Making extra payments on your mortgage can potentially save you a LOT of money.

Here’s why:

👉 Every extra dollar you pay toward the 𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗽𝗮𝗹 lowers the amount you owe.

That means:
✅ Less interest paid over time
✅ More equity in your home
✅ A faster path to owning your house outright

A few things to remember:

👉 The sooner you make extra payments, the more they help.

👉 Small extra payments add up. You don’t have to wait until you can make a huge one.

👉 Ask your loan servicer to apply extra money to 𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗽𝗮𝗹 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆.

Even one extra payment each year can make a big difference over the life of your loan.

June is part of the traditional spring and early , which means more homes are listed for sale during this time 🏆

Sellers often aim to move in the summer to coincide with the end of the school year, resulting in a broader selection of homes 🤩🏠

Rates fell for a second straight week, although the improvement was modest as peace talks with Iran continued to drag on without a final resolution. All other factors continued to take a back seat, with mortgage rates reacting almost solely to events in the Middle East.

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸'𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁: 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗯𝗲 𝘃𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗲 ⚠️
Rates will continue reacting to headlines about a potential peace deal with Iran, and that news was already volatile this morning. Unconfirmed reports that Iran may walk away from negotiations and fully block the Strait of Hormuz pushed mortgage rates higher to start the week. With markets closely tracking developments in the Middle East, rates will likely remain difficult to predict this week.

📈 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸:
• The Middle East: Mortgage rates will continue to react to headlines about peace deal negotiations. When oil prices fall, rates tend to improve. When oil prices rise, rates tend to move higher. Expect some day-to-day volatility, and even changes during the day, as markets respond to new developments.
• Economic data: Although this is a big week for labor market data, it is unlikely the data will have as much impact on mortgage rates as usual.

When you’re self-employed...

The income you show on your taxes matters, not just what you make in real life.

Writing everything off can lower your tax bill…
…but it can also limit your buying power when it’s time to get a mortgage.

This is why planning before you’re house hunting makes such a difference.
If you’re self-employed and considering buying, I'd be happy to discuss what mortgage professionals actually look at. So you can plan for it.

Summer has quietly become one of the most strategic times to buy a home ☀️🚀

While spring gets all the attention - with bidding wars, packed open houses, and a fast-moving pace - summer brings something even more valuable: leverage 🏠

With less competition and more room to negotiate, buyers can make confident moves without the chaos. If you’ve been waiting for the “right time,” this might be it 🔑

Rates pushed to the highest levels this year on Tuesday, but then moved lower after news broke that negotiations with Iran were progressing.

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸'𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁: 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝘂𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗲 👍
Rates will continue to track oil prices and follow headlines about a deal with Iran that could reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Minor military skirmishes aren’t likely to hurt rates as long as they don’t derail negotiations, but if the ceasefire were to end, we would see rates jump.

📈 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸:
• The Middle East: Peace talks continue with Iran, albeit slowly, as both sides push for concessions and compromises. The Strait of Hormuz remains closed to commercial traffic, and we are not likely to see mortgage rates move significantly lower from here until it reopens, though we could see modest improvement from recent highs.
• The Fed: Markets expect the Fed will be unable to cut rates this year and may even have to hike, as inflation continues to worry investors and traders.
• Economic data: It's a holiday-shortened week, but Thursday brings a few reports, including some inflation data. However, they shouldn’t cause any big moves in rates.
