual property taxes and are there any tax abatements or exemptions?

❓What are the average monthly costs for utilities?

❓Were there any recent renovations or upgrades (e.g., kitchen, bathroom, flooring)

❓Why is the homeowner looking to sell? (e.g., relocation, downsizing, upgrading)

❓What are the local crime rates or planned developments in the area?

Having detailed information about these specifics builds trust between the buyer, seller, and agent, making for a more seamless sale!

DM me to grab my Homeowner's Maintenance Tracker to keep great records of your own home!

POV: You worked smarter, not harder to get you into your dream home.

How?

By leveraging the equity in your starter home.

HERE'S HOW IT WORKS:

✓ Equity is the difference between your home's current market value and what you still owe on your mortgage.

✓ As your home appreciates in value over time, and as you make mortgage payments, your equity grows.

Let's say you purchased a starter home in 2022 for $365,000.

Let's estimate that by 2026, due to market appreciation, your home's value will have increased to $425,000.

Assuming you've made consistent mortgage payments, let's say you've reduced your mortgage balance to $275,000.

EQUITY MATH:
$425,000 (current value) - $275,000 (mortgage balance) = $150,000 in home equity.

USING YOUR EQUITY:
1️⃣ Sell Your Current Home: The proceeds from the sale, minus any closing costs, will be your total equity.

2️⃣ Down Payment: A significant portion of your equity can be used as a down payment on your next home.

3️⃣ Closing Costs: The remaining equity can help cover closing costs associated with buying your new home, such as appraisal fees, title insurance, and attorney's fees.

💫 By strategically leveraging the equity in your starter home, you can increase your purchasing power and move closer to your forever home!

Will it ever be worth it? To walk away from your low interest rate?? It depends on circumstances, but these are the most common reasons I've seen past clients make the move:

- A growing family & the need for more space
- New job or a job transfer
- Remote work creating location flexibility
- Desire to be closer to family
- Desire for better quality of life (shorter commute, less traffic, close access to nature)
- Retiring or looking for less upkeep

If you're in this position, it might help to ask yourself:

✨ What benefits would a move bring to my life?
✨ What tangible and intangible value will it create?

The right decision isn't always obvious but talking to an agent who has insight into what's happening in your market can help you decide what's best for you.

I don't know who needs to hear this but...
You don't have to wait until you're ready to buy or sell to reach out to an agent

These are the questions you can ask me any time 👉
Drop me a DM if you've got a question - I'm here to be a resource to you!

Did you know the typical homeowner’s net worth is roughly 40x greater than a renter’s?

That’s because homeownership is the #1 way to build wealth in this country.

When you own a home, your net worth gets a boost as you pay down your mortgage and as home values climb.

Want to learn more about this great financial perk or the programs that could help you become a homeowner? DM me.

Ready to move on from your current house but don’t know if you should rent it out or sell it?

It’s a decision more homeowners are thinking about. Ultimately, the choice is a personal one and should align with your lifestyle goals and financial situation.

DM me and I can help walk you through the pros and cons of renting your house versus selling it and offer advice about the best fit for you.

Good news for buyers: more homes are hitting the market.

Data shows inventory is up 29.2% since last year – that’s the highest it’s been since 2019.

This gives you more choices for your move and is one of the big reasons we’re seeing more moderate price growth.

And with more homes for sale, it may be a bit easier to find something you like in your budget.

DM me today if you want to see what’s available at your price point.

11/11/2024

Through VA loans, Veterans can buy a home without needing to save up for a down payment. But the majority don’t even know this is even an option.
If you’re a Veteran, that means you could be much closer to homeownership than they think. Want to learn more? Reach out to a trusted lender to see if you’d qualify.

11/08/2024

Want to know the #1 task sellers struggle with? It’s setting the asking price.

If you sell without the expertise of a pro, you’re likely to price it too high. That’ll turn away buyers, cause it to sit on the market for longer, and ultimately, may require a price drop.

That’s not something you want to happen.

Remember, if the price isn’t compelling, it isn’t selling. So, let’s work together to find the pricing sweet spot.

11/07/2024

Here’s a powerful look at the net worth gap between homeowners and renters.

The latest data shows homeowners, on average, have nearly 40 times the net worth of renters.

That’s because owning a home helps build wealth over time thanks to rising home values and growing equity.

Let’s chat so I can help you see the financial benefits of buying instead of renting. And if homeownership feels out of reach right now, I can help you explore programs that can help too.

11/06/2024

While the Federal Reserve doesn’t set mortgage rates, rates can be influenced by the Fed’s monetary policy. And all eyes are on their next move.

One of the things they’re looking at is the direction of inflation.

Since inflation has come down over the past year and is holding pretty steady right now, odds look good that they’ll continue to cut the Federal Funds Rate. And that should set the stage for mortgage rates to follow in the months ahead.

11/05/2024

Right now, there are a lot of factors that are creating uncertainty in the housing market – and that uncertainty adds volatility.

From the latest economic and unemployment reports to the decisions coming out of the Fed, and the Presidential election – it all has an impact.

But don’t let the volatility distract you from the bigger picture. I’ll make sure you know what’s happening, how it’ll impact the housing market, and, most importantly, what it means for you.

11/01/2024

Are you asking how the upcoming election is going to impact the housing market? Here are your answers.

Based on historical data, mortgage rates tend to decrease leading up to an election, while home prices and sales increase the year after the election.

DM me if you want more information.

Does the thought of buying or selling a home in today’s market make you feel a bit nervous? If so, you need to talk to an agent.

You shouldn’t have to feel worried or stressed about making a move – you should feel excited.

And with the right agent by your side, the process can be smooth, and even enjoyable. Let’s talk about how I can help your move be a confident one.
