Happy Gratitude Month!

Thanksgiving Day is fast approaching, and it is one of my favorite days of the year because it reminds us to give thanks and to count our blessings. In the spirit of this season of gratitude, we asked everyone on our team to share what inspires gratitude in them. It is my hope to encourage all of you to practice living a life of gratitude. People who are grateful enjoy many benefits as it increases positive emotions, allows one to relish experiences, improves their health, and builds strong relationships.

We also wanted to take a moment to pause and say how incredibly grateful we are for you and to all the people who have shown their support. We wouldn't be where we are today if it wasn’t for all of you. You are all family to us, and we are here for you if you ever need anything!

We wish you a Happy Thanksgiving and a month filled with celebrations and gratitude for our many blessings.

What You Need to Know About The Future of Home Prices

The value of homes has increased rapidly over the last year, creating a historically competitive market. This has led to a lot of questions about the future of home prices. While experts predict real estate will continue to appreciate, there are signs that the rate of appreciation may be slowing to closer-to-normal levels in the coming years. We are still undoubtedly in a sellers’ market, and the demand for new homes is high. A slower growth rate could bring relief to homebuyers who had put their searches on hold. The exact outcome has yet to be seen, but there is certainly exciting news on the horizon for homebuyers, sellers and builders.

Is an Energy Efficient Mortgage a Thing?

When shopping for a mortgage, it may be a good idea to consider an energy efficient mortgage (EEM). An energy-efficient home can reduce living expenses in addition to conserving and protecting natural resources. An EEM can increase the amount you are able to borrow, provided you are spending the extra money on cost-effective renovations that are environmentally friendly. Qualifying upgrades include solar panels, double pained windows, ducts and insulation, and many other repairs improvements. These upgrades are investments that pay for themselves over time by cutting the cost of utility bills.
