🏡 New on the blog: With more homes on the market and buyers feeling the pressure of affordability, presentation is no longer optional, it’s essential. ✨

Buying power is not just about the list price. A change in interest rates can make a noticeable difference in the monthly payment, even on the same $800,000 home.

This side-by-side look shows how that plays out with 20%, 10%, and 5% down on a 30-year fixed mortgage.
These examples reflect principal and interest only (taxes, insurance, HOA, and mortgage insurance are not included), and are meant to help show how rate and down payment work together.

If you want help running the numbers for your price point and down payment, send me a message!

💡Better lighting isn’t complicated, just look at lumens (brightness) & Kelvin (warmth), then build the room with ambient, task, & accent lights.

Most of the time, a 2700K dimmable bulb in the 800–1100 lumen range is the easiest upgrade.

Which room are you fixing first?
