๐ซThe biggest misconception I hear about buying right now is that itโs smart to wait for interest rates to come down. ๐๐ป You DONโT need to wait! The truth is if you buy at todayโs rates, you can always refinance if rates drop๐. But if you wait with the hope of rates coming down, you can't go back and borrow at today's rates if that doesn't happen. If you know youโre ready to buy ๐ก, you need an agent ๐ฉ๐ปโ๐ผwho knows the market in your desired location and a trusted lender๐ฆ who can help you understand what you can afford. Is the above you? Have you been struggling to decide about buying now vs. waiting? ๐DM, and letโs talk. ๐ซ แงแแแแแแ แแแแ แแชแแแ แ แฌแแ แแแแแแแ, แ แแช แแฎแแ แแแกแแแก แงแแแแแก แจแแกแแฎแแ, แแ แแก แแก, แ แแ แแแแแแ แฃแแแ แแแแแแแ แกแแแ แแชแแแขแ แแแแแแแแแแแแก แจแแแชแแ แแแแก. ๐๐ป แแฅแแแ แแ แแญแแ แแแแแ แแแแแแ! แกแแแแ แแแ แแฆแแแแแแแแ แกแแแ แแชแแแขแ แแแแแแแแแแก แจแแกแแฎแแ แแ แแก แแก แ แแ, แแฅแแแ แงแแแแแแแแก แจแแแแซแแแแ แ แแคแแแแแกแแ แแแ, แแฃ แกแแแ แแชแแแขแ แแแแแแแแแ แแแแชแแแ. แแฃ แแชแแแ, แแ แแแแแแ, แ แแ แกแแแ แแชแแแขแ แแแแแแแแแ แแแแแแแแก(แ แแช แจแแแซแแแแ แแ แแแฎแแแก), แฃแแแ แแแ แแแแ แฃแแแแแแ แแ แแแ แแแฆแแแ แกแแกแฎแก แแฆแแแแแแแแ แกแแแ แแชแแแขแ แแแแแแแแแแแแ, . แแฃ แแชแแ, แ แแ แแแแ แฎแแ แ แจแแกแแซแแแแ

๐ฃWant to save money ๐ต on your mortgage? This post is for YOU, friend! ๐ฆ interest rates on the rise, getting the best possible rate is even MORE important than ever โ especially since it'll be tagging along for the next, say, 15 or 30 years. Remember, your interest rate depends on several things, like your credit score, the value of the home, and your debt load. So, if you wanna to save by locking in the best rate (yes, please!), here are three tips you can't afford to ignore: โ . Improve your credit score now. Get your free credit report from AnnualCreditReport.com. Look it over for accuracy and figure out what you need to do to bump it higher, like paying down outstanding balances. โ . Shop around for lenders. Instead of going with the first lender you talk to, contact several and compare your options to make sure you get the best deal. And donโt be shy - let them know youโre shopping around. โ . Boost your ๐ฐdown payment. This may be a no-brainer, but the more you put down at the time of closing, the less youโll pay on the loan. Plus, lenders view higher down payments as less risky loans, which could reduce your interest rate. The truth is โ it is getting harder to save as rates are on the rise, but there are steps you can take today that will make a difference. ๐ DM me if you'd like to talk more โ I'm happy to help however I can.
