Home insurance costs have gone up – but the good news is the rise isn't projected to be as steep this year.

Thinking about moving in 2026? Where you live (or plan to live) could make a big difference.

A lot of people may think their credit score isn’t good enough to buy a home. That may be because the median buyer’s score is pretty high (775) – so people assume they need near-perfect credit. But that’s not necessarily the case.

You never really know when the right house is going to hit the market, but being prepared puts you one step ahead when it does.

Wondering if you’re ready to buy a home in 2026? You’ll want to consider everything from your budget to your personal finances, your timelines, goals, and more.

There’s nothing quite like the comfort of your own home. It’s where you hang your coat, kick off your shoes, and breathe a little deeper with the ones you love. Where the little things – like morning coffee in your kitchen or a quiet evening in a homemade fort – feel like everything.

Your next home doesn’t need to check every box on your wish list. It just needs to check the right ones.

Remember when it felt impossible to find a home to buy that actually checked all of your boxes? That’s changed.

Admit it – you’re kind of afraid of today’s mortgage rates, aren’t you?

Have you heard how much this year’s shift in mortgage rates could save you?

There’s a lot to digest when it comes to understanding how mortgage rates shift and change over time, and we aren’t going to get into all of that today. But if there’s one thing to watch on where they’re likely headed, it’s the 10-year treasury yield.

Spoiler Alert: October is officially the best month to buy a home in 2025.

Experts are projecting single-digit price increases in many markets this year. Some areas will even experience slight declines. That’s a far cry from the 20% rise we saw just a few years ago.

Saving to buy a home? Don’t forget your closing costs.
