What a wonderful holiday season we had! We hope you all did well, and that the start of the new year is what you wanted it to be. We got to spend time with the family and friends, then right after the ball dropped, we headed off to my CE cruise so I could get that all done for the year. Rudy and I didn't want to leave that warm weather so quickly, so we spent a couple of extra days in Key West, adventuring around and soaking up that sun and warmth before coming back to this tundra! I just looked at my phone, and it says -35 windchill! WHAT!

Rates are still hovering around 6% average. We can already see that the buyers are still waiting; however, it's not so much about the rates anymore, as it is the "right home." Inventory is still low, which we do expect at this time of year. With that said, I am busy making all my calls to ramp up my business for the spring market. We just had a teammate list their property, and it sold in 12 hours! 

So, are you ready for this market if you need to be? Have you ever considered putting your home on the market and making it contingent on finding your next home? This strategy has been working great for my clients. If you are even thinking of selling OR buying this year, you need to have a plan. I remain committed to thinking outside of the box and working with you when you are ready. I will keep you updated on the rates, the market, and especially the housing trends, so we can make your money work the best for you. If you want to talk about the magic wand, reach out. I'd love the chance to help you at least talk it through. This is about what YOU are looking for and what YOU want out of your home.

Stay warm!
