Owning a home isn’t just about paying the mortgage.

A few small maintenance jobs can help you avoid much bigger repair bills later.

Change your filters. Check for leaks. Clean your vents. Keep an eye on your roof.
Most of these only take a few minutes, but ignoring them can turn a small problem into an expensive one.

Save this list for later — and send it to a homeowner who needs the reminder.

I’ve heard a lot of stories from buyers who were surprised by closing costs because they were only planning for the down payment.

That’s exactly why I like to let people know this up front.

Closing costs can include things like:
• appraisal fees
• inspection costs
• taxes
• insurance
• lender and title fees

These costs can add up fast, so it helps to know the full picture early and not get caught off guard.

If you’re thinking about buying, reach out. I’m happy to help you understand what to expect so you can plan with more confidence. 🏡

🏡 𝗙𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸 𝗼𝗳 𝗔𝘂𝗴𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝟯𝟭, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲

𝗟𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸'𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗮𝗽: 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘀𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝗹𝘆 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝘀𝗲 👎
Rates have been pretty stable this month but ended last week near their highest levels. Most borrowers wouldn't see a change in rate, but may see a difference in the credit or points needed to get that rate.

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸'𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁: 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗻 👎
Rates could move higher this week as oil prices rise on increased tensions in the Middle East and markets worry the Fed may hike rates at its next meeting. Any increase may be small, but it's tough to see rates moving much lower from here.

📈 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸:
• The Fed: Fed Chair Warsh's Jackson Hole speech last week raised concerns that the Fed may hike rates as soon as the next Fed meeting in September to fight stubborn inflation. There is some concern the Fed may hike rates twice before the end of the year, despite upcoming midterm elections.
• Labor data: Several jobs reports come out this week, with Friday's BLS jobs report being the most important. The report will show how many jobs were created in August as well as the unemployment rate. Weak job numbers could help mortgage rates, while stronger numbers could increase the chances of a Fed rate hike in September.

A home is a big investment, and the things inside it will not last forever. 🏡

Your roof, heating and AC, water heater, and appliances all have a lifespan. Knowing how old they are can help you plan, save for repairs, and avoid a big surprise later.

A little maintenance now can also help things last longer and save you money over time.
Buying the home is only the first step. Taking care of it is what protects your investment.

Saving for a home can be hard when you already have a lot of bills. 🏠💰
Sometimes the first step is not saving more — it is getting your debt under control.
That could mean paying down bills little by little or looking at other ways to free up money each month.

Thinking about using money from your 401(k)? Make sure you understand how it could affect your retirement before making that move.

Once your monthly bills are lower, saving for a home may feel a lot easier.

Starting a new job while buying a home? Here’s what I want you to know. 👇

Please talk to me before you put in your notice. 😅

Changing jobs doesn’t automatically mean you can’t buy a home, but the timing matters.

If you’re starting a new job, I’m going to need to know:

👉 When is your last day at your current job?
👉 When does the new job officially start?
👉 What will your new pay be?
👉 Are there any conditions you still have to complete?
👉 When are we planning to close?

Depending on your loan type, we may also need an offer letter and additional documentation before we can use that new income to qualify.

This is one of those situations where I’d much rather you call me before making the change than tell me after everything is already in motion. 😂

Changing jobs? Moving money around? Making a big purchase?

When you’re buying a home, keep your loan officer in the loop. A quick conversation can save us both a headache later. 🙌

Very soon, you could be walking into a home you worked hard for. 🏡

The saving.
The waiting.
The second-guessing.

It all counts.

Buying a home does not happen on the same timeline for everyone. Some buyers need more time to save. Others need time to improve credit, grow income, or get paperwork in order.

That is especially true if you are self-employed.

Your path may look different, but that does not mean you are behind.

Every step can move you closer.

Not sure where you stand? Send me a message, and I can help you understand your next step.

🏡 𝗙𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸 𝗼𝗳 𝗔𝘂𝗴𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝟮𝟰, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲

𝗟𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸'𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗮𝗽: 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘀𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝗹𝘆 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝘀𝗲 👎
Although mortgage rates crept slightly higher, the move was small and rates really aren't much different from where they've been the last few weeks.

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸'𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁: 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗻 👎
Rates aren't likely to make any big jumps this week, but could creep a little higher depending on oil prices and the outlook for long term bond yields. If yields rise, mortgage rates will creep higher with them. The most likely way we could see rates surprise us and move lower would be a breakthrough in the Middle East that helps drive oil prices down.

📈 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸:
• The Middle East: There's no end in sight for the impasse with Iran, which means we're unlikely to see an increase in shipping traffic through the Strait of Hormuz that would help bring oil prices down. Elevated oil prices will continue to put upward pressure on mortgage rates.
• The Treasury: Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is looking for ways to bring down longer-term bond yields, which could help keep mortgage rates from moving much higher or even help them improve slightly. However, it would take something significant to push bond yields much lower and bring mortgage rates down.
