Mortgage rates have risen from their pandemic-era lows.

That means getting the best rate possible is more important than ever. Even a slight difference can save you tens of thousands over the life of your loan. 💰

I’ve pulled together my top strategies to help you secure a rock-solid rate. Here are a few:

📈 Raise your credit score. Paying down debt and limiting credit applications can help.

❌ Don’t job-hop. Mortgage lenders prefer to see two years of steady paychecks.

💰 Increase your down payment. Some lenders offer lower rates with more upfront.

🛒 Shop around for the best rates. It’s always a good idea to get quotes from multiple lenders – and we’re happy to share our recommendations.

If you’re thinking about buying a home, reach out for all my tips and more details on how to land the best mortgage.

The Sonoma County Board of Supervisors will consider updates to the Vacation Rental Ordinance at its August 2 meeting. The proposed changes create a new vacation rental license permit program, performance standards, enforcement strategies, and permanent caps on vacation rentals in areas disproportionately impacted by vacation rental businesses.

Tourism plays an important role in Sonoma County’s culture and economy, however, an overconcentration of vacation rentals can negatively impact surrounding neighborhoods. Permit Sonoma is proposing to balance these interests with an updated vacation rental ordinance and program.

On May 5, 2022, the Sonoma County Planning Commission voted unanimously to recommend that the Board of Supervisors adopt Sonoma County Code amendments for vacation rentals. Changes recommended for adoption include:

Prohibiting vacation rentals in rural residential (R1-zoned) neighborhoods.
Creating the ability to designate areas where the Board of Supervisors can institute a 5 percent cap.
Creating a Vacation Rental License that will be required for operating a vacation rental.
Implementing more restrictive standards for structures, parking and occupancy.
Adding a Vacation Rental Program to the Local Coastal Plan.
Requiring a Vacation Rental License for operation.
Restricting licenses to properties owned by natural persons or trusts.
Limiting Vacation Rental Licenses to one per individual.
The updates to the ordinance reflect direction from the Board of Supervisors, Planning Commission and input from members of the public. Permit Sonoma staff held more than 20 meetings, including with every Municipal Advisory Council in the county, did outreach in conjunction with Sonoma County’s Housing Element Update, and held extensive meetings with stakeholder and industry groups.

Should you get preapproved OR prequalified for a mortgage?

Or both?

The two terms are often confused because they are so similar. But in reality, they are very different.

🏠 Getting prequalified for a mortgage doesn’t entail a credit check or official documentation. This process simply estimates how much you could qualify to borrow.

🏠 Getting preapproved, on the other hand, requires official documentation; verification of your income, assets, and debts; and a credit check. A preapproval concretely specifies how much you have been approved to borrow.

Getting preapproved gives you clarity on how much you can afford, which makes it important to do before you start your home search.

Once you find a home, it also assures the seller that you’re serious and financially able to buy their home.

Contact me if you’d like help getting preapproved for a mortgage. We can connect you with a trusted lending professional who can help you.

How do you write a winning offer in this market?

A high offer price gets attention—but it doesn’t guarantee you’ll get the home. Sellers consider many factors when choosing a buyer, including:

👉 Financing
👉 Deposit size
👉 Conditions
👉 Closing terms
👉 And even the reputation of the buyer’s real estate agent

It’s important that you account for all of these details when submitting an offer.
Reach out to me for more tips on how to stand out and accomplish your real estate goals.

Why are real estate agents talking about inflation?

Because I want to help you make money—not lose it.

Real estate prices across the board tend to rise along with, and even faster than, inflation. This is one of the reasons demand for real estate is soaring right now.

So instead of placing your money in the bank, where the value of your money will decrease with each year that inflation rises, I encourage you to put it in real estate.

Whether you’re a first-time buyer purchasing a primary residence or you want to invest in an income property, I can help.

Contact me today if you’re curious about how real estate can help you beat inflation.
