Big shift in lending just happened.

The Federal Housing Finance Agency and Federal Housing Administration opened things up with new credit models like VantageScore 4.0 and FICO 10T.

Here’s what that really means…

More people can qualify.

If you’ve been
• Renting and paying on time
• Told “you’re close, but not quite there”
• Or flat out denied before

It’s worth taking another look.

This doesn’t mean everybody gets approved…
but it does mean they’re not just looking at one number anymore.

I’m already seeing deals that would’ve been a no before…
now they’re real conversations.

If you’ve been thinking about buying, don’t count yourself out.

Things just changed.

If you want to see where you stand, reach out… we’ll take a look.

Houston update.

30-year mortgage rates are sitting around 6.0% right now — lowest level we’ve seen in over three years.

No, buyers aren’t rushing the gates.
Yes, inventory and confidence still matter.

But let’s talk numbers.

6% changes the monthly payment conversation compared to 2025.
Buying power improves.
Negotiation leverage still exists.

This isn’t a frenzy market.
It’s a thinking market.

If you’ve been on the sidelines waiting for it to make more sense — this is where the math starts shifting.

DM me “PAYMENT” and I’ll run real numbers for your price range.

DM me “VALUE” if you’re curious what this shift means for your home.
