For some families who want to buy, the numbers just aren’t lining up right now.

Between ongoing affordability challenges and rising childcare costs, it can feel like you have to choose either buying a house or paying for daycare. But a growing number of people are finding a smart solution where they can do both: buying a multi-generational home.

1 in 7 buyers purchase a home with their parents, grandparents, or other relatives. And here’s how that helps. By combining incomes and sharing expenses, they can finally afford to buy. And it even makes childcare easier when loved ones all live under one roof. Sometimes the path to homeownership isn’t doing it alone. It’s doing it together. Want to explore what this could look like for you? Let’s connect.

Did you try to buy a home last year and feel stuck? Maybe there just weren’t enough options. Or, nothing really fit what you were looking for. That’s starting to change.

There are now nearly 2x as many new listings hitting the market compared to a few months ago. Those are homes that were just put up for sale.

That means more fresh options and a better chance of finding the house that actually works for you.

If you’re curious what’s out there in our area right now, let’s take a look together.

To those who made the ultimate sacrifice, thank you for your service.  And thank you to your families.

Renting may be a good choice, depending on your situation but pay attention to this: The net worth of a homeowner is 43x greater than that of a renter. Not 2x. Not 5x. Forty-three.

Now that doesn’t mean you have to buy today. But you should at least know your options and what it would take to get there.

Want to stop renting and start building something for yourself? DM me and we can come up with a plan together. Your timeline. Your budget. Your future.

There has been a lot in the news lately about investors buying all the homes right now but that is not really true.

Only 0.4% of the 86 million single-family homes in the U.S. are owned by large investors (those with over 1,000 properties) today. That's a lot less than headlines would have you think.

So, if that’s been shaping how you see your chances of buying, it might be worth looking at things a little differently.

I still remember when I found this out. I originally thought it was 50/50. But know that you know this, try making an extra payment or just pay a little more to principal each month (if you can) and you will pay off your loan faster and save in interest costs.

Not every house is selling for over asking anymore. In fact, it’s down to about 1 in 4 homes today, compared to nearly half in 2021. That's a good sign for buyers. It means the market is getting back to normal.

Now, this is going to vary by area. But overall, it means you may find sellers with more wiggle room on their price today. And in a lot of places, negotiation is back on the table.

Let’s make the most of it.
