Here are some pros and cons of fixer-upper houses to keep in mind.

PROS:�
- Usually a lower purchase price: Although you’ll likely need to spend more on renovating.
�-Less competition: Generally speaking, there is less competition for fixer-upper homes.�
-Chance to customize your home: Once you buy a fixer-upper house, you have the freedom to do whatever you’d like to it.

CONS:�
-Expensive renovations: Depending on the renovations, you may end up breaking even/spending more than you intended.
�-Unexpected issues: Even if you get an inspection, there can be unexpected issues, especially if the house is older.

This closing is bittersweet. It was a home to a couple of my really good friends and one of them was raised here. Her daddy built it and she lost him (both her and her sister lost him).💔That makes it really hard to leave but they get to move on to the next stage in order to design their lives as they dream they want them to be. I didn’t know her daddy but as a parent I know he’d be so proud of her (of both of them). Congratulations to my clients on the sale and closing of your home.

Make the most of your lives and choose happiness for yourselves every single day. ♥️

I remember when the average home price was $135,000 and $300k was considered Luxury😳. Wow have things changed!

A lot of the buzz says prices will fall this year. I think prices will stay and go up 📈at a more moderate pace. In the 3rd quarter after summer some of the higher priced homes may slash prices if they are sitting empty and sellers need to move them after pricing high in the summer market didn’t work. If a home is priced right for the market and it’s condition though it should sell. There is room for negotiation and we are seeing that where we haven’t in a couple years. The hope is as soon as inflation is under control (2%) we will see the fed adjust and rates come down 📉and that I hope is sooner than later. The rate hikes just haven’t been working as fast as the theory of it would have hoped. I pray that change will happen soon. 🙏🙏🙏

People want and need to buy houses but interest rates + costs of goods make it scary and hard. A family’s budget just isn’t stretching as far. People are staying put but the transplant buyers have to buy or rent. Rent is higher than buying and if you’re in a rental trying to stay put I pray you don’t get high rent increases pricing you out of your home. There isn’t much to go to on the rental market and if you find one that fits the same budget it’s possibly a big downgrade or downsize. With buying it could be the same thing because rates keep you from buying as much house so you’re looking for a home that’s smaller or a house that’s not of the same caliber or condition.

Buying is always better no matter what the rate is because you are at least paying toward a home that you own not one that someone else owns. I believe in building your own wealth even if it’s at a higher rate. Remember you are paying a mortgage regardless but with a rental you are paying someone else’s and building their wealth.

I just hope everything levels out this second quarter but a lot of predictions point toward the last quarter. As long as it costs banks more to borrow money it will cost us more to borrow it too. With that being said it’s still a great time to buy. There is less competition, less outlandish offers expected (appraisal gaps, no inspections) and you may be able to negotiate harder on a home you really love. Cut back on frivolous spending, be disciplined and buy the house you want (without putting yourself in a financial bind of course). Refi when rates drop. 🏠 Just my two cents of sense.

If you’re thinking of, wanting or needing to buy, or sell for that matter, call me. I would love to help you navigate the process and make your journey of home ownership a much smoother educated journey. 👏🏻

Friday’s question of the day! There are some trends we think should stay forever while others that never should have started. What is your favorite and what can you not stand when it comes to home design today?

Marvelous home on 2 acres, beautiful garden spot that’s watered by a well, huge covered front porch perfect for a porch swing and rocking chairs, a chicken coop and barn garage all in the country but within a few miles from town. Best of both worlds. Call me with questions or for your private showing!

What is stopping you from diving into homeownership? The road to owning a home can look different for everyone, but there is more than one path. Let us help you find the one that works best for you!

How do you feel about your current space? If you don’t love where you are at, I can help change that. Contact me today!

Pre-qualification tends to refer to less rigorous assessments, while a pre-approval can require you share more personal and financial information with a creditor. As a result, an offer based on a pre-qualification may be less accurate or certain than an offer based on a pre-approval. Make sure to get pre-approved today to get started on your house hunting journey!

This is one of the most important steps you can take when getting ready to buy a home. Pre-approval can save you time and heartache by helping you eliminate houses during your search that are likely outside of your price range. Don’t set yourself up for the disappointment of falling in love with a house only to discover that you don’t qualify for the necessary loan amount - get pre-approved!

Do you know how much equity you have in your home? A licensed professional like a realtor can help you determine that value and evaluate whether now is a good time to sell your home.

A mortgage is a type of loan used to purchase or maintain a home, land, or other types of real estate. The borrower agrees to pay the lender over time, typically in a series of regular payments that are divided into principal and interest. The property then serves as collateral to secure the loan. A borrower must apply for a mortgage through their preferred lender and ensure that they meet several requirements, including minimum credit scores and down payments. Mortgage applications go through an underwriting process before they reach the closing phase. Mortgage types vary based on the needs of the borrower, such as conventional and fixed-rate loans.

As a first time homeowner, you may be overwhelmed by the home maintenance list required to keep your house in good condition. This is important not just for the enjoyment of your home but for potential future resale value. When you buy a home, make sure you put locating your utility shut-off points at the top of your list. In the case of an emergency, knowing where these are can save your home from unnecessary damage.

Staging is about showcasing a move-in ready home that creates an emotional connection with the buyer. 82% of buyers agents said staging helped their clients to visualize the property as their home. Sellers should try to define each room with a purpose, maximize each space, ensure the home is well lit and neutral, and maintain any outdoor spaces.

Pre-approval shows how much a lender is willing to give you. If you start home shopping before finish the pre-approval process, you could get an unfortunate surprise when you apply for a mortgage and discover you qualify for less.

Before buying a home, you need to wrestle with these two things: your budget and your non-negotiable list.⁣
Your budget: Sit down with a reputable bank or mortgage lender to get pre-approved. Plus, a pre-approval letter will strengthen your offers.⁣
Your non-negotiables: These are your “must-haves” in a new home. Need to stay in the same school district? Need a fenced yard for the dog or a guest room for grandma? Keep this list short, but clear. You may need to reference it when the emotions of buying ramp up.⁣

Trying to decide your home style can be overwhelming; figuring out what you’re drawn to versus what works well when trying to achieve a certain vibe in your home. What style do you try to achieve when decorating your home?

What is the 25% rule?

Keep your monthly payment to no more than 25% of your take-home pay. Once you know what affordability looks like, share your boundaries with your real estate agent and develop a plan.

If you are ready to buy, contact me today!

I love this beautiful farmhouse. There are so many unique details about it that sets it apart from other homes and it’s so affordable. DON’T MISS OUT ON THE NEW IMPROVED PRICE! Accepted offer in August gets you a home warranty from me in honor of my kitty’s birthday! 🙌🏻
