If you want to move by the end of the year…here’s when you need to reach out to your agent.

A lot of people think that finding the house is the part that takes the most time, but in most cases it happens faster than you expect.

Closing alone takes around 30 to 45 days once you’re under contract. Add the time to actually find the right home, plus getting your financing lined up before you start, and “by the holidays” means starting the conversation now, not in October.

Reaching out early doesn’t lock you into anything. It just means when you find the one, you’re ready to move on it instead of scrambling.

If a move by year-end is even a maybe, let’s talk.

Online search engines are great for browsing…for fun.

But it won’t tell you the stuff that actually protects you, the read on the sellers, the reason a price is what it is, when to move and when to wait.

That’s what I’m here for.

Show me the listings you’ve been saving and let’s talk about what’s really going on.

The lock-in effect is real.

But it doesn’t have to keep you from moving on if your current house isn’t serving you anymore.

While you wait for rates to drop, prices are rising and competition is slowly and steadily increasing.

Here’s some quick, back-of-the-napkin math to put it in perspective.

➡️ Buy now at $500,000 at a 6.5% rate with 20% down, and your payment lands around $2,528/mo.

➡️ Wait, and buy later at $515,000 at a 6.25% rate with 20% down? That payment is about $2,537/mo.

A future drop in rates doesn’t automatically make a home more affordable if prices keep climbing. Waiting can mean you pay more and build less equity over time.

If you’ve been sitting on the fence because of your rate, talk to a lender to run your actual numbers, not the back-of-the-napkin version.

You might have more room than you think. Send me a message if you’re ready to have a conversation.
