There are 2 constants in real estate: 1. People are always going to be moving, which means they’re always buying and selling. 2. Real estate is always changing! Over the past few years, we’ve seen several large shifts in the market. Take a look at just how much has changed for buyers between this year and last year. Interest rates have risen but competition is down, making it a much easier and more pleasant time to be a homebuyer. Plus, you might be able to save some initial cash upfront with a smaller downpayment. Unlike buyers in 2022, today’s homebuyers don’t have to make crazy above-list price offers with extra cash on hand or sign away their inspection rights to get a seller to consider their offer. Which had put so much pressure on buyers. Are you interested in buying a home in 2023? Send me a DM, and let’s get coffee and chat about home buying! . . . #zestimate #topagent #realestatemarket #sellrealestate #sellersagent #selleragent #listingagent #luxuryrealtor #zillow #redfin #californiamarket #homehuntingcalifornia #homehuntigsocal #socalhomehunting #homehuntingtips #lamarket #socalmarket #topagentLA #topagentOC #topagentIE #ocmarket #sellersagentLA #sellersagentOC #sellersagentIE #realestateLA #realestateOC #realestateraisa #raisanatividad #KWExecutive (at IKEA) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqBceAYP37K/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Pop quiz! Drop your answer in the comments and then come back here to learn what the answer is! When you’re ready to buy a home, you need to get a… pre-approval! A pre-approval is when you take your financial info to a lender, they run a credit check, and then let you know how much of a mortgage you will likely be able to receive. This information is crucial for determining the price range of homes you can look at. Plus, sellers love to see pre-approved buyers because it means that your financing is basically secured. A pre-qualification isn’t as good as a pre-approval as it doesn’t include credit history or an in-depth financial analysis, but it’s a good first step if you’re just testing the waters. If you’re ready to jump in and buy a home, getting pre-approved is the way to go. Want to talk more about pre-approval? Send me a DM and I’ll get you the information you need! . . . #realestate101 #realestatetips #realestateterms #askyourrealtor #realtorexpert #realtoradvice #realestateadvice #luxuryrealtor #zillow #redfin #californiamarket #homehuntingcalifornia #homehuntigsocal #socalhomehunting #homehuntingtips #lamarket #socalmarket #topagentLA #topagentOC #topagentIE #ocmarket #sellersagentLA #sellersagentOC #sellersagentIE #realestateLA #realestateOC #realestateraisa #raisanatividad #KWExecutive (at Santa Clarita, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpxoj6SrVOd/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

If you’ve been following me for a while, you know that you don’t need 20% down to buy a home. But in most cases, you do still need to put some money down. That might leave you wondering how much you need to have saved. Your down payment is usually calculated as a percentage of the purchase price of a home. As a result, the cheaper the home, the less money you’ll need to put down to purchase it. This handy guide shows you how much you need to have as a down payment for differently priced properties. Remember: the more you put down, the less you’ll pay in interest over the life of your loan since your down payment goes towards the principal. Deciding how much to put down when you buy a home is a personal choice, but your real estate agent and lender can help you make the right decision. Want more tips like this?

Reminder: buying or selling a home isn’t a done deal when the purchase contract is signed and the closing process begins. Yes, even though the real estate contract is a binding agreement, it can be terminated. Until both the buyer and the seller have signed off that final piece of paper on closing day, the deal is up in the air. Swipe to see 5 reasons why purchase agreements can be terminated! Note that a lot of these reasons have to do with the contingencies baked into the purchase agreement–and those contingencies can always be negotiated. Your agent will help you ensure that the proper contingencies are in place during the negotiation process so that you don’t get stuck in a bad situation for both the buyer and the seller. Have questions about real estate contracts or contingencies? Send me a DM, and I’ll get you the info you need! . . . #realestate101 #realestatetips #realtortip #askyourrealtor #realtorexpert #realtoradvice #realestateadvice #luxuryrealtor #zillow #redfin #californiamarket #homehuntingcalifornia #homehuntigsocal #socalhomehunting #homehuntingtips #lamarket #socalmarket #topagentLA #topagentOC #topagentIE #ocmarket #sellersagentLA #sellersagentOC #sellersagentIE #realestateLA #realestateOC #realestateraisa #raisanatividad #KWExecutive (at CB2 West Hollywood) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjjNZ5wvCAY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

In this market, becoming a homeowner can seem out of reach. Many properties are expensive right now and interest rate increases definitely don’t help. But with these steps, you can create a budget that will help you find the right home! Step 1: Add Up Your Income. Make sure to capture all the income that you get, not just the income from your full-time job. Step 2: List Your Household Expenses. Get all of the bills and expenses you normally have to pay listed out in one spot. It’s not the most fun, but it’s the most important part! Step 3: Calculate Homeownership Costs. Owning a home can come with extra expenses outside of your mortgage payment like repairs and maintenance. Be prepared for these expenses by budgeting them in. Step 4: Give Your Budget Room to Grow. Budgets aren’t meant to be a one-and-done thing so give your budget a little space to grow–both on the income and expenses side. Step 5: Make Adjustments. Take a look at your budget. Can you afford a house? If it’s a little tight, see what you can take out or if you can add some income in. If yes, then awesome! You’re ready to reach out to a real estate agent. If you follow these steps, you'll develop a great budget that will put you onto the path of home ownership–without busting your budget! . . . #buyersmarket #firsttimehomebuyer #homebuyingprocess #downpaymentassistance #homeequity #homevalue #homeshopping #buyersagent #buyeragentsl #thehelpfulagent #homeownership #homegoals #letstalkrealestate #californiamarket #homehuntingcalifornia #homehuntigsocal #socalhomehunting #homehuntingtips #lamarket #socalmarket #topagentLA #topagentOC #topagentIE #ocmarket #sellersagentLA #sellersagentOC #sellersagentIE #realestateLA #realestateOC #KWExecutive (at M Grill - Brazilian Churrascaria (steakhouse)) https://www.instagram.com/p/ChiDyMxPeTr/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
