🏡 Should you buy when mortgage rates are high?

The answer isn't always as simple as "wait for rates to drop." Higher rates can create opportunities, while lower rates can bring more purchasing power-but potentially more competition.

✨️Pause to read the info graphic!

Look at the bigger picture and remember: it's not just about the rate-it's about the right home, the right strategy, and what works for YOU!

Marry the house, date the rate🏡💙

🚨BUYER BEWARE AWARE!🚨

Thinking about buying a new construction home in Delaware? There is more to consider than just the advertised purchase price.

Impact fees can be an important part of the conversation-and understanding what they are, who pays them, and how they may affect your financing and cash-to-close can help you make a more informed decision.

👉🏽Before you sign, ask questions, and make sure you understand the answers.

I created this quick guide to help you know what to ask your lender when purchasing new construction.

💙 An informed buyer is an empowered buyer!
