Lately, I've been hearing from so many renters who feel sidelined by the sheer cost of homeownership—sometimes it’s taking up more than half of their income. Between insurance, taxes, and utilities (which do vary quite a bit depending on where you’re looking), it’s no wonder affordability feels out of reach for many. The 2026 ROAD to Housing Act is aiming to address this, especially by increasing affordable housing options near the places we all want to be. Navigating these challenges takes more than just checking the listings—it’s about understanding how every local factor impacts your bottom line. My approach has always been about listening, caring, and using my experience to help clients find the right fit, even when the numbers feel daunting. If you’re weighing the leap from renting to owning, you’re not alone—let’s make sense of these numbers together.
