Personal | My October Mood

  • My October mood? 🍂 Cozy sweaters, spooky season… and checking off big goals before the year wraps up. ✨

    As we head into Q4, I’m looking at the next few months and asking: What do I really want to finish strong on? For me, that means (**INSERT YOUR SPECIFIC GOALS ex. helping 3 more families find their perfect home, wrapping up projects, or setting up a smooth start for 2026).

    October always feels like a reminder that there’s still time. Time to make progress, time to get intentional, and time to close out the year in a way you’ll feel proud of.

    So tell me, what’s one goal you’re focusing on before the year ends? Drop it below, I’d love to cheer you on. 🙌

Personal | Lower Rates + More Homes = Your Moment

  • I'm sure you've heard the news interest rates have dipped back down to around 6.3% for a 30 year fixed mortgage. 📉

    That may not sound like a big deal, but even a small shift in rates can mean hundreds of dollars saved on your monthly payment. Over the life of a loan, that adds up to tens of thousands of dollars.

    And here’s where it gets even better:
    🏡 Homes are sitting longer on the market right now.
    💰 Sellers are more open to negotiating.
    📊 Buyers actually have options (and leverage) again.

    Translation? You don’t have to fight tooth and nail just to get an offer accepted, and you’re locking in at a rate that’s already better than what we saw a few months ago.

    With the combination of lower rates + higher inventory, this is a great time to buy, and this opportunity won't last forever.

    Curious what your payment would look like on a home at today’s rates? Send me a DM!

Informative | Why Are Half of Homes Selling Below List Price?

  • Half of homes right now are selling under asking price… but yours doesn’t have to. 🏡📉

    Here’s the truth:
    ✔️ 50% of homes in today’s market are selling below list.
    ✔️ But the other 50% are selling at or above asking (when they’re priced right from the start)

    The frenzy of 2021–2022 is gone. Buyers today have more choices, tighter budgets, and less urgency. That means your pricing strategy matters more than ever.

    If you want your home to stand out (and sell strong), here’s the formula:

    1️⃣ Prep your house: repairs + touch-ups go a long way.
    2️⃣ Price it strategically: based on sold data, not just list prices.
    3️⃣ Stay flexible: negotiations don’t always mean lowering price.
    Bottom line: Price it right in those first two weeks and you’ll attract the serious buyers.

Home Tips | Pumpkin Carving Tips

  • Before you grab the knives and scoop out the guts, here are a few tips to make your jack-o-lanterns spookier and last longer:

    🎃 Pick the right pumpkin: look for one with a flat bottom so it won’t wobble while you carve.
    🕷️ Scoop it clean: scrape the walls about 1 inch thick where you’ll be carving to make cutting easier.
    🔦 Light it up safely: use battery-operated candles or LED lights instead of real flames.
    ❄️ Help it last: rub petroleum jelly on the cut edges to slow down drying and keep it fresh longer.

Local | Homeownership in Q4

  • Q4 is here! For homeowners, it’s also one of the most important times of the year to get intentional with your home and finances.

    Here’s why:

    🧾 Property taxes + escrow.
    This is when many counties send out tax bills, which means lenders are adjusting escrow accounts. If taxes went up, you could see your monthly payment shift, and it’s better to know now than be surprised later.

    🔧 Seasonal home maintenance.
    Falling leaves are pretty… until they clog your gutters. Q4 is the time to prep your home for winter: clean gutters, check your furnace, seal drafts, and make sure your home is ready for colder weather.

    💡 Year-end homeowner benefits.
    Don’t forget: mortgage interest, property taxes, and certain expenses may come with tax advantages. Reviewing before the year wraps can save you stress come spring.

    📊 Future planning.
    This is the perfect season to check in with yourself: Is 2026 the year to buy, sell, or refinance? Do you want to invest in updates or even a new property? Setting goals now makes January feel less overwhelming.

Informative | "Should I Buy Now Or Wait Until Spring?"

  • I got a text this week asking: “Should I buy this fall or wait until spring?”

    Here’s what I told them (and I think you should know too):
    📉 Mortgage rates are hovering around 6.3%, down from the highs we saw last year.
    📈 Inventory is up, which means more homes to choose from and sellers who are more open to negotiating.

    So why buy now?

    ✨ Less competition compared to spring
    ✨ More negotiating power with motivated sellers
    ✨ Lock in a lower rate before things shift again

    Spring usually brings more listings, yes, but also more bidding wars, higher prices, and more stress.

    If your finances are ready and your credit is solid, this fall could be one of the best windows to buy in (**YOUR CITY**) in 2025.

    👉 Want me to run the numbers for you so you can see what buying now vs. waiting would actually look like? Send me a DM!

Home Tips | Refinancing Is Getting Hot Again

  • Refinancing is heating up again… and here’s why 👇

    📉 The average 30-year fixed mortgage rate is now hovering around 6.26%–6.40% (down from the 7%+ peaks we saw not long ago).

    📈 With that drop, refinance applications have jumped nearly 60% compared to this time last year.

    So what does that mean for you?

    ✨ If you bought or refinanced when rates were above 7%, this could be your chance to lower your monthly payment.

    ✨ Even if you’re not changing lenders or loan terms, shaving off some interest or moving to a shorter loan could free up space in your budget.

    ⚠️ But remember, refinancing isn’t free. Closing costs, your credit, and how long you plan to stay in your home all factor into whether it’s the right move.

    If you’ve been wondering whether refinancing makes sense for you, the smartest step is to have a trusted lender run the numbers. I’m happy to connect you with one if you’re curious.

Reel | Choose Your Realtor Wisely

  • The truth can sting a little… but you need to hear it.

    Some agents will tell you whatever price you want to hear just to snag the listing. But here’s the problem: an overpriced home doesn’t just sit, it goes stale. And stale homes? They cost you time and money.

    Buyers aren’t fooled. If they see price cuts over and over, their first thought isn’t “what a deal” it’s “what’s wrong with it?”

    The best agent isn’t the one who flatters you with the biggest number. It’s the one who gives it to you straight, so your home actually sells.

Reel | This Might Sound Crazy

  • But the truth is, my job isn’t to convince you to buy any house. It’s to help you buy the right one.

    That means sometimes I have to say:
    ❌ “This isn’t worth the price.”
    ❌ “The numbers don’t make sense.”
    ❌ “I know you love it, but here’s what I see.”

    Because getting into a home you love matters, but protecting your future matters more.
