After a year or more of rates coming down, things have changed. And lately, mortgage rates have been climbing again.

And if that's made you wonder whether you should delay your move until they drop, you're not the only one.

The honest truth is that rates probably won't come down much until inflation cools off and some of the global uncertainty settles. And no one knows exactly when that'll be.

But what most headlines won't tell you is that rates aren't the only thing that affects affordability. Sure, they’re a big factor, but not all of the affordability news is bad.

Wages, home prices, and inventory are all trending in a direction that could still help make your move possible.

Want to know what that actually looks like for your situation? Drop a comment or send me a DM.

Because even though rates are higher, there are pockets of opportunity in any market, if you know where to look.

ARMs are getting more attention again because they can make buying a home more affordable in the short term. But they’re not right for everyone. The key is understanding how they work, what the risks are, and whether they fit your plan. And that’s why you need to talk to a trusted lender and financial advisor before you make any decisions.

If you’ve been looking for a home lately, you’ve probably felt how tough affordability still is.

Be honest. Have you started looking at homes online yet? Because if you have, it’s already time to get pre-approved. While you may be tempted to wait until you’re really serious about a house, that actually puts you behind the game. The better bet is getting pre-approved before you fall in love with something. It’ll give you clarity on what you can borrow, your ideal price point, and what your monthly payment could look like. That’s information you’re going to want up front, so you don’t fall for something outside of your range. Plus, when a house you love hits the market, you’ll be ready to go – not scrambling to figure it out. If you’re about to start looking or just casually browsing, let’s talk about where to start.
