Buying a home is getting more affordable, and this graph helps explain why.

It shows how much of a household’s income typically goes toward buying a home. As a general rule, spending 30% or less of your income on housing is considered affordable.

For the last couple of years, the math was still well above that threshold. But lately, things have been getting better thanks to a mix of lower mortgage rates, slower home price growth, and rising wages.

While affordability isn't going to snap back overnight, the trend is finally moving in the right direction.

If you want to talk through what this means for your buying power, send me a message and let’s break it down.

You’ve been waiting for mortgage rates to drop – and it’s happening.

Mortgage rates are in the lowest range they’ve been in nearly 3 years. And they’re expected to stay in this vicinity for the rest of 2026. That’s a big deal.
That means affordability is going to start to feel different.

The door just opened. Lower payments. Better affordability. More buying power.

If buying didn’t make sense for you before, it might now. Take this as your sign it's time to talk to a lender and take another look at your numbers.

Mortgage rates dropping to a 3-year low isn’t just a headline.

For many buyers, where rates are now could be the difference between watching from the sidelines and finally getting the keys to their next home.

If you’ve been waiting for a sign to re-run your numbers and see what’s possible now, this is it.

Let’s take a look at what today’s rates mean for your budget and your options.

If you’re one of the thousands of homebuyers waiting for rates to fall, you should know it’s already happening.

Home affordability is the best it’s been in 4 years. And that's making a difference for buyers. Have you re-run the math yet to see how this changes your numbers?

Your next home doesn’t need to check every box on your wish list. It just needs to check the right ones.

Even though affordability is improving, it’s still tight for many buyers. And the people who are moving right now are realizing one thing can make the process a whole lot easier: a flexible wish list.

Cotality found 70% of buyers ended up compromising on one or more wish list item.
And for those buyers, that simple shift opened up more homes that fit both their needs and their budget.

When’s the last time you took a look at your wish list and sorted it into what's truly a must-have and what's a nice perk?

If you want help or want an expert’s insights on what to prioritize in our local market, DM me.

A little flexibility can open up a lot more opportunity.

While you’ve been out and about living your life, your house has been quietly building your wealth in the background.

And that hidden wealth is called equity. When prices go up over time and as you pay your mortgage, that number climbs.

According to the latest data, the average homeowner has around $302K in equity right now. That’s 6 figures you could be sitting on without even realizing it.

When was the last time you had a professional show you what your home is actually worth, and how much equity you likely have?

DM me and we’ll run your personalized numbers, so you know exactly what you’re working with. It might be exactly what you need to fuel your next move…
