Will Low Mortgage Rates Continue through 2021?

Great News!

simplifyingthemarket.com With mortgage interest rates hitting record lows so many times recently, some are wondering if we’ll see low rates continue throughout 2021, or if they’ll start to rise. Recently, Freddie Mac released their quarterly forecast, noting:

I love my ONEderful brokerage at Realty ONE Group Emerald Coast and every ONE affiliated with it.

Joining Jacqui Luberto, Matt Luberto and the rest of the ROG team has been a life changing experience for my family and I. There is so much love, support, education, tools and opportunities at ROG. The agents at ROG receive everything a team has to offer all while reaping a financial benefit of a flat fee opposed to a split.

I would not be able to do what I do everyday if I didn’t have this support and I am so grateful.

If anyone in real estate is thinking of a change or if you’re thinking about getting into real estate and need to know where to start, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I would be happy to help, share my experiences, and point you Jacqui’s way!

You've heard the phrase before..
.​
​Location, Location, Location!
​Well its true!
​.
​.
​.
You don't just want to look at the actual property location of a house-
​you want to look at where it is in relation to good school systems, parks, night life, and all the extracurricular things that make up your life!
​.
​You're not just choosing a home, you're choosing a lifestyle- choose wisely.
​
​Need a realtor that knows the area? Let's have coffee!

I love this quote so much!
​.
​"There are men and women who make the world better just by being the kind of people they are. They have the gift of kindness, or courage, or loyalty, or integrity.
​It really matters very little whether they are behind the wheel of a running truck, or running a business, or running a family. They teach truth by living it."
​- James Garfield 20th U.S. President

​Happy President's Day!

Happy Valentine’s Day to my loves!

My family is the reason I get up and press onward and upward every single day.
.
I thank God every single day for all that I have, especially, my husband, my girls and my fur babies.
.
Love y’all so very much and I’m so grateful I have you to call mine!
.
Happy Valentine’s Day to my sweet family! The loves of my life and the center of my world! ❤️🌍

Then we become wedding planners!

​The market is tough out there right now. You may look at a house in the evening and by the next morning it's already under contract!
​.
​You need to know you have a realtor on your side that's as serious as you are in this home buying relationship- and who would blame you for that?
​I know I would do the same thing!
​.
​.
​And that's why I'm so serious about making sure I'm with my clients every step of the way all the way up to walking them down the aisle right into closing!
​
​If your looking for the perfect matchmaker- lets have coffee and chat!
​
​Happy Valentines Day!

PENDING!

To say it’s been busy is an understatement! I noticed this beauty hit the hot sheet and sent it to my clients right away. I ended up showing it tonight at 8:45 and went pending by 10:30.

My clients are in Wyoming and we did everything virtually starting on Monday. Our initial meeting was over the phone, our buyer’s consultation and a map tour via the MLS was done by sharing my screen with them in a zoom meeting. I happily took them on tour of our area on my “dash cam”while driving. Tonight, I virtually showed them this property with my family by my side via FaceTime.

Since they have never visited this area, I use the tools I have to help guide them through this process — all virtually. I am grateful for technology and I’m honored that my clients trust me to help guide them through their home journey whether it be buying or selling. I take pride in my work and I work hard for my clients!

Congratulations to my clients on their investment beach home! I can’t wait for the them to actually step foot in it!

And thank you, Greg Alsobrook! Excited to work with you again!

Happy Friday!!
​

​What will you be doing this weekend? Tell me in the comments!

I can tell you all day long how much I love my job.
​But nothing I say will compare to client testimonials such as this one!
​
​This speaks so loudly right now in a time where homeowners
​are on the fence about selling!
​
​Thank you so much Charles!

🏠There is still a huge demand for homes right now, making it an excellent sellers market!

🏠 Mortgage rates are low. This will help give potential buyers incentive to buy!

🏠 Sellers are seeing multiple showings and offers.

💻 Houses are now able to be shown virtually!

Deciding to list your home is a big decision. And you want to have all the facts about the market and your realtor when choosing to do it.

So, if you have questions- let’s have lunch and talk!

Who doesn't love a good white pie?
​I know I do!
​But I also kinda love a Hawaiian pizza with jalapeños!
​
​Decisions...Decisions...
​
​But, you know who has the BEST pizza in the whole area??
​Pizza By The Sea!
​And they were voted best and most kid-friendly pizza in South Walton!
​
​​Are you celebrating National Pizza Day? Tag a place or tell me your favorite pizza place in the comments!

While it seems like you're ready to sell your home (I mean, you contacted me to sell it, right?)
​As a seller, you must be ready to let go emotionally, and that may sound easy until it’s really time to do it.

​You've spent years in your home and created lots of memories.
​You've shared ​joy and tears within your home, and a lot of the time I find sellers feeling a bit nostalgic about that once it comes to putting your home on the market.
​
​So take a moment...
​Take extra pictures of that spot where your children spent all their time.
​
​Take a moment to walk around and talk about all your memories.
​
​Write a farewell letter to your home!
​
​Whatever it is you need to do to get yourself in the right mindset to sell!
​
​As a seller, you cannot be emotionally invested in your home. You must be ready to treat it like the business transaction it will become.

If you are too emotionally invested when the time comes it could be more difficult to negotiate properly- or take criticism on things potential buyers feel are wrong with the house.
​
​So get your head in the game! Say your farewells, and get your mind ready to sell your home and move onto your next adventure!

Need some help getting things ready? Call me and let’s have lunch!
​

Happy Monday!
​
​Are you working towards your dreams, or
is fear still controlling you?

I’m choosing to get up today and keep working towards my goals!

Welcome Home Wednesday!

Have you just moved to the beautiful emerald coast? Welcome!
.
Still dreaming of living here? Hi! 👋 Come on down- there’s no snow here!
.
​.
No matter which one you are, it’s always fun to learn some not so well known facts about a new place!
.
​.
Here’s a few you may not know about the place you’ll call home!

👥Even though Destin gets approximately 4.5 million in visitors each year, it’s actually a small town!
​That’s right, Destins population, according to the 2020 census shows it’s actual population is only 14,665.
​
👩‍✈️Destin was named after a fishing captain who settled here between 1845-1850- Leonard Destin
​
🏝 Destin used to be an island- until hurricane seasons changed the landscape.
​
🏝 Crab island isn’t actually an island.. When the pass was dug out they dumped all the sand in one place creating an “island” but in 1975 a hurricane took it out and it turned into the sand bar it is today!

⚓️On top of being named the worlds luckiest fishing village, Destin also boasts the largest fleet of charter fishing villages in Florida!

Do you know any fun facts about Destin? Tell me in the comments!

6 more weeks of winter here isn’t that bad!

I love where I live!

@hey30a

Need more space this year? Larger homes with more rooms make working from home, learning from home, and simply spending more time at home more comfortable. DM me if your needs have changed over the past year, so we can find a larger home for you too.

Buyer Tip #3!
.​
​.
​.
​.
​If you've been following along with the real estate market this year, you've probably noticed that the minute you find a home you love- its gone!
​.
​This current state of the market is very tight due to the number of houses available being 43% less than this time last year. That's a drastic decrease!
.
​.
​.
​That's why Im recommending that all my clients be ready to make quick decisions and bid competitively when it comes to making an offer on a property. Being able to make quick decisions will help to give you a competitive edge and may even help you to get the home of your dreams!
