"Some people think that a 7/1 ARM must be paid off in seven years, but it's the interest rate that is fixed for seven years; the mortgage itself lasts for 30 years. The interest rate can go up or down after those seven years, but 30 years is how long you have to pay back the loan." - David Reiss Understanding all there is to know about mortgages can be tricky. But I have a network of excellent loan officers; I'd be happy to connect you with one! Just send me a message.

You probably hear a lot about how important "curb appeal" is, but there are a lot of other things that are even more important. In a recent survey, it was found that 76% of buyers said they'd buy a house they deemed ugly on the outside if the inside checked all their boxes. Backyard appeal also ranks higher than curb appeal.
