🛠 Rent professional-grade equipment to make the job easier ⁣

📅 Block off enough time (at least a few days) to get the job done right ⁣

🪵 Consider a lighter wood stain if you want to modernize your space ⁣

These days, it’s easy to order everything you need online. But there’s a lot to be said for shopping locally instead. ⁣

Here’s why we love to support local businesses: ⁣

✅ Invest in your community. ⁣
More of the money you spend with small businesses stays in the local economy. ⁣

✅ Support local jobs. ⁣
Small businesses are often great places to work and offer unique opportunities for employees. ⁣

✅ Preserve local character. ⁣
Independent shops make your area unique and can be a draw for visitors and new residents. ⁣

✅ Get better customer service. ⁣
Small businesses often form long-term relationships with their customers. ⁣

✅ Protect the environment. ⁣
Buying what you need in person cuts back on carbon emissions from shipping. ⁣

💸 Wondering where home prices are headed? 💸 ⁣

So far this year, the national median home price has been fairly stable—thanks, in part, to an increase in inventory of smaller, less expensive homes. ⁣

Analysts expect this trend to continue for the rest of the year, with prices rising gradually throughout the summer and fall. ⁣

When will mortgage borrowers get some rate relief? ⁣

In May, the Federal Reserve stated it has no immediate plans to lower benchmark interest rates, which means mortgage rates are also likely to remain elevated. ⁣

According to experts, a rate cut is now unlikely before September. ⁣

Considering a reverse mortgage? This type of loan enables owners of a certain age to borrow against their home equity without repayment until they move out or pass away. ⁣

But before you sign on the dotted line, here are some benefits and risks to consider: ⁣

➕ You can tap into your equity now, when you really need it ⁣

➕ You’ll eliminate any existing mortgage payments, so you can lower your monthly expenses ⁣

➕ Funds aren’t taxed since they are considered a loan rather than income ⁣

➖ Your heirs may need to sell the home after you pass to repay the lender ⁣
➖ Interest rates and fees are often higher than those for other types of loans ⁣

➖ Associated costs can eat away at the value of your estate ⁣
The reality is, reverse mortgages aren’t right for everyone, and downsizing can be a better choice for some homeowners. Schedule a free consultation to discuss your options. ⁣
