A lot of people have been waiting for rates to drop or prices to come down before making a move. But the reality is, sometimes life changes before the market does!

A growing family. An empty nest. A new job. Retirement. Needing to be closer to loved ones. Those are the real reasons 1 in 5 buyers last year said they felt like they had to move, no matter the market. Because life doesn’t wait for the timing to be perfect.

And if that’s where you are right now, you can still move. You may even have more options than you think. You just need someone who can help you find them. That’s where The Kitts Team comes in! Reach out for a consultation and let’s discuss your possible options for a move. The time could be now!

Nearly 40% of potential sellers say they’re planning to offer concessions this year – up from 30% in 2025.

That increase means you could see more flexibility on things like sellers covering your closing costs, adjusting the price, or making repairs.

But what’s worth asking for and what’s a long shot will vary depending on where you’re looking. That’s where we can help. Reach out to The Kitts Team and let’s talk about what concessions make sense in our market. Because, for buyers, the right ask could save you thousands!

Big WIN for our buyers today!

Three weeks ago, we got the contract. Today, they’re closing on their new home — and they’re bringing only about $800 out of pocket to the closing table! 🤯

This is why we love helping buyers explore programs they may not even realize are available.

With an FHA loan and down payment assistance options of up to 5%, homeownership can be much more attainable than people think. For these buyers, it made all the difference — and the process was one of the smoothest transactions we’ve had.

If you’ve been waiting because you think you need a huge down payment, let’s talk. There may be options available that can help you get into a home sooner than you expected!

When’s the last time you checked how much equity you’ve built? Because the number might surprise you.

In just the past 6 years, the average homeowner has gained over $128,000 – just from price growth and making their payments. That’s money that could help fund your next move or a major life goal. And if you’ve lived there longer than 6 years, your number could be even higher.

Want to find out? The Kitts Team offers a free equity assessment for homeowners in our market. Reach out to us to get started!
