"Keeping the Main Thing the Main Thing"
VOLUME THREE ISSUE FOUR | 2022 Publisher: Gambino Realtors Editor: Kathy Heeren-Ellis Design: Sarah E. Diamond
Perhaps you have heard this maxim before. It is not certain who first coined this phrase, but many believe it was Henry Ford.
goodwill with the other party and lead to a more enjoyable transaction. If something else comes up later, it may be your turn to ask for a favor.
The principle behind this saying is pretty straightforward in concept, but not so easy to follow in real life. Too easily we are distracted by other influences and can lose sight of what is most important; our “Main Thing”
Every situation is unique, but in all cases, it will help if we take a step back and review our “Main Thing” and then measure the proper response.
Buying and selling a home can be a complicated undertaking. There are forms, laws, inspections, loans, moving dates, and on top of all of that, emotions. It is certainly understandable that with the stress and emotions involved, we can sometimes lose sight of the “Main Thing” which is to have a home that fulfills our needs and wishes. Smaller details can become stressful hurdles where someone must win and someone else must lose.
Your Gambino REALTORS broker is trained and experienced in problem-solving and will be your advocate and adviser to help you remember to “Keep the Main Thing the Main Thing”.

HOW TODAY’S MORTGAGE RATES IMPACT YOUR HOME PURCHASE “Get preapproved with where rates are today, but
also consider what would happen if rates were to go up, say another quarter of a point, . . . Know what that would do to your monthly costs and how comfortable you are with that, so that if rates do move higher, you already know how you need to adjust in response. ”
I
f you’re planning to buy a home, it’s critical to understand the relationship between mortgage rates and your purchasing power. Purchasing power is the amount of home you can afford to buy that’s within your financial reach. Mortgage rates directly impact the monthly payment you’ll have on the home you purchase. So, when rates rise, so does the monthly payment you’re able to lock in on your home loan. In a rising-rate environment like we’re in today, that could limit your future purchasing power. Today, the average 30-year fixed mortgage rate is above 5%, and in the near term, experts say that’ll likely go up in the months ahead. You have the opportunity to get ahead of that increase if you buy now before that impacts your purchasing power. 10 | GRHG | VOLUME THREE | ISSUE FIVE | 2022
Mortgage Rates Play a Large Role in Your Home Search The chart below can help you understand the general relationship between mortgage rates and a typical monthly mortgage payment within a range of loan amounts. Let’s say your budget allows for a monthly mortgage payment in the $2,100-$2,200 range. The green in the chart indicates a payment within that range, while the red is a payment that exceeds it (see chart to the right): As the chart shows, you’re more likely to exceed your target payment range as mortgage rates increase unless you pursue a lower home loan amount. If you’re ready to buy a home, use this as your motivation to purchase now so you can get ahead of rising rates before you have to make the decision to decrease what you borrow in order to stay comfortably within your budget. Work with Trusted Advisors To Know Your Budget and Make a Plan It’s critical to keep your budget top of mind as you’re searching for a home. Danielle Hale, Chief Economist at realtor.com, puts it best, advising that buyers should: “Get preapproved with where rates are today, but also consider what would happen if rates were to go up, say another quarter of a point, . . . Know what that would do to your monthly costs and how comfortable you are with that, so that if rates do move higher, you already know how you need to adjust in response.” No matter what, the best strategy is to work with your real estate advisor and a trusted lender to create a plan that takes rising mortgage rates into consideration. Together, you can look at your budget based on where rates are today and craft a strategy so you’re ready to adjust as rates change. Even small increases in mortgage rates can impact your purchasing power. If you’re in the process of buying a home, it’s more important than ever to have a strong plan. Let’s connect so you have a trusted real estate advisor and a lender on your side who can help you strategize to achieve your dream of homeownership this season.

SPRING ROASTED POTATO SALAD Presented by Kathy Heeren-Ellis
This is not your average potato salad! With fresh asparagus, arugula and a tangy lemony vinaigrette, it’s the perfect accompaniment to your meat fresh off the grill! Don’t be alarmed by the total time from prep to table – that’s simply for the veggies to roast! It’s so simple - toss, roast, and eat!
INGREDIENTS Dressing 1/4 cup olive oil 1/4 cup finely chopped shallots 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard 1 teaspoon honey 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon pepper
Salad 2 lb baby Yukon gold or red potatoes (each about 1 1/2 inches in diameter), cut in half 2 tablespoons olive oil 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 lb fresh asparagus spears, cut into 2-inch pieces (about 3 cups) 3 cups baby arugula
INSTRUCTIONS Heat oven to 450°F. Spray 18x13-inch rimmed baking pan with cooking spray. In small bowl, mix dressing ingredients with whisk. Place potatoes in center of baking pan, and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of the oil; sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Toss to coat. Spread in single layer in pan. Roast 30 minutes, turning once. In medium bowl, toss asparagus with remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Remove potatoes from oven, and arrange asparagus on baking pan with potatoes. Roast 5 to 7 minutes or until potatoes are lightly browned and asparagus is tender. Transfer roasted vegetables to serving bowl. Add dressing; toss to coat. Let stand 15 minutes to allow vegetables to absorb dressing. Add arugula; toss to combine. Serve immediately.

YOUR HOME MAY BE CLOSER TO LIST THAN YOU THINK
O
ne of the biggest concerns for a homeowner looking to sell is the time they’ll have to put in before listing their house. If that’s the case for you, you should know – your home might be closer to list-ready than you think in today’s housing market. A survey of recent sellers from realtor.com finds that many were able to get their house ready in less than a month. The survey states: “With many homeowners expecting a quick sale, and in many cases a lack of contingencies, the preparation process took less than a month for over 50% of home sellers this past year, with 20% completing it in less than two weeks.” Those sellers expecting to sell quickly are following recent buyer trends. With mortgage rates and home prices rising, buyers in today’s market are serious about finding a home quickly. But with the limited number of homes for sale, there are very few options for those buyers to choose from. That means many may be willing to take on projects after they purchase. Because of this, you may be able to focus on less time-consuming tasks before putting your house on the market. According to the survey mentioned above, some of the top things recent sellers completed before listing over the past year include landscaping, making minor cosmetic updates, and touching-up paint (see image bottom right). A Real Estate Advisor Will Help Streamline the Process and Keep You Focused Of course, each situation is different, and knowing what repairs or updates your house needs to stand out in your local area is critical. That’s where a Gambino Realtors comes in. Gambino Agents know the ins and outs of the market in your specific area. They’ll help you identify the places where you should and shouldn’t spend your time and money – and that can enable you to list quickly. If you’re ready to take advantage of the incredible conditions for sellers in today’s real estate market but are worried about the time it’ll take to get your home ready, you might be closer than you think. Let’s connect so you can see what you need to do before listing your house today. Call Gambino Realtors at 815.282.2222.
