Home Projects That Add the Most Value

Whether you’re planning to move soon or not, you want to be strategic about which home projects you take on. Because not all of them will be worth it.
Before you decide what upgrades to tackle, talk to an agent who knows what’s in demand in your area and where you’re most likely to recoup the costs.
Connect with a local agent so you know which projects are actually worthwhile.

In a recent poll from Gallup, real estate has once again been voted the best long-term investment. And it’s claimed that top spot for 12 straight years now.
That’s because homeownership is one of the top ways to build your wealth, even with home price growth moderating and ongoing economic uncertainty.
If you’ve been trying to decide if it makes sense to buy a home today, connect with an agent to talk about the programs that can help you become a homeowner.

Are you wondering what to expect if you buy or sell a home in the second half of the year? Here’s what the expert forecasts tell you.
Mortgage rates are expected to come down slightly. There will be more homes available for sale. And as inventory rises, home price growth will moderate.
Want to know what this could mean for your plans? Connect with a local agent and talk through it together.

Once your offer is accepted, an inspector will assess the condition of the house, including things like the roof, foundation, plumbing, and more.
That information is incredibly important and paves the way for you to re-negotiate with the seller, as needed. So, you don’t want to skip this step.
An inspection is your chance to avoid costly headaches and get peace of mind. Connect with an agent to talk about other ways to make your offer stand out.

Thanks to recent home price appreciation, homeowners have near record amounts of equity – and you may too. On average, homeowners have $311K worth of equity.
Once you sell, you can use it to fund your down payment on your next home or maybe even to buy a smaller house in cash.
If you want to find out how much equity you have, connect with an agent. Because it may make a move a lot more feasible than you’d think.

If you put your home search on hold because you couldn’t find anything you liked in your budget, it’s time to try again.
There’s a much wider selection of homes for sale, with more fresh listings hitting the market each month.
With more options come more possibilities. Connect with an agent if you want to see what’s available in your area.
