Listing words can reveal a lot ↓ If you are buying a home in Lubbock, pay attention to the words used in the listing. They can tell you more about the seller's situation and what to expect. “Motivated seller” usually means the seller needs to move quickly. That could be because of a job move, a divorce, or carrying two mortgages. “Priced to sell” could mean the seller has priced the home competitively. But sometimes it is simply a way to attract more buyers and create a bidding war. “As-is” means the seller is not planning to make repairs. You should still get your own inspection so you know what you are buying. The listing description is not just marketing. Read the wording carefully before you decide what a home is worth. DM me and I will help you know what to look for when you are reading a Lubbock listing. #LubbockRealEstate #LubbockHomes #FirstTimeHomebuyer

Most buyers save for the down payment. Then they're surprised by everything else. If you're planning to buy a $300,000 home in Lubbock, there are three savings buckets to think about. 1. Down payment With a 3% down payment, you'll need about $9,000 Putting more down can lower your monthly payment, but many first-time buyers don't need 20% to get started. 2. Closing costs These are separate from your down payment. A good planning number is about 3%, or another $9,000. Depending on the home and the market, we may be able to negotiate for the seller to cover part of these costs. 3. Money after closing Don't spend every dollar getting the keys. Moving, furniture, utility deposits, and small repairs add up quickly. Setting aside around $5,000 can make those first few months a lot less stressful. That puts your total savings goal at about $23,000 Here's what that looks like if you're saving each week: Buy in 1 year: $442/week Buy in 2 years: $221/week Buy in 3 years: $147/week These numbers are examples. Your loan, home price, and seller concessions could change what you actually need. DM me, I'll help you figure out what your numbers could look like in Lubbock. #LubbockRealEstate #LubbockTexas #FirstTimeHomeBuyer

Small savings can build options. If you and your partner each save $154 a week starting January 1, 2027, you could have more than $32,000 saved by the end of 2028. That is $308 a week combined. Over two years, those small weekly deposits add up. That money could help with the upfront costs of buying a $600,000 home, depending on your loan and financial situation. From there, owning property could give you another financial option later. Building enough equity for another purchase depends on your loan balance, the home's value, and the market. The goal is not getting rich overnight. It is getting on a plan you can actually stick with.

Count the garage doors before buying. One of the first things I look at when touring a Lubbock neighborhood has nothing to do with the house itself. Look at what is happening around it. Are cars parked in driveways or on the street? How much traffic comes through during the day? Is there noticeable road noise? Are there sidewalks, parks, or green spaces nearby? These are the details you cannot always see in listing photos, but they can tell you a lot about what your daily life could look like after you move in. A house can check every box and still be in an area that does not fit how you want to live. When you tour a home, look beyond the four walls. What do you check first when touring a neighborhood? DM me if you want help finding a Lubbock home and area that fit your needs. #LubbockRealEstate #LubbockHomes #LubbockTexas

10 things l’d never do to my own home↓ 13 years+ in real estate has shown me what makes a home harder to sell. Here’s what NOT to do. (and what to do instead if you care about resale): 1. Custom paint colors (red, black, neon). They polarize buyers. Instead: neutral tones-bigger, brighter, more appealing. 2. Converting a garage. Buyers want storage/parking. Instead: keep it and add organized storage. 3. Over-landscaping. Rarely pays back. Instead: simple, low-maintenance curb appeal. 4. Luxury appliances above neighborhood. You won’t recoup it. Instead: mid-range, energy-efficient. 5. Removing too many walls. Buyers want flexible spaces. Instead: wider openings/double doors. 6. Bold kitchen trends. They date fast. Instead: timeless cabinets in neutral finishes. 7. Trendy flooring everywhere. Styles change. Instead: hardwood or LVP in neutral tones. 8. DIY bathrooms. Bad work kills value. Instead: hire a pro for kitchens/baths. 9. Adding a pool in mid-priced areas. High maintenance. Instead: patio, fire pit, pergola. 10. Ignoring maintenance. Buyers care more about roofs/ HVAC/windows. Instead: keep mechanicals updated. Bottom line: what feels exciting now can cost tens of thousands later. Stick to neutral, timeless, functional. Save this list for future projects or to share with clients.

