✨ Just Closed! ✨
31 Simsbury Manor Drive, Simsbury, CT

This home went from listed to under contract in just 5 days, and now, only 23 days later, we’ve officially closed! I’m thrilled for my sellers as they embark on an exciting new journey! I couldn’t have asked for a better co-broke to help her buyers get to finish line so smoothly!

Helping my clients reach their goals is what drives me, and it’s truly special to share in this process with them. Closing days are always bittersweet—it’s been a lot of visits, plans, and laughs to get to the finish line. Congratulations to my incredible clients on this fantastic sale! 🏡💫

You might see headlines or social media posts this week talking about rate cuts. Just because the Fed cuts rates doesn’t mean mortgage rates drop right away.

This move will impact things like car loans and HELOCs almost immediately, but mortgage rates usually take a bit longer—sometimes a few weeks—to catch up.

I want to help you understand what all this means for you. Don’t get caught up in the clickbait!

Rates started 2024 just over 7%, but by the end of Q1/beginning of Q2 jumped up to nearly 7.5%. Thankfully, they completely reversed course at the start of Q3, as positive inflation/jobs data sent rates well below the 7% threshold.

Below is an example of the roller coaster we have seen over the last 12 months:

October 2023 - $500,000 loan
Rate = 7.750%
Payment = $3,580.00

January 2024- $500,000 loan
Rate = 7.125%
Payment = $3,370.00

August 2024 - $500,000 loan
Rate = 6.500%
Payment = $3,160.00

December 2024 - $500,000 loan
Rate = 6.000% (hopefully*)
Payment = $2,995.00

As you can see, the trend has been extremely positive for homebuyers and has resulted in monthly savings of over $400 since they peaked in 2023.

I've had some clients ask me if they should refinance yet---get in touch with your preferred mortgage lender, or respond to this post and I'll suggest a few folks to reach out to. Most will likely encourage you to wait a bit longer & I think they're right but it would be smart for you to get the ball rolling so that when rates hit your goal you can just give the green light.

One of the many reasons I love being part of a team of fabulous women? We divide and conquer! over competition. Recently, had a client who wanted to expand his home search into Connecticut but needed some help navigating that area in addition to his RI search. As a Connecticut native, I was thrilled to step in and help. Together, we guided our first-time homebuyer to the perfect corner lot ranch. Despite a competitive market with multiple offers, his offer was selected—even with contingencies. The market is shifting right before our eyes. If you’re thinking about stepping into the real estate market, we can help navigate the ever changing world of real estate!
