Goodbye NY helloo PA!  So excited to have met this lovely family (thank you Facebook 🙏🏼) over the weekend! We were able to hone in on a specific area, take a look at a few homes and pick (and WIN) the one! ✨🏡

Let’s talk fixer-uppers… because they might be the perfect move for you! 🏚️
 
Fixer-uppers often get a bad rap because they take time and money to get looking like your dream home. 💸
 
But with a little strategizing, you can make an amazing home out of a fixer-upper for an incredible price! 🏡
 
Plus, with benefits like a lower tax bill, custom finishing, and more equity, a fixer-upper can be hard to beat. 💼
 
Tag your homebuying partner to see if a fixer-upper is the right choice for you! 🏠

Do you believe any of these mortgage myths? 🏠
 
Getting a mortgage can be overwhelming, in part because there’s so much misinformation out there! 🚫💬
 
These 10 things are some of the most common mortgage myths out there. 📉💭
 
Basically, you need to know that:
 
1) It’s probably easier to get a mortgage and buy a home than you think! This is especially thanks to first-time homebuyer programs and mortgage options that need only 3.5% down. 🏠💼
 
2) It’s absolutely worth taking the time to do your mortgage research and making sure that you’re prepared to get a mortgage before jumping into the mortgage process. Your real estate agent can help with this or you can stick around on this page! 📚🔍

Want some advice that’s *ACTUALLY* helpful? 🤔

There’s a lot of conflicting advice out there when it comes to buying or selling your home 🥴

You’ll hear one thing from your relatives who have owned homes forever and then your friends will suggest something totally different. That’s not even considering all of the info out there on the internet! 🌐

Here’s what you actually need to hear:

Buy a house when YOU are ready. Sell your house when YOU are ready ⏰

It’s as simple as that!

Real Estate is personal–it’s all about where you live your life, after all 🏡

That means that the decisions you make need to be based on YOU, not on what Aunt Rosita is suggesting or what the hot takes on TikTok tell you 📱

Remember: your real estate experience starts with you and your unique situation, not the market or anyone else’s opinions. 💬

Second time’s a charm! 😜 This pretty lady is under contract for the second time after the first buyers came down with a bad case of cold feet! Worry not! It took less than 24 hours for the right buyers to decide they wanted to make her theirs! Wooo! 🥳

Let’s break this down… 🔍

While owning a home provides some incredible short-term benefits like a safe, stable place to live, the best of Real Estate is all in the long-term benefits 🏡✨

Real estate nearly always appreciates over time, which means that the home you own will increase in value 📈

As a result, this increases your personal wealth! As your home’s value grows, so does your equity in the home💰

This increase directly translates into more profit and cash in your pocket when you sell your home down the line 💵

While the market may feel challenging today, becoming a homeowner brings those long-term benefits that are unparalleled 🏠🚀
