I know you’ve been seeing a lot of posts about mortgage rates going up 📈

So here’s one that actually helps make sense of it.

I updated this FHA buyer guide using a 7.5% interest rate so you can see what different monthly payments may buy in Hampton + Newport News right now.

A few things to remember:

✅ First-time buyers may qualify for grants/down-payment assistance
✅ VA buyers may have 0% down options
✅ We can often negotiate seller-paid closing costs, regardless of loan type

Higher rates can affect buying power, but they don’t automatically mean buying is off the table.

You can’t trust everything you see on social media. 😂📱
But if y’all have been following me for a while, you should know by now there are two pretty important things you can trust me with: your biggest days and your biggest moves. 💍🏡
From weddings to real estate transactions, I take both seriously and show up ready to handle business. 🎧🤝🏽🔑

🚨 Mortgage rates are back around 7%.

Sellers: this is NOT the time to overprice and “test the market.”

Buyers: higher rates = fewer people competing against you.

If the numbers work and you find the right house, don’t let scary headlines make the decision for you.

You may be closer to buying a home than you think.

If you’re looking in Hampton or Newport News, I put together this 2026 FHA buyer guide to show how monthly payment, home price, and upfront cash can connect in our local market.

I live and work here on the Peninsula, so this is based on what buyers are actually seeing in Hampton and Newport News — not just national averages.

One important note: don’t let the “cash to have saved” column discourage you.

If you’re a first-time homebuyer, there are grants and down-payment assistance programs you may qualify for that can reduce how much you need out of pocket.

If you qualify for a VA loan, your numbers may look even better because eligible VA buyers can potentially purchase with 0% down.

And regardless of loan type, we can often structure offers that request seller-paid closing cost assistance, subject to the seller agreeing and your loan program’s limits.

This chart is a starting point, not a loan quote. Your actual payment and buying power will depend on your credit, income, debts, taxes, insurance, interest rate, and loan program.

If you want to know what your numbers look like, I’m happy to help you put together a realistic game plan.
