"What if rates drop after I buy?"

It's one of the most common questions homebuyers ask.

While no one can predict future rates, waiting for the "perfect" rate could mean missing out on the right home today.

And remember: if rates fall significantly down the road, refinancing may be an option.

The key is making the best decision based on your needs and goals now.

Love the Location. Not the House? We Can Work With That.

You know where you want to live. But the move-in ready homes in that neighborhood? They may be stretching the budget a little too far.

Before you expand your search, consider expanding the types of homes you’re willing to look at.

With a renovation loan, you may be able to buy a home that needs some work and finance eligible improvements along with the purchase — all in one loan with one monthly mortgage payment.

That outdated kitchen or less-than-perfect floor plan could be an opportunity.

Found the right location but not the right house? Send me a message. Let’s look at what’s possible.

Every LO looks at compensation. The best LOs look at everything else, too.

A higher comp plan can look great, until you're paying for the technology, marketing, processing, and support you used to receive.

That's a lesson Sr. Loan Originator Curt Hale (NMLS 497901) learned firsthand.

“A lot of companies don't talk about the costs you're expected to absorb for technology, marketing, processing, verifications, and other essentials."

See why more LOs are looking beyond basis points.

You don’t have to be ready to tour homes to start the mortgage conversation.

I can help you estimate a comfortable price range, potential monthly payment and cash needed to close. Then you can decide whether buying now fits your plans or whether you need more time to prepare.

What if I told you you’re not the only person who overthinks their credit score when they want to apply for a mortgage? Here’s what you might not know...you don’t need perfect credit to secure a low down payment.

FHA financing may offer more flexible credit guidelines and low down payment options for qualified buyers. Contact me today and I can walk you through how it works.

The disco ball isn’t the only thing dropping. Your monthly payment can too.

For a limited time, PrimeLending will pay to lower your effective interest rate so you can start with a lower monthly payment during your first year. *

After that, your loan simply returns to its regular fixed payment.

Turns out birthdays can be good for your budget, too.

A lot of homeowners assume they have to wait years before refinancing. In many cases, the window may open within six to twelve months, depending on your mortgage and payment history.

If you think you’re ready to refinance, let’s talk. I’ll look at your current mortgage, discuss what you want to improve and see if your new payment and closing costs make sense together.
