Even though you may feel reluctant to sell your house because you don’t want to take on a mortgage rate that’s higher than the one you have now, there’s more to consider.

That's why when I accompany my clients to showings, I encourage you to spend time getting to know the property and deciding if it checks enough of your boxes, while I focus on making sure we ask the following questions: 1) Why is the homeowner selling? 2) How long has the property been on the market? 3) Are there any other offers on the property? 4) When does the seller…
