Half my body weight in ounces of water every day.

Great for hydration.

Absolutely ELITE for getting your steps in. 😂🚶‍♂️🚽

I’ve been working on eating better and drinking more water, and it reminded me of something:

We usually know what we should be doing.

Knowing isn’t the hard part.

Doing it consistently is.

A lot of the harder choices we make today — with our health, our money, our relationships, our careers — are really about giving our future selves more choices later.

So drink the water.

Do the hard thing.

And maybe don’t wander too far from a bathroom. 😂

Starting Sept. 17, buyers may have a little more room to work with. Guild is increasing conventional conforming loan limits for one-unit properties to $845,000, ahead of the anticipated FHFA announcement.

While it may seem like a small adjustment, higher conforming loan limits can create additional financing flexibility for buyers shopping in higher-priced markets.
As always, I'm here to help you understand how changes like these may impact your homeownership goals and buying power.

Are you planning to buy a home soon, but feel like the process is overwhelming? Waiting for the perfect market conditions might actually be holding you back.

Many buyers focus solely on the purchase price or hope for perfect interest rates. However, understanding your total monthly payment and preparing your credit early are what truly make or break your purchase.

Buying smart is about finding a strategy that fits your budget today while keeping your options open for the future. 🏡

You do not have to navigate this journey with guesses. Comment TRUTH below, and let us build a clear home buying plan tailored to your goals. 📈

We had a military tax exemption issue that Brian had not dealt with and he and his team had it all worked out within a few days. Overall an incredible experience with Brian's and his tram! 12/10!

🏠 Need a plumber? Electrician? HVAC company? Handyman? Before you ask Google… ask me.

One thing I’ve learned after years of working with homeowners, Realtors, contractors, and local businesses around Des Moines:

I’ve got a guy. 😂

Actually, I’ve got quite a few.

Plumber. Electrician. Roofer. HVAC. Pest control. Landscaping. Handyman. Contractor. And plenty more.

These aren’t names pulled from a Google search. They’re people I know, people my clients and Realtor partners have used, and people I’d feel comfortable recommending to my own family.

And sometimes knowing who NOT to call is just as valuable.

👇 So let’s test my list.

Comment below with something you need done around your house — big or small — and I’ll reply or message you with who I’d call.

And if you know a new homeowner, send this video to them. Buying the house might be the beginning of our relationship, but it definitely doesn’t have to be the end of it.

Recent Treasury actions are designed to calm the bond market and support lower borrowing costs, but global uncertainty and inflation concerns continue to create challenges. So what's next for buyers?
