Can you really trust online mortgage calculators? 🤔 Let’s break it down.

They’re helpful for ballpark numbers, but they don’t factor in what actually impacts your real interest rate, like:

📊 Your debt-to-income ratio (DTI)
— Ranges from 0% (debt-free) to 50%+

💳 Your credit score
— Anywhere from 300 to 850

💼 Employment type & income
— Salary, hourly, bonus-based, or self-employed

🏡 Loan details
— Size, type (FHA, Conventional, VA), and term (15 vs 30 years)

👥 Co-borrowers
— Their credit & income matter, too

📲 Want numbers based on your real-life situation? DM me “RATE” and I’ll run a custom scenario just for you!

👇 Have you ever used one of those online calculators? Let’s chat about how close (or off!) it was.

5.0 star review received on Experience.com for Alisha DiMaggio by Floyd A - I’ve never bought a house before, so I honestly didn’t know what to expect going into the process. Alisha made everything so much easier than I ever imagined. She was always quick to communicate, explained everything in a way I could actually understand, and never made me feel dumb for asking questions.
She took the time to explain the process, answered every question I had, and was always on top of everything. Her knowledge, patience, and communication made what could have been a stressful experience feel like a breeze.
I would absolutely recommend Alisha to anyone looking to buy a home. She made a first-time homebuyer feel confident every step of the way. We couldn’t have asked for a better lender!

5.0 star review received on Experience.com for Alisha DiMaggio by Christina A - We could not have asked for a better lender or a better experience purchasing our home! Alisha was absolutely amazing from start to finish. She was incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, helpful, and truly on top of everything throughout the entire process.
What stood out the most was how comfortable she made us feel. She was always non-judgmental, patient, and willing to answer every question we had, no matter how small. Her communication skills are truly on point — she kept us informed, explained things clearly, and never made us feel like we were bothering her.
Buying a home can be stressful and overwhelming, but having Alisha in our corner made such a huge difference. She went above and beyond to make sure everything stayed on track and that we understood what was happening every step of the way.
We are incredibly grateful for all of her hard work, dedication, and support in helping us get into our new home. If you’re looking for a lender who genuinely cares about her clients and knows her stuff, I highly recommend Alisha! She is truly the best!

Current NWA cravings:
Conversations with friends at Scotch & Soda. Paradise found with a bike ride and coffee in the woods. Sunshine and a pool day at Blake St. Sharing a meal with family at some of the best local spots.

And maybe my favorite craving of all… helping someone realize they’re closer to buying a home than they thought.

I have so many conversations with people who assume homeownership is years away. Then we sit down, look at the numbers, talk through their options, and suddenly it feels possible.

Maybe this isn’t just a list of my favorite local spots. Maybe this is the month you stop imagining your future home and start making a plan for it.

If buying a home has been on your mind, I’d love to have that conversation with you. No pressure. Just real answers and a plan that’s built around you.
