INSPECTION DAY !!
I was able to get this property for my clients for
$25,000 less than the original price, from $755,000
we are in escrow $730,000.
Today I want to talk about the importance of getting the
property you are buying inspected, even if is a Brand NEW ONE
You have no idea what have I seen even on Brand New Homes.
that is why the inspection is very important, you don't know the property,
I don't know the property, so if we find a big problem on it, you can always walk away
and get your Deposit Back, and if there is minor stuff, we can always ask the seller to fix them.

Mortgage rates have been a little volatile lately. And if that’s made you hesitate, you’re not alone.

But here’s the part most people aren’t talking about:

Even now, rates are still lower than they were during the last 3 Spring seasons.

So, while things may feel a bit uncertain, the opportunity to buy hasn’t disappeared.

Want to talk through your options and check how the numbers could look at today’s rates? Let’s connect.

Stay or Sell? How To Make the Right Call as You Age

There’s no one-size-fits-all answer here.

Some people stay and make updates. Others move to simplify things. Either can be the right choice. The goal isn’t to pick one today. It’s to understand your options early, so when the time comes, you feel confident instead of rushed.

And if you ever want a sounding board to think through what the future could look like for you, let’s connect.

At some point, as you start thinking about the years ahead, this question tends to come up...

If you’re worried the number of homes for sale is rising out of control...

You think prices are about to crash...

Or you’re holding off because you think rates are about to drop dramatically...

Here’s what I want you to know.

While you may be hearing those things online, the data doesn’t back any of that up.

So, if you’re reading something or you see a post online that makes you second guess if you should move right now, don’t just take it at face value. DM me.

I’ll tell you what the data really says about the housing market today, so you can make a decision about your timeline that’s based on fact, not fear.

3 Things That Are Not Going To Happen in Today's Housing Market

Online posts are going to make things sound worse than they are. If you want a true, data-bound look at what’s really happening in today’s market, lean on a real estate agent.

Let’s connect so you have someone to separate fact from fiction today.

There’s a lot of uncertainty right now and that’s leading to some dramatic headlines.

Did you try to buy a home last year and feel stuck?

Maybe there just weren’t enough options. Or, nothing really fit what you were looking for.

That’s starting to change.

There are now nearly 2x as many new listings hitting the market compared to a few months ago. Those are homes that were just put up for sale.

That means more fresh options and a better chance of finding the house that actually works for you.

If you’re curious what’s out there in our area right now, let’s take a look together.

Not every house is selling for over asking anymore.

In fact, it’s down to about 1 in 4 homes today, compared to nearly half in 2021.

And that's a good sign for buyers. It means the market is getting back to normal.

Now, this is going to vary by area. But overall, it means you may find sellers with more wiggle room on their price today. And in a lot of places, negotiation is back on the table.

Let’s make the most of it.
