MYTH: Self-employed people can’t get mortgages.

FACT: Self-employed buyers can absolutely qualify but documentation matters. Lenders may look at your tax returns, business financials, or use stated-income programs. It’s more paperwork but that’s what I’m here for.

Being your own boss doesn’t mean you can’t own a home. 😎 Yes, it’s paperwork. No, it’s not impossible.

MYTH: You should wait until HOME PRICES drop to buy.

FACT: Trying to time the market is risky. If rates drop, competition usually increases which can push home prices up. Sometimes buying at a slightly higher rate with less competition and refinancing later when rates drop can make more sense.

Rates might drop… timing the market is tricky. Don’t gamble on timing the market. Buy smart now, refinance later if needed.

MYTH: Fixed rates are always better than variable rates.

FACT: Neither is “always” better; it depends on your risk tolerance, timeline, and market conditions. Fixed rates give stability and predictable payments. Variable rates often start lower and can save money if rates drop but the opposite could happen. The best option depends on your financial comfort and long-term plan.

Your cousin says fixed rates are best. Your friend says variable rate is smarter. Who’s right? Both can be right… for the right person. Let’s find the option that fits your plan.
