Affordability right now is a mixed bag, higher rates on one side, but better inventory and less competition on the other. The key is knowing how the numbers work for your situation.

Today is not just about remembrance. It is about reflection, gratitude, and honoring those who gave their lives in service to something bigger than themselves. We remember them with respect and thankful hearts.

The fact that the first alarm clock only went off at 4 a.m. tells me two things: someone was wildly ambitious… and someone else definitely lost a friendship over testing it 😅☕
