Did you know our job history plays a big part in a mortgage application? Lenders want to know not only how much money you make, but also how likely it is that you’ll continue to make that amount of money. And many are paying more attention to your current employment and how often you are switching between jobs.

Are you worried about selling your older home with new construction popping up everywhere? Have no fear according to estimates about 43% of the nation’s 136 million housing units were built between 1970 and 1999.
Here are some tips to selling an older home.
➡️ Prove you’ve kept up with the maintenance
Any buyer wants to know they’re not inheriting a maintenance headache — and with an older home, that’s a top concern. You may want to hire a home inspector or other specialist before listing so that you can get ahead of any issues that could be deal-breakers.
➡️ Highlight the space you get for the money
Compared to new construction, an older home might have more square footage or a larger lot size, proving more desirable for buyers. If you have a deck, garden, patio, or porch, that’s livable space to promote, right down to the curb appeal. How about a striking view from the living room? That’s a standout focal point to underscore for buyers.
