Mortgage rates have been dropping (Hallelujah! 🙏)

The question everyone is now wondering: "Should I refinance??"

Refinancing your mortgage and securing a lower interest rate can mean substantial long-term savings.

But deciding whether to refinance your home depends on several factors...

🔖 Here’s how to evaluate if it’s a good time to refinance:

YOUR CURRENT RATE
A general rule of thumb is to refinance your mortgage when interest rates are at least 1% lower than your current rate.

COSTS OF REFINANCING
The cost to refinance your mortgage can range from 2% to 4% of the loan amount. You want to be sure that potential savings will outweigh total closing costs.

YOUR "BREAK-EVEN" POINT
Your break-even point is when you will recoup all the closing costs that come with refinancing your loan. For example, if your closing costs are $5,000 and your monthly savings from refinancing is $200 per month, it would take you 25 months to break even.

YOUR FUTURE PLANS
If you plan to stay in your home for several more years, refinancing could be a smart move, but if there's a good chance you'll relocate before reaching your break-even point, it's worth reconsidering.

I'm a little late sharing this, but huge congratulations to my buyer, Kaylee! Earlier this spring, she reached out to me about buying her first home after I had the pleasure of helping her older brother buy and sell his. Coming from a family with a background in construction, Kaylee was pretty laid back about what she wanted – as long as the roof was solid and the foundation was strong, she was open to possibilities!

That made our home shopping journey so enjoyable. We explored everything from older homes with potential (and some serious imagination!) to new construction options, before she found the perfect one.

I truly love helping my clients find a home that not only fits their budget but also feels right for them. My goal is always to keep things grounded while making the process fun, even though it can be emotional at times. I always have my clients' backs, and I make sure they know that they should never feel pressured to move forward with a home if it doesn’t feel like the right fit for them—no need to worry about "wasting my time"!

So excited for Kaylee and grateful for the opportunity to be part of her journey!

Special shout out to Michael Bertarelli with New American Funding & the ladies Chesterfield Title Agency, LLC for making sure our buyer had an extremely smooth transaction!
