Congratulations to one of my first time homebuyers who purchased this beautiful new construction home. She was told by other lenders that she would have to pay off debts in order to purchase. We were able to do her loan without any payoffs. She was also able to take advantage of our in house down payment assistance program which helped with down payment and closing costs. Thank you to Sharese McFarlin, REALTOR® it was a pleasure working with you!

Congratulations to Samantha! A first time homebuyer who just closed on her brand new home! She received over $10k in assistance and her realtor Tonya was also able to lock in $15k in builder concessions. You read that right! She was able to work with the lender of her choice and still receive the builder concessions! Are you ready to buy? My team and I would love to help you!

Congratulations to Euton on the purchase of his home!! He was a first time homebuyer that we were able to get $15k in down payment assistance and closed in 21 days!

Congratulations Curtis!! He was a first time home buyer that at times thought this process was going to be impossible but he stuck it out and closed a home for him and his family! Thank you to my amazing team Laura & Katherine for all their hard work behind the scenes! Also special thank you to Brittney for entrusting me with her client/family member. This was our first deal together and I look forward to many more to come!

Mortgage Rates Start Week at New 9 Month High, But Just Barely
By: Matthew Graham
Mon, May 18 2026, 3:34 PM

Mortgage rates hit their highest levels in more than 9 months at the end of last week. Now today, they've edged slightly higher yet again with the average top tier 30yr fixed rate at 6.68% versus 6.65% on Friday.

This wasn't necessarily destined to be the case today. In fact the day began with the average lender unchanged. But the underlying market remains highly attuned to breaking news on the Iran war.

Earlier in the day, that news was helpful for rates as it spoke to the possibility of compromise on a peace deal. Subsequent headlines refuted the initial news, thus pushing the financial market back in the other direction (i.e. toward higher rates).

The result was that the average lender recalled their initial rate offerings and re-released higher rates. Things were on track to be even worse this afternoon when Trump said he was cancelling a planned attack and that serious negotiations were taking place. This helped bonds recover some of the earlier losses, but not enough for lenders to make any friendly rate adjustments today.

5.0 star review received on Experience.com for LaMonica McDuffie by Sonkaya C - I definitely want to highlight that LaMonica and her NAF team—Laura, Katherine, and concierge Roy—kept me on track and supported me every step of the way through the loan process, helping me achieve my goal of homeownership. I don’t feel this process could have gone any smoother. Their patience and consistent communication meant a lot to me as a first time home buyer. I felt well supported, and informed throughout the entire process. I absolutely enjoyed and appreciated the way they worked so positively and professionally with my realtor team. Everything came together almost seamlessly, and their collaboration truly made all the difference in helping me reach this milestone.
