If buying or selling a home is your goal for 2024, it’s important to understand today’s housing market, know your why, and work with industry experts to bring your homeownership vision for the new year into focus. 🎯

Over the last year, the economy had a big impact on the housing market, and likely on your wallet too. That’s why it’s critical to have a clear picture of not just the market today, but also on what you want out of it when you buy or sell a home. Here are a few things to think through as you define your goals for 2024.

1. Know Your Why
You’re dreaming about making a move for a reason – what is it? Your needs may have changed in a way your current house can’t address, or you could be ready to step into homeownership for the first time. Use your why and your motivation as a guidepost in partnership with an expert advisor to make sure your move gives you a lasting sense of accomplishment.

2. Figure Out What Your Next Home Needs To Look Like
You know you want to move, but how would you describe your dream home? The number of homes for sale has grown recently, and that could mean more options to choose from when you buy. But overall housing supply is still lower than more normal years in the market, so you’ll have to work closely with a pro to find what you’re looking for. Just be sure to keep your budget in mind as you balance your wants and needs.

3. Determine if You’re Ready To Buy
Getting clear on your budget and available savings is essential before you get too far into the process. Partnering with a local agent and a lender early is the best way to make sure you’re in a good position to buy.

Let’s connect to plan how to make your homeownership dreams a reality in 2024. Call me at (760) 688-6472!

What does this year hold for the housing market? Here's a look at what the experts project for 2024.

If you're ready to buy a home, but are having a hard time affording it on your own, or, if you have aging loved ones you need to care for, you might want to consider a multi-generational home. 👪🏽 ⠀
⠀
A multi-generational home is a home that has two or more adult generations living together. This can include siblings, parents, and even grandparents.⠀
⠀
Choosing multi-gen living allows people to purchase a home much larger than they could afford on their own by leveraging the combined income, credit, and a down payment of those that they will be occupying the home with.⠀
⠀
Plus, there are other advantages! Some include ease to take care of loved ones, greater financial flexibility to achieve your goals, built-in at-home childcare, and more quality time with your family.⠀
⠀
If you think a multi-generational home would be a good idea for yourself or a family member, give me a call! (760) 688-6472

Is your summer patio ready for fall decor? 🍂☕️🪵 Now is the time to use outdoor fall decorations to add seasonal warmth to your patio. Here are four ways to make your patio cozy this fall.

If you’re thinking about buying a home soon, higher mortgage rates, rising home prices, and ongoing affordability concerns may make you wonder if it still makes sense to buy a home right now. While those market factors are important, there's more to consider. You should think about the long-term benefits of homeownership too. 🏠 ⠀
⠀
Think about this: if you know people who bought a home 5, 10, or even 30 years ago, you’re probably going to have a hard time finding someone who regrets their decision. Why is that? The reason is tied to how home values grow with time and how, by extension, that grows your own wealth. 📈 That may be why, in a recent Fannie Mae survey, 76% of respondents say they believe buying a home is a safe investment. ⠀
⠀
The typical homeowner who bought a house 30 years ago saw their home almost triple in value over that time. That’s a key factor in why so many homeowners who bought their homes years ago are still happy with their decision. 😊 ⠀
⠀
While you may have heard talk throughout the year that home prices would crash, it hasn’t happened. In fact, experts project home prices will continue to rise for years to come. ⠀
If you’re wondering if it still makes sense to buy a home today, it's important to focus on the long-term advantages that come with homeownership. When you’re ready to start your homebuying journey, let’s chat! Call me at (760) 688-6472.
