If you're interested in purchasing a home, you've probably heard stories of "bidding wars" and buyers competing for properties. Today, let's dive into what a bidding war means! 🥊

It's no surprise that we're in a seller's market. With low housing inventory, there are more buyers than there are homes for sale. This means there can be multiple buyers competing for the same property. 🏡

When multiple buyers are making offers on the same home, they incrementally increase their offers in an attempt to stand out to the seller and beat out the other buyers, creating a bidding war!

Note that it's not always the highest price that wins a bidding war. There are many other factors and benefits to the seller that can be included in an offer. Many buyers have used non-financial strategies to make their offer stand out. 🏆

As your agent, I can help you strategize so that you're ready for this competitive market. If you're interested in discussing more, please reach out! 📲

Mortgage rates are on the rise, but there is good news! Housing analysts are saying that this could help cool down the market, not crash it. ❄️

Here are 3 ways rising mortgage rates could help cool things down:

✔️ Fewer buyers: Buyers hold off a bit, which means less demand and less competition among buyers.

✔️ More inventory: Less demand from buyers gives housing inventory (supply) a chance to rise back up to more sustainable levels.

✔️ Slows price appreciation: Less demand and more supply can help slow down the rapid price appreciation we've been seeing.

(Source: Fortune)

If you've been preparing to purchase a home and you're wondering what rising rates means for you, I can help. Please reach out with any questions you have! 📲

If you're preparing to purchase a home this Spring, the first stop is a lender's office!

Before you begin shopping for homes, it's time to meet with a lender to get pre-approved for a home loan. Having a pre-approval letter in hand can give you a leg up in this competitive market and show seller's that you're a serious buyer with your finances in order. ✅

A lender will look at your finances, employment and credit while determining the loan you may qualify for. Start preparing these 5 documents so that you're ready to begin the pre-approval process! 👇

✔️ Identification
✔️ Proof of income from the last 2 years; W-2 statements, additional income, tax returns and recent pay stubs
✔️ Proof of assets; bank statements and accounts that show proof of funds
✔️ Debt statements from loans or lines of credit to determine debt-to-income ratio
✔️ Other financial documents such as down-payment gift letters

If you have any questions about the pre-approval process, please reach out! 📲

Spring cleaning for sellers! 🏡

Today, let's talk curb appeal. You have one chance to make a great first impression and curb appeal is the way to do it, especially in the Spring! Flowers and landscaping are coming back to life and garden centers are full of seasonal plants that can help you boost your home’s curb appeal.

• To start, spend some time outside cleaning up your landscaping. Mow the lawn, clean up the edging and seed any areas that need it.

• Next, trim back trees and shrubs so that they accent your home, not hide it. 🌳

• Last but not least, add color with seasonal flowers. Whether you plant directly in the ground, in decorative planters or hanging baskets, adding in a few seasonal flowers is a quick way to boost curb appeal!

The next room on our Spring cleaning series is the kitchen! 🍋

One of the most important rooms when it comes to cleaning and staging is the kitchen. The kitchen is the heart of the home and also gets the most wear. The kitchen is such a high traffic room that it needs special attention when Spring cleaning.

Give your kitchen a thorough Spring cleaning so that it is shining and welcoming. If you’re staging to sell, be prepared for buyers to be looking all over! Make sure to clean appliances inside and out, dust on top of cabinets and appliances and organize inside of cupboards and drawers. 👀

Next up on our Spring cleaning series - create an inviting entryway! 🚪

This area may be small in square footage, but it has a big impact on the rest of the home.

Creating an inviting entryway actually starts at your front door. Welcome in the new season with a new welcome mat, a seasonal wreath and a few potted plants. A styled front door sets the tone for the rest of the home.

Once you’re inside, create a functional but welcoming entryway. You only need a few items for an entryway reset. Bring in an entry table, mirror, storage and lighting for function. From there, you can style with fresh flowers, coffee table books or accents that go with the rest of your home.

It only takes a few steps to set the tone for the rest of your home. If you’re staging to sell, an entryway refresh is a great way to help buyers feel welcome!

Do you have any entryway styling tips? Share them below! 👇
