As we see rates bounce around above and below 7%, buyers are pulling back with hikes and entering back into the market with decreases. Makes perfect sense to see this homebuyer mindset.

Contingencies are pretty much across the board protections for both the buyer and seller. Contingencies are great things to know to either protect your earnest deposit (a thing of value, usually money) as a homebuyer or on the other end being able to collect the earnest money if the buyer cannot fulfill their duties of the contract for the seller and collect damages. Either way, it's good to know your contractural obligations and "outs."

This is a question that comes most often with our existing clients: Should I renovate or should I move? Many REALTORS® are one and done with transactions and we like to cultivate clients for life, so we get questions like, "how much would my home value increase if I renovated my kitchen or bathroom?" and "Is it worth staying put and renovating or buying a new build or an existing home?" These are important questions and vary not only from city to city, but in even as specific as home to home– looking at that potential value increase through a microscopic lens. We weigh the options on what just might be the best option for you.
