How to secure a mortgage when buying a fixer upper...


Thinking about turning a fixer-upper into your dream home? 🛠️ Here’s how renovation loans can make it happen!

Consider FHA 203(k) or Fannie Mae’s HomeStyle® Renovation Loan — these allow you to combine the purchase and renovation costs into a single mortgage.

Here’s what you'll need:
✔️ Pre-approval from a lender experienced in renovation loans
✔️ Detailed contractor estimates for the work
✔️ An appraisal based on the future value after renovations, not the current condition

Yes, the process might require more planning, but with the right team and loan, your perfect home is totally within reach! 🏡✨

THINKING ABOUT DOWNSIZING?

THINKING ABOUT DOWNSIZING? 

If you’re starting to think about downsizing but aren’t sure where to begin, don’t miss my FREE Downsizing GuideIt walks you through what to expect, how to prepare, and how to make your next move the right one.

Thinking about making a move but not sure if it’s the right time? If your current Central Ohio home feels more like a burden than a blessing, you’re not alone. Many homeowners eventually reach a point where downsizing isn’t just an option, it’s a smart, freeing next step.

Whether you’re looking to cut back on maintenance, save money, or move closer to loved ones, here are five signs that downsizing could be the right move for you.

1. You’re Not Using Most of Your Space

If whole rooms in your home sit unused for weeks (or even months), that’s a strong indicator that you’ve outgrown the need for so much square footage. Downsizing can help simplify your lifestyle and reduce upkeep.

2. Maintenance Feels Overwhelming

From mowing the lawn to fixing aging appliances, owning a larger home comes with a long to-do list. If keeping up with repairs and chores feels exhausting, a smaller, low-maintenance home might be a better fit.

3. Your Expenses Are Higher Than You’d Like

A bigger home often means bigger bills—utilities, taxes, and upkeep add up quickly. Downsizing can help you free up equity and lower your monthly expenses so you can focus more on what you enjoy.

4. You Want to Be Closer to Family or Medical Care

Location becomes increasingly important as we get older. Many people downsize so they can live closer to adult children, grandkids, or quality healthcare.

5. You’re Craving a Fresh Start

Downsizing isn’t just about space—it’s about lifestyle. A smaller, more manageable home can open the door to new experiences, simplified living, and more freedom in retirement.
