💡 How Much Does 1% Save YOU?!

Everywhere you look, the headlines are buzzing about inflation, the stock market, and (most importantly for buyers + homeowners) interest rates.

Here’s the good news: according to Mortgage News Daily, rates have dropped nearly 1% since January.

And while 1% might not sound like a lot, here’s what that actually looks like in real life:

👉 On a $500,000 loan, that’s a savings of $332/month
👉 On an $800,000 loan, that’s $532/month
👉 On a $1,000,000 loan, that’s $665/month

That’s not just numbers—that’s a summer vacation, childcare costs, or padding your savings account each month.

Here’s the takeaway:
Rates are expected to bounce around this fall. It’s not the “perfect time” for everyone to buy, but opportunities are out there—and right now, affordability just got a little bit better.