That home that’s been sitting on the market for 30+ days? That’s your opportunity. Here’s a strategy most first-time buyers don’t know about: Instead of asking the seller to drop their price, offer full asking price and ask for seller concessions instead. Real example: Home price: $350,000 You offer: $350,000 (full price) You ask for: 3% in concessions = $10,500 back at closing That $10,500 covers your closing costs — meaning you keep that cash in YOUR pocket after closing. The seller gets their number. You keep your savings. Everybody wins. First-time buyer questions? Drop your comments and let’s talk.

After walking through hundreds of homes across Lubbock, I can tell you this ↓ Not every renovation adds value. Some actually make buyers want to offer LESS Here are 7 remodeling mistakes I see sellers make over and over again Turning the garage into living space Most buyers still want parking, storage, or a workshop space. Instead: Keep it functional, organized, and clean. Removing the only bathtub Families with kids usually WANT at least one tub. Instead: Upgrade it with a modern tub or clean tub/shower combo. Going overboard on a luxury kitchen Spending $80K doesn’t always mean buyers will pay $80K more. Instead: Focus on smart upgrades like counters, lighting, hardware, and appliances. DIY projects without permits Unpermitted electrical, plumbing, or additions can scare buyers fast during inspections. Instead: Pull permits and keep records. Removing a bedroom for a giant closet or gym. Bedroom count matters BIG in real estate searches. Instead: Keep it legally a bedroom and stage it however you want. Installing carpet everywhere A lot of buyers today prefer hard flooring because it feels cleaner, brighter, and easier to maintain. Instead: Luxury vinyl plank, hardwood, or tile usually has broader appeal. Super bold paint colors or trendy wallpaper What feels cool to you can feel like extra work to buyers. Instead: Stick with light neutral tones that photograph well online. Save this before your next remodel in Lubbock. Thinking about selling and wondering which upgrades are ACTUALLY worth it?

Do NOT buy a house in Lubbock without doing this ↓ 1. Calculate the 28/36 rule Take your combined, gross monthly income and multiply by .28. This is the highest your mortgage payment *should* be. Now take the same gross monthly income and multiply by .36. This is the highest your total debt payments should be. This isn't always realistic, but it's a starting place to work from - lenders will pre-approve you for more! 2. Calculate the 1% rule Home maintenance will cost you an estimated 1% of the home value. If you're looking at a $500,000 house, you'll need about $5,000 per year for maintenance. Take this a step further and budget for it monthly on top of your mortgage payment. (So $5,000/12 = $416 per month you'll need to set aside). 3. Lower your credit utilization Ask your credit card companies for a credit limit increase (as long as there is no hard credit pull) And start paying your credit card in full before the statement date. This is going to boost your credit & save you $ in interest! 4. Open an emergency fund I recommend having a SEPARATE account for your emergency fund (banks like Ally and Capital One allow sub accounts which are perfect) - Put 3-6 months of expenses in there! If you spend $5,000 per month, aim to have $15,000 MINIMUM in there. 5. Save 3%+ for a down payment Minimum down payments for first-time buyers start at 3%... but look at online mortgage calculators so you can make sure you can afford the monthly payment if you're doing a low down payment. 6. Research closing costs in your state Closing costs are 1-6% of the purchase price - in ADDITION to your down payment. On average, they're around 3% so around $15,000 on a $500k house. 7. Take a free class! Buying a house in Lubbock is the biggest purchase and decision you'll EVER make Don't make the mistake of not knowing the process first.

