5.0 star review received on Experience.com for Michael A. Lara by Meredith H - Michael and his team communicate very well. They are on top of the documentation needed in the underwriting process and prompt at following up if documents are missing. Working with Michael was easy, the entire home buying process was well explained, there were no surprises. I highly recommend working with Michael!

5.0 star review received on Experience.com for Michael Lara by Jessica D - Michael and his team member Sara were the best we could hope for in making our home ownership dreams a reality. They did a great job explaining all the in's and out's of the mortgage and home buying process and were quick to respond to any questions and concerns we had. It was such a smooth and painless process and they made it stress-free from day one!

The Federal Reserve announced another benchmark rate increase.

If you’re thinking about buying a house, it’s helpful to keep in mind that:

1) These rate hikes have a purpose—to curb inflation.
2) Mortgage rates are still historically low.
3) Affordable mortgages are out there.
