The Odds are In Your Favor.

By Living Room Realty, October 1, 2019

Every real estate sale is different. That’s a big part of why I love this job so. Dang. Much.

For Amy, she knew the basics of what to expect and worked hard to be a “student of real estate” — attending First Time Homebuying classes provided by the state. Asking her lender all the questions she needed to know confidently move forward with her purchase. And of course, I was by her side to inform her of her options to purchase. I was so excited to get her the keys to her new home that is not only a great option for her, but a long-term solid investment.

Did you know that homeowners’ net worth is on average 44x greater than that of a renter? Wow. Read more here.

Working with first time homebuyers is some of the most rewarding work I do. I remember what it’s like – it’s a huge decision with a LOT of dollar signs attached. My promise to my partners is that I will be there – with resources, with answers, with advice, with hot coffee and a hug (I love hugs), if you need it. We’re entering a market cool down and the market continues to balance in favor of buyers. Interest rates are low. And while buyers are stepping up to the plate to take advantage of purchasing in today’s economic climate, you won’t see the level of competition that was taking place in the peak summer months. If you’ve had any interest in learning more about the market and how you fit in, please reach out. I’ll keep the coffee on.

Till then, high fives,
