The past few years have brought about significant changes in the housing market, and I’ve seen firsthand how this has impacted many of my clients.
For many, the rising cost of rent has been a challenge. I’ve had clients share that their rent nearly doubled since 2020, while others faced the frustration of having to move out due to their landlord’s decision to remodel and sell. One family, who had called their duplex home for twenty years, found themselves displaced and needed a solution to their frustration.
Whatever their reasons or your reasons now for wanting to own, I am honored have helped them and now you with your decision. Owning a home means investing in something more permanent, something that won’t increase in price year after year. Instead of seeing your hard-earned money disappear into rent, it can now work for you, building equity and contributing to your financial future.
I would love the opportunity to help you achieve this. To make it easier, I’ve included a simple calculator below to show you how a monthly mortgage payment might compare to your current rent.
Let’s explore how homeownership can be a reality for you.

Note that the above is just to give you an idea of what you can afford based on your monthly rent. There can be other fees depending on the home you choose (HOAs, PMI, etc). If you want to look more in depth and play with the numbers you can do so with my Mortgage Calculator.
