Brian Sanchez+FollowWhy Everyone’s Upgrading Instead of MovingEver notice more home reno trucks than moving vans lately? That’s because homeowners are realizing it’s way cheaper to fix up their current place than to buy a new one with today’s high mortgage rates. Instead of taking on a pricier loan, people are using their home equity to add value—think new kitchens or extra bedrooms—without losing their low monthly payments. The real money move? Upgrade your nest and skip the moving stress. #RealEstate #HomeImprovement #MoneyHacks00Share

Heather Moore+Follow15-Year Mortgage Rates: Still Worth the Squeeze?Thinking about refinancing to a 15-year mortgage? Heads up: rates are climbing, so the old "shorter is always better" rule doesn’t always add up. Sure, you’ll pay off your house faster and save a ton on interest, but your monthly payment could jump—meaning less cash for fun, savings, or emergencies. Run the numbers for your own life, not just what your neighbor did last year. Sometimes, a 30-year loan with extra payments is the real money hack. #RealEstate #MortgageRates #Refinance00Share

Knowing this can help you time your next move—whether you’re buying, selling, or just dreaming. #RealEstate #RealEstateTips #HomeBuying10Share