Don't fall for these first time home buyer mistakes ↓ 1.You ONLY budgeted for the mortgage. You didn't include HOA, property taxes and utilities into your monthly payments. Don't forget the extra fees you'll be responsible for. 2. Just because you CAN afford it doesn't mean you SHOULD buy it. What does your lifestyle look like? What do you want it to look like? Having every dime tied in a mortgage is never a good idea, if you buy the cheaper home, what does that allow you to do? 3. You used all your money at closing. You used every dime possible for your down payment and closing costs. If the AC goes out in the middle of summer, a major appliance breaks, the list goes on. 4. You took the advice of a coworker, relative, zillow, etc. and none of them warned you about appreciation and depreciation, equity loss, and the cost of future planning. The point is, buying a home should put ahead, not behind. Be sure to follow for more first time homebuyer advice from a real life Lubbock real estate agent

When you buy a home with your spouse, how your names are listed on the deed actually matters a lot more than most people realize. (check laws within your state/country , always work w a lawyer on all legal matters too ) In many cases, holding title as “Joint Tenants with Right of Survivorship” means if something ever happens to one spouse, the home automatically goes to the other no probate, no extra court, no unnecessary stress during an already hard time. It’s a small detail but it can make a huge difference for your peace of mind and your family’s future. This is the kind of stuff I make sure my clients understand not just buying the house, but protecting it too. If you’re buying with a partner or spouse, let’s talk through your options.

DO NOT make these mistakes ↓ DO NOT buy a car If you can, wait until after you buy a house to get a new car. If you’re getting a lease or car loan, it will impact your credit score which will lower the amount you’re approved for! INSTEAD, proactively work on your credit score - one thing you can do is pay your credit cards off early to lower your credit utilization ratio! DO NOT schedule tours on zillow when you’re seriously looking! INSTEAD, search in the multiple listing service (MLS) with an experienced, first-time buyer agent The MLS will give you access to the most up-to-date and accurate home listing data! DO NOT deposit cash into your bank account! Lenders look at your last 2 bank statements & if cash is not able to be traceable, you can’t use it! INSTEAD, keep all your money in a high yield savings account that is dedicated to your house fund! DO NOT get pre-approved for your absolute max! INSTEAD, decide the monthly payment that YOU feel comfortable with! You can use the 28% rule as a starting place - this says that your mortgage payment should not be more than 28% of your gross income! DO NOT make a major career change! INSTEAD, it’s usually ok to make a job change or get a promotion, as long as it’s within the same industry and your income is salaried. If you make bonus or commission income, you usually need 1-2 years of history. DO NOT use a big bank or online lender! INSTEAD, use a local lender so you have reliable service! DO NOT wait until your lease is almost up to get started! INSTEAD, start getting prepared when your 6-12 months out, and then start looking for homes when you’re 3-4 months out! DO NOT just wing the process - there’s way too much money at stake! Follow me for more !

INSTEAD, keep all your money in a high yield savings account that is dedicated to your house fund! DO NOT get pre-approved for your absolute max! INSTEAD, decide the monthly payment that YOU feel comfortable with! You can use the 28% rule as a starting place - this says that your mortgage payment should not be more than 28% of your gross income! DO NOT make a major career change! INSTEAD, it’s usually ok to make a job change or get a promotion, as long as it’s within the same industry and your income is salaried. If you make bonus or commission income, you usually need 1-2 years of history. DO NOT use a big bank or online lender! INSTEAD, use a local lender so you have reliable service! DO NOT wait until your lease is almost up to get started! INSTEAD, start getting prepared when your 6-12 months out, and then start looking for homes when you’re 3-4 months out! DO NOT just wing the process - there’s way too much money at stake! Follow me for more !

That trend isn’t heading in the right direction The average age keeps climbing and I don’t think we should just sit back and let it. Homeownership shouldn’t feel like something you finally get around to decades later. With the right plan, I promise you it’s possible sooner than most people think. I’m genuinely on a mission to bring that number back down If you want to be ahead of the “average,” Follow me !
