From this point forward no woman in the U.S. should ever take their husband’s last name. Just keep your own name FFS.

True! If I had to do it all over again, I would.

Congratulations to my incredible client on becoming a first-time homeowner! It is truly one of the most rewarding parts of my job to watch someone go from "I wonder if I can do this" to holding the keys to their very own home. Thanks for letting me be a part of your home-buying journey!

I love helping Veterans and their familys become homeowners!
This family is now enjoying their beautiful home in Gig Harbor.
The VA loan provided them with a more competitive rate than conventional and has no monthly mortgage insurance.
If you're thinking about buying a home, let's talk!

I am so honored when clients return to me to help them with the financing of their next home.

It's exciting to see what they were able to accomplish because they were able to take the first step buying their starter home and flash-forward to now - sell that home so they can buy their dream home!

Feeling especially grateful this Presidents Day β€” for wide open spaces, long road trips, and the families I get to help plant roots.

Have you been to the Grand Canyon?

Roosevelt believed we don’t inherit the land from our ancestors β€” we borrow it from our children.

That idea feels a lot like homeownership to me. It’s not just about a mortgage. It’s about legacy. Stability. Building something that lasts.

One of my favorite quotes from him:

β€œThere can be nothing in the world more beautiful than the Canyon of the Colorado.”

And he was right. ❀️

Watching the light move across the canyon walls… it makes you feel small in the best possible way.

Standing at the rim of the Grand Canyon this week, I couldn’t help but think about Theodore Roosevelt. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

In 1908, he protected what is now Grand Canyon National Park so future generations could experience its beauty.

Eight years ago, I had the honor of helping this couple buy their first home. Fast forward to todayβ€”they sold that home for $180K more than they paid and used the proceeds to buy their dream home in Buckley for their growing family.

So grateful to be part of your journeyβ€”then and now πŸ’™

Mortgage rates remain at their lowest levels in 3 yrs according to Freddie Mac's PMMS report released today.

What's important to know is that this report is based on a weekly average - it is only intended to give you an idea of how rates are trending.

Please DM me for CURRENT rates 😁
