Foreclosure filings may be rising, but they're still low. And the equity most homeowners are sitting on today is a key reason this looks nothing like 2008.

You've probably seen the headlines saying, "foreclosures are on the rise,” and maybe your mind jumped straight to 2008.

Did you know nearly 1 in 3 home purchases today involves co-buyers?

That's right, more and more first-time buyers are teaming up with friends, siblings, or unmarried partners to make homeownership happen.

And honestly? It makes a lot of sense given how tough affordability can still be for first-time buyers.

Combining incomes means a bigger down payment, better loan qualification, and lower monthly costs for everyone involved.

If you've been feeling priced out, co-buying might be the move you haven't considered yet. Drop your questions in the comments. I'd love to help you explore your options.

Why do some homes sell fast. While others sit?

It’s not just the market.

Right now, the typical home is still going under contract in about 19 days – and some in as little as a week.

So, homes are still selling. Just not all of them. Some are even selling quickly.

The difference? Buyers are more selective than they’ve been in years. They’re paying attention to price, condition, and how a home shows online before they ever step inside.

That means the homes that feel move-in ready and priced right are still getting strong interest, even now. But the homes that aren’t? They sit.

If you’re thinking about selling, the question isn’t just “will it sell?” It’s “how will it stack up?”

Want to make sure yours stands out? DM me and I’ll walk you through what I’d do if I were you.
