Selling a Home: Expectations vs. Reality 👀🏡 Expectation 1: 💰 “I’ll price it high and negotiate later.” Reality: 📉 Overpricing can turn buyers away. Homes priced right from day one usually get more interest—and stronger offers. Expectation 2: 🏡 “It’ll sell the moment it hits the market.” Reality: ⏳ Some homes move fast, others take time. Price, condition, and location matter more than wishful thinking. Expectation 3: 🔨 “I need to do major renovations before selling.” Reality: 🖌️ Small, strategic updates (paint, staging, minor fixes) often deliver the best ROI. Big renovations aren’t always necessary. ✨ Thinking about selling? Let’s cut through the myths, look at the numbers, and build a smart strategy that works for your goals. #HomeSellingTips #ExpectationsVsReality #SellingSmart #RealEstateAdvice #ListingStrategy

After you get the keys, your first mortgage payment usually isn’t due for about 2 months. That built-in gap gives you a little breathing room to settle in, handle moving costs, and get comfortable before payments officially begin. It’s one of those details that can make the homebuying process feel a lot less overwhelming, especially for first-time buyers. Questions about timing, payments, or what to expect after closing? We’ve got you covered. #HomeBuyingTips #NewHomeowner #MortgageBasics #RealEstateEducation #ClosingDay

Questions you can ask me anytime — even if you’re not buying or selling right now 👇 1️⃣ Do I qualify for any first-time buyer programs? 2️⃣ What’s a comfortable price range for me — not just what I’m approved for? 3️⃣ What can I do to improve my credit and get better loan terms? 4️⃣ How is the local market trending this year? 5️⃣ Which upgrades actually make sense before selling? 6️⃣ How much equity do I have in my home right now? 7️⃣ What neutral paint colors work best for resale? 8️⃣ When does refinancing make sense for my situation? 9️⃣ What design or layout trends are helping homes sell today? You don’t need to be “ready” to reach out. I’m here as a resource — whether you’re planning a move, thinking ahead, or just curious about the market. Questions welcome. Always. 🏡

🏡 Just Sold | Buyer Representation This purchase wasn’t about paying more — it was about buying smart. ✔️ Identified true market value ✔️ Structured strong terms without overreaching ✔️ Navigated competition with a clear negotiation plan For buyers watching the market: you don’t win by guessing or rushing. You win by understanding when to act, how to structure an offer, and where you still have leverage. If you’re planning a move this year, strategy matters more than headlines. DM “MOVE” to get started.

ANSWER: Two years. ⏳🏡 If your home is your primary residence and you’ve lived in it for at least two of the last five years, you may qualify for a major capital gains tax break when you sell. Here’s why that matters ⬇️ • Up to $250,000 in profit can be excluded from taxes ($500,000 if married) • That can mean thousands of dollars saved at closing Miss the two-year mark, and the numbers change quickly. Example: Buy at $250,000 → sell at $305,000 That $55,000 gain may be taxable if you haven’t met the two-year rule—potentially costing you over $8,000 in taxes before expenses. Of course, life doesn’t always follow perfect timelines. But if you can wait, those extra months can make a meaningful financial difference. Thinking about selling and unsure where you stand?

“I’d be crazy to sell, my mortgage is 3%.” We hear this all the time. And yes… that rate is great. But staying in a home that no longer fits your life can quietly cost you in other ways. Most people don’t move because of interest rates, they move because life changes. More space. Less space. New priorities. Different lifestyle. Feeling cramped, stretched, or stuck in a home that doesn’t work anymore creates stress, no matter how good the rate looks on paper. There’s also no such thing as a “perfect” time to move. And the equity you’ve built may make your next step more attainable than you think. A low rate is nice. Living in a home that actually works for you? Even better. 🏡 💬 Thinking about your next move?

🎯 Thinking about buying a home in 2026? Let’s start the plan now. Getting a mortgage isn’t about luck—it’s about preparation. Here are three things I’d focus on this year if homeownership is on your radar 👇 1️⃣ Strengthen your credit Your credit score plays a huge role in the rate and terms you’re offered. Small improvements now can mean big savings later. • Check your credit report for errors • Pay bills on time, every time • Keep credit card balances low • Avoid opening new accounts unless necessary 2️⃣ Save with intention You don’t need everything overnight—but you do need a plan. • Set a realistic monthly savings goal • Keep your down payment money separate • Look into down payment assistance programs • Automate savings so it stays consistent 3️⃣ Know your loan options The “best” loan isn’t the same for everyone. • Compare fixed vs. adjustable rates • Explore FHA, VA, or other programs you may qualify for • Talk to a lender early so there are no surprises If buying in 2026 is something you’re even considering, now is the time to get ahead of it. Let’s map it out together. 🏡 #2026HomeGoals #MortgagePrep #HomeBuyingPlan #FirstTimeBuyer #RealEstateGuidance
