If you’ve been waiting for a sign to buy your first home… This is it.
This amazing news is what so many people have been waiting for! It’s now more affordable to pay for your monthly mortgage.
Swipe for all the details on what’s changed in the real estate industry.
What does this change mean for you as a homeowner-to-be?
Basically, your mortgage payment will be less now. Instead of having to pay 0.85% for private mortgage insurance (what you have to pay if you have a down payment under 20%), rates are now set to 0.55% which is a pretty big decrease.
Now you can get into a home with a low down payment and a lower monthly payment. By working with a great real estate agent and taking advantage of these opportunities, you can become a homeowner affordably!
Ready to see how this little change can turn you into a homeowner? Send me a DM and let’s talk!

Ever wondered what affects the size of your down payment can have? Your down payment can have a huge impact on buying a home and the way you pay for it.
Choosing how much money to put into a down payment is an important decision you need to make before you start your home buying journey.
While a larger down payment brings benefits of a lower interest rate and a lower monthly payment, a smaller down payment can get you into a home more quickly, which has benefits of its own such as building equity sooner.
Want to know what the right down payment size is for you? Let’s talk about it! Send me a DM and we’ll grab a coffee and chat.

If you want to succeed in real estate… waiting the market out is not the best game plan.
You never know what’s going to happen with the real estate market. In the next few years, we could see interest rates continue to rise and home values level off. Or we could see a drop in interest rates and another super competitive market where home values skyrocket again.
No one can predict the real estate market, which means that waiting out the market is really just wasting your time and money renting.
If you’re ready to buy a home now, why put it off for years–and miss opportunities in the meantime–while you’re banking on a maybe?
Play the market like an investor: stay aware of the opportunities available to you and work with experts in the field to be prepared to take those opportunities.

Time for a little mindset reframe. If you’ve been putting off your dreams because…
- You think you won’t be successful
- You think it’s too late in the game to get into real estate
- You feel like you’ve tried before, so there’s no point in trying again
Then you need to remember that success doesn’t have a specific recipe. Putting your dreams off will ensure that they never happen.
But if you start late, or start over, or start even though you’re unsure, or hit a failure in the road, you're taking action–and taking action means that you can succeed.
Success is out there waiting for you. You just have to take the first step to get there.
What small step are you going to take to get closer to your dreams today? Let me know in the comments so I can cheer you on!

This should be the easiest would you rather EVER.
If you’re ready to build your wealth and make smart financial decisions–buying a home is the right way to go.
Rather than having that monthly rent check go directly into your landlord’s pocket, owning a home allows you to build equity and create wealth.

This reality check is hard to hear, but better to hear it now than in 5, 10, or 15 years.
Renting has $0 return on investment. The money you pay every month just disappears into your landlord’s pocket, and you have nothing to show for it when you move on from the rental.
That’s not the case when it comes to real estate.
When you own a property and pay a mortgage, you get the money you pay into the mortgage back when you sell the home–usually with a little extra because real estate appreciates in value. That’s the magic of equity!

Show buyers your home’s potential with these clever staging tips!
With these tips, you’ll make your home seem like it has all the space your potential buyers need for their life.
All you have to do is declutter the space, take out that extra furniture that might break up the flow of traffic, and bring in more lighting. Adding lamps or a mirror across from a window can reflect more light into the room and brighten those dark corners.
Even if you’re not selling right now, try out these tips and see how much lighter and brighter your rooms feel.
P.S. Make sure to save this post so you have these staging tips handy!

Making one of these mistakes before buying a home is a quick way to make buying a home way more difficult than it needs to be.
Any of these mistakes are a major RED FLAG for lenders–and they hurt your chances of qualifying for a mortgage. Without a mortgage, you probably can’t buy a home.
Getting a new loan or even co-signing on a new loan impacts your credit score. It’s the same story for being late on a credit card or a loan payment.
These things seem like no big deal at the time, but they end up on your credit report and can take months to build back.
Lenders also pay very close attention to employment. Any big changes to your job before buying a home can make it harder to qualify.

The key is to start small and live in the property while you fix it up and make it an amazing place to live. Then, you buy another home and rent out the first. Boom, your first investment property just like that!
The best part about starting your real estate investment journey like this is that you can use the income from your rental to pay your new house’s mortgage, building your savings up so you can repeat the process and develop a wealth-generating portfolio.
When you start your journey by playing it smart, and build wealth, future you will thank you!
