Did you know less than 50% of adults live in their birth state?

If you could move to any state, which one would you choose and why?

I am personally licensed in 15 states, and my company is licensed in 48 states! If you're thinking of making a move, let's get started on making your plan!

Half of U.S. adults still live in their birth state, on average, but some states diverge widely from that benchmark. In Nevada, just 17% of adult residents were born in-state, compared with 74% in Louisiana.

As your home value grows and you pay down your mortgage, you may build equity that can provide greater financial flexibility. Depending on your goals, options may include a cash-out refinance or other forms of home equity financing that may be used for purposes such as debt consolidation. Each comes with different rates, costs, and repayment terms. The right approach depends on how much equity you’ve built, your current mortgage, and what you want to accomplish. Debt Consolidation is taking your high interest debt and rolling it into a lower interest mortgage loan. By refinancing your existing mortgage, your total finance charges may be higher over the life of the loan. I can help you compare options that fit your financial goals and determine what may make sense for you. Have questions? Send me a message — I’m happy to help!

Buying a home? Once you're pre-approved, it's important to keep your finances steady until after closing. Avoid opening new credit accounts, financing large purchases, or even financing with buy now, pay later financing or increasing your credit card balances, as these changes could impact your loan approval. Your pre-approval is based on the snapshot of your information at the time of the pre-approval and if anything changes before or while you're in escrow, it could impact your loan approval.

If you have questions about how to avoid surprises during the home buying process, I'm happy to help!
