Three Numbers That Could Impact Your Monthly Payment

Everyone’s stressing about interest rates…
But the truth?

They’re just one piece of the puzzle.

Here are 3 numbers that could impact your monthly payment way more than you think:
1️⃣ Purchase Price – Obvious, but every $10K makes a difference
2️⃣ Property Taxes – Vary wildly by neighborhood in [Your Area]
3️⃣ HOA Fees – That cute condo with the pool? It might come with $350/month dues

When you look at the big picture, a slightly higher rate might not hurt as much as a sky-high HOA or overpaying for the zip code.

Plus… local tip: 🏡
In this market, some areas are holding value while others are seeing small price drops, and knowing where to look can save you thousands.

📲 DM me if you want help running the numbers before you start shopping, no pressure, just real talk from your local agent bestie.
