That 12-foot skeleton in your neighbor’s yard? Probably scarier than the current housing market. ☠️

Rates may be the trick, but buyers have treats right now. Motivated sellers can pay to lower your rate. Price cuts are at a yearly high nationally. And inventory is up compared to last year, so you’ve got more homes to choose from.

Happy Halloween, Virginia Beach!

One candy doesn’t fit every trick-or-treater, and one loan doesn’t fit every homebuyer. 🍫

Some buyers are a perfect match for a VA loan. Others fit better with FHA, conventional, or USDA. Movement Mortgage has a wide range of options, and my job is to help you find the one that fits your situation.

You don’t have to buy a home alone.

Buying with a family member or friend is more common than you might think, and it can open up options you wouldn’t have on your own. When you apply together, your combined income, credit, and debts all factor into what you may qualify for.

Think of it like a duet. It works best when both people know their part before the music starts. That means talking through how you’ll split costs, how you’ll hold title, and what the plan is if life changes.

If you’re considering buying with someone, let’s get on the same page about financing before you start house hunting.

Your path to home financing may look different than someone else's, and that's okay.

Depending on your situation, there may be options available for:
• Self-employed or non-traditional income
• Co-borrowers
• Down payment assistance

Even if you're months away from buying, I'm glad to talk through your goals and what may be available when you're ready. Send me a message to get started.

*Qualification required. Additional restrictions apply. Program availability varies by location.

Waiting for the perfect song to drop? Some buyers feel that way about 5% mortgage rates.

72% of surveyed buyers waiting for lower rates say they're looking for rates around 5%, and some forecasts project rates around 6.3% by mid-2027.*

Forecasts can change. Instead of trying to predict the next move, let's look at the home financing options available for your situation. Message me and I'll go through the numbers with you.
