Are you worried about the value of your home if the economy slows down? You’re not alone. It's one of the top concerns homeowners have right now.

But the truth is, in 4 of the last 6 economic slowdowns, home prices actually went up. Everyone remembers the 2008 crash – but that was the exception, not the rule.

You see, during recessions, prices usually follow whatever path they’re already on. And even with inventory rising and prices moderating today, there just aren’t enough homes on the market for a massive drop in values at the national level.

If you’re wondering how the current economy is impacting our local market or the value of your home, DM me.

Are you waiting to buy until you’ve saved enough to make a 20% down payment? That’s actually one of the most common homebuying myths.

Unless your specific loan or lender requires it, odds are you won’t have to put that much down.

The median down payment for first-time buyers is actually just 9% – and depending on your home loan type, you could put down even less than that.

The bottom line? You might be closer to buying a home than you think. Connect with a trusted lender to explore your home loan options and find out.

Do you think waiting to buy might save you money? Think again.

While today’s market isn’t always easy, the longer you wait, the more you’ll spend.

Experts say home prices will keep climbing for at least the next 5 years – and on the typical $400K home, that means the same house would cost nearly $80K more.

But, if you buy now, you could gain that same amount in equity over the next 5 years.

The question isn’t if prices will go up - it’s whether you’ll be the one benefiting from them as they do. Would you walk away from $80K?

So, what’s your next move? DM me and I’ll show you what the numbers look like for our market today.

Most prospective homebuyers don’t know the minimum credit score lenders require or that it varies by lender and loan type. If you want to explore your options to see what’s out there, connect with a trusted lender.

Data shows 7 out of 10 prospective homebuyers don’t know the minimum credit score required by lenders or that it varies by lender and loan type.
