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.

𝗟𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸'𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗮𝗽: 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗱 𝗹𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 👍
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.

🏡 𝗙𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸 𝗼𝗳 𝗠𝗮𝘆 𝟮𝟱, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲

𝗟𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸'𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗮𝗽: 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗱 𝗹𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 👍
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.

🏡 You got the keys… now what?

Most people focus on moving boxes in.
But the first 24–48 hours in your new home can save you from expensive problems later.

Here are a few things every new homeowner should do ASAP👇

🔐 Change the locks
You never know who still has an old key.

🧼 Deep clean before unpacking
Way easier before furniture fills the rooms.

🚰 Find your main water shut-off valve
If a pipe ever bursts, this matters FAST.

🚨 Test smoke & CO detectors
A quick battery check can protect your family.

📂 Start a “home binder.”
Keep warranties, paint colors, appliance info, and repair receipts all in one place.

💰 Build a small home maintenance fund
Because eventually… something will break.

Buying a home is exciting, but knowing how to take care of it is what helps you feel confident in it.

Thinking about buying soon? Send me a DM, and I’ll help you with the process or answer any questions you have.

𝗟𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸'𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗮𝗽: 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗱 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗲𝗿 👎
Rates moved higher last week, reflecting global market concerns about persistently high oil and energy costs and rising wholesale and consumer inflation. Although not yet reflected in mainstream media, mortgage rates ended the week averaging the highest levels of the year.

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸'𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁: 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗲𝗿 👎
Rates are likely to move higher this week, and in the foreseeable future, unless a peaceful resolution is reached with Iran that reopens the Strait of Hormuz. The longer this drags on, the worse it could get for mortgage rates from here.

📈 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 much lower from here until it reopens.
• The Fed: Although newly confirmed Fed Chair Kevin Warsh replaced Jerome Powell and was expected to help lower the Fed's policy rate, markets now see a rate hike this year as more likely than any cuts due to rising inflation and a resilient labor market.
• Economic data: There is little data that will affect rates this week.
