Some see a Snowy Saturday - I see the perfect day for house shopping
It might not be the perfect day for a drive — but it might be the perfect time to find your next home.
Most buyers are waiting for spring to be in full bloom. That means you’ve got fewer people to compete with, more room to negotiate, and better odds of getting into a home at a lower price.
We’re already seeing homes in the $550,000–$700,000 range getting snapped up quietly — and come spring, those same homes could easily be listed $30,000–$50,000 higher. Or much more!
Marry the house, date the rate.
Lock in the property while prices are low and pair that with our strategy to get you into a mortgage with lower penalties, and you’re set up to refinance later when rates improve.
This isn’t just a clever saying — it’s how smart buyers are getting ahead.
A $650,000 home today might see 5–10% price growth come spring. That’s $32,500–$65,000 more down the road.
Even if rates aren’t perfect right now, we can place you with a lender that has low penalty terms, so you can refinance later — no major costs, no surprises.
And if you wait, that same home could be listed at $690,000+ with 6 offers on the table.
Grab some coffee, hit the road and take a look at some houses today.
Then hit reply or text me @ 250-919-5474 and I’ll walk you through what’s possible.
Enjoy the weekend all, no matter what it looks like out there, spring is just around the corner…
