Real Estate With Leatrice

Let's be honest: if you've been renting for 2+ years and still feel "not ready," you're not protecting yourself.

You're funding someone else's mortgage.

I worked with a couple paying $1,400/month in rent. Four years. $67,200 gone with nothing to show for it.

We found them a $210K home. Monthly payment? $1,450.

Same money, but in four years, they'll have $30-40K in equity instead of zero.

You don't need perfect credit or a huge down payment. You need a strategy and someone who'll tell you the truth.

Stop renting your future. Let's build your wealth instead.

The song is carefree. The deadline is not.

30 days. PCS orders. VA loan. Done.

Deck. Bathroom. Kitchen counter. Wherever it takes.

I don't "try." I close.

PCSing to Seymour Johnson? I'm your agent.

Let’s talk about why those 'free' upgrades usually mean you're overpaying on the back end:

👷🏼♂️ Builder agents work for the builder, not you. Their job is to protect the builder's bottom line, full stop.

👷🏽♀️ "Free" upgrades are often baked into an inflated base price, so you're financing them into your mortgage for 30 years.

👷🏾♂️Builders use upgrade packages to distract buyers from negotiating what actually matters: rate buydowns, closing cost contributions, and price reductions.

How we negotiate real incentives instead:

✅ We push for permanent rate buydowns first. A 1% rate reduction saves more over 30 years than any countertop upgrade ever will.

✅ Closing cost contributions are cash in your pocket at the table. We negotiate those before we ever talk about finishes.

✅ We come in with comps. Builders hate it, but it works, and it shifts the conversation from "pick your package" to "justify your price."
