Congratulations to the Kingori family on their new home! Josh is a friend from our CA days many years ago and we are excited to have his sweet family near by! One weekend of house shopping, as they came in from out of state, and we successfully went under contract on their top choice! Who else wants to join us in KS? # #

If you want to raise an entrepreneur check out these upcoming events and get your littles signed up. My kids LOVE a good children's market! Be sure to let me know if you register so we can stop by and shop.

Parents are welcome, but are strongly encouraged to stand back and let the children deliver their pitch and close the sale.

When we said "see you later" to these dear friends in UT I never imagined I would get to help them buy a home in Kansas years later. Fun fact, they were my very 1st listing. We are so excited for them to be close by! Congratulations on your beautiful new home !!

My heart goes out to the passengers, crew, and military members involved in the terrible accident in DC. Praying for their loved ones and the search and rescue workers.

My littlest assistant fell asleep on my lap last night while I worked on an offer and it reminded me of this post from when he was just a week old. Thankful for a job that allows me the flexibility to work like this.

We saw so many fun houses on the showing schedule today. My clients and I loved this hidden walk-in pantry! Who needs one of these in your next home? 🙋‍♀️

The holiday months might be quieter in the real estate world, but they bring unique advantages for homebuyers:

Less Competition: With fewer buyers on the market, you’ll find it easier to discover your perfect home without the usual rush.

Motivated Sellers: This can translate into better negotiating power for you, making it possible to secure a great deal.

Tax Advantages: Completing a purchase before the year ends might offer tax benefits, such as potential deductions.

If a new home is at the top of your holiday wish list, now could be a strategic time to explore your options!

Dive into the world of homeownership with zero down! 🏡💰
Explore these loan programs and assistance options that make buying a home accessible without the need for a down payment.

1. VA Loans: If you are a qualified military service member, veteran, or eligible spouse, you may be eligible for a VA loan guaranteed by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. VA loans often offer competitive interest rates and do not require a down payment.

2. USDA Loans: The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) offers loans through its Rural Development program to eligible rural and suburban homebuyers. USDA loans typically do not require a down payment and offer low-interest rates to qualified borrowers.

3. Down Payment Assistance Programs: Many state and local governments, as well as nonprofit organizations and housing agencies, offer down payment assistance programs to help homebuyers with upfront costs. These programs may provide grants, forgivable loans, or low-interest loans that can be used toward a down payment.

4. First-Time Homebuyer Programs: Some lenders and government agencies offer special mortgage programs specifically designed for first-time homebuyers. These programs may offer low down payment options or assistance with closing costs to help make homeownership more accessible.

Be sure to work with a knowledgeable lender who can guide you through the process and help you explore all available options for purchasing a home with zero percent down!
