🏡 Two agents reached out. Two homes are now UNDER AGREEMENT! 🎉

Last Friday, I shared a video about how a temporary rate buydown could help make a home more attractive to buyers without having to reduce the asking price.

Two real estate agents reached out to explore the option for their listings… and now BOTH properties are under agreement after marketing the temporary rate buydown! 🙌

Sometimes, it’s not just about lowering the price. It’s about finding creative ways to make homeownership more affordable and give buyers a reason to take a second look.

✨ Thinking about selling? Have a listing that needs a fresh strategy?

Let’s talk about how a temporary rate buydown could help make your property stand out.

And buyers — if you’ve been sitting on the sidelines, let’s review your options and see what might work for your budget!

🏢 CONDO BUYERS & REAL ESTATE AGENTS — DON’T WAIT UNTIL IT’S TOO LATE!

🚨 Changes to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac condo requirements could impact financing eligibility, and preparation is key!

One important change? Reserve funding requirements are increasing from 10% to 15% for applicable loans beginning January 4, 2027.

Here’s how you can get ahead of the changes:

🏡 BUYERS: When making an offer on a condo, ask for the condo questionnaire up front!

🔑 LISTING AGENTS: Before bringing your listing live, request the completed condo questionnaire and current master insurance policy. Identifying potential issues early can help avoid unexpected financing delays.

Remember, it’s not just about whether the buyer qualifies for the mortgage. The condo project itself matters, too!

📲 Buying or listing a condo? Call me at 774-285-3485. Let’s make sure you know what to look for before it becomes a problem.

🏡 BUYERS, IT’S TIME TO REVIEW YOUR PREAPPROVAL! 🏡

The market has shifted, interest rates have changed, and buyers have more opportunities to negotiate. If you’re thinking about buying a home, there are a few important conversations you should be having with your loan officer! 👇

✅ 1. What monthly payment are YOU comfortable with?
Not what you qualify for, but what fits YOUR budget and lifestyle. That’s where we start!

✅ 2. When was the last time you updated your preapproval?
The market has changed, and rates are higher than they were just a few months ago. Don’t assume your old numbers still work! It only takes a few minutes to review your options. 📲

✅ 3. Have you discussed a TEMPORARY RATE BUYDOWN? 🔥
This is a program every buyer should understand in today’s market! Depending on the program, a temporary buydown can lower your interest rate for the first 1, 2, or 3 years of your mortgage, helping ease you into homeownership.

And here’s something else you need to know…

💥 EVEN IF YOU’RE ALREADY PREAPPROVED WITH ANOTHER LENDER, LET’S TALK! 💥

As a mortgage broker, I work for YOU! I shop among 200+ lenders to find competitive rates and closing costs for my clients.

Think of it as RETAIL vs. WHOLESALE! 🏡 My job is to explore your options and help you find the best financing solution for your situation.

And with sellers increasingly having to compete for buyers, there may be opportunities to negotiate seller concessions that could help with your closing costs or a temporary rate buydown!

Don’t just get preapproved. Get PREPARED! 💪

Let’s review your numbers, explore your options, and make sure you’re ready to move when you find the right home.
