You know that feeling when you're getting ready to list your home and start getting overwhelmed about all the little updates you think you *must* do before putting it on the market?

Let me share some good news – some things don't necessarily need updating! It all depends on your home.

I recently worked with a client who assumed her kitchen needed a mid-range renovation before selling. After evaluating their home, we realized that it wasn't crucial to update the kitchen. The home had tons of character and charm, and prospective buyers would likely see the potential and even appreciate the opportunity to customize.

In situations like these, it's essential to lean on the expertise of your real estate agent. I’m here to assess the market, the neighborhood, and the current demand to help you determine what's critical to attract buyers and what's not so important.

From my experience, it varies from house to house, but I always work to ensure your home is shown in its best light while staying within a reasonable budget.

What questions do you have about prepping your home for sale, or what updates you've thought were essential?

Leave a comment or message me, and let's connect to find out what's best for your home!

Wondering how financially prepared you are for owning a home?

Before working in real estate, I didn't understand all the lingo. Things like “debt-to-income ratio (DTI)” would rattle around in my head. But let me tell you, now I know that understanding your DTI is like having a secret weapon in your home-owning journey.

Simply put, your DTI is the percentage of your gross monthly income that goes to paying your monthly debt payments. It's a tool that lenders use to evaluate how much additional debt you can handle.

Understandably, calculating your own DTI might sound like a daunting task. That's why I encourage you to check out my comprehensive 90 Days to Homeowner guide. You'll find a handy DTI calculator to take the guesswork out of your calculation.

For now, here are a few DTI thresholds to know:

• Over 50%: You have a high level of debt. Consequently, lenders might hesitate to approve a mortgage loan because adding more debt to your plate is risky.

• 43% to 50%: This is also a high debt level, but you may be able to make it work. You should, however, strive for a lower ratio for better rates and financial security.

• 36% to 41%: Now you're on your way. With a DTI in this range, you've got a good balance between debt and income, and lenders are more likely to give you a thumbs-up for a loan.

• Below 36%: Congrats! You're in the gold standard zone. With debt levels hovering here, you'll have access to new loans or lines of credit.

If you have any questions or want a copy of my 90 Days to Homeowner (with DTI calc), comment below or message me. I’m here to help however I can.

As a result of multiple efforts by the Fed to control inflation, interest rates climbed sharply last year, with the average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage reaching 7.83% by October 2023. What’s in store for 2024? Keep Reading for the latest!

The December Dip
You saw in mid December that mortgage rates dropped below 7% for the first time since August 2023. This is a good sign heading into 2024.

Rate Outlook: Decreasing
While some experts predict rates will increase in early 2024, most believe they will decrease as the year progresses, possibly falling into the mid-os by year-end.

Economic Factors Influence
This trend highly depends on economic factors, including Federal Reserve policies, the relationship between various interest rates, and other economic indicators like unemployment and inflation rates.

Staying Informed
The future isn't set in stone, but staying informed about potential changes can make all the difference. Whether you're buying, selling, or just browsing, I'm here to guide you every step of the way.

Do THIS to sell your home for 20% more.

Staging. Here's why.

Staging goes beyond mere aesthetics. It's about creating an experience that allows buyers to envision their lives unfolding within the walls of your home.

In a market where first impressions are everything, a well-staged home stands out, inviting and compelling.

Need more?

Data from the International Association of Home Staging Professionals reveals that staged homes not only sell three to 30 times faster than non-staged ones, but they also fetch higher prices – often 20% more than expected.

And the best part? The investment in staging usually costs less than the first price drop you might have to make if your home lingers on the market. It's a smart, strategic move with proven results.

Thinking about selling your home? Let's discuss how staging can transform your selling experience from ordinary to extraordinary. Message me or comment below, and I’ll be in touch.

Agents see (and help clients avoid) a lot of mistakes over the course of their career — and because of this, they’re a great source of insight and wisdom. The problem is, it’s often difficult to prove many of the things they know are true or not. Unfortunately, most people don’t sell a house...

The real cost of selling your home in 2024? Keep reading for my estimate...

Agent commissions: around 6%
Closing costs: about 2%
necessary repairs: approximately 1%
staging: another 1%
costs of moving: around 1%

In total, selling your home this year may amount to roughly 10-12% of the sale price.

Keep in mind these costs are all a part of attracting the best offers and expediting the sale of your property. And the good news? I'm here to guide you every step of the way, ensuring you spend where you need to and save where you don’t.
