Who’s Buying Homes with Cash Right Now?

More than 1 in 4 homes are being bought with cash right now. But here's something that might surprise you about who's buying them.

It's not just wealthy investors swooping in with deep pockets.

A lot of these cash buyers are everyday homeowners who've built up serious equity over the years. And that equity is giving them more buying power than they may have ever imagined.

According to Cotality, the average homeowner with a mortgage has about $310,000 in equity.

Think about what that could mean for your next move.

You might have enough equity to buy your next home outright. No mortgage payment. No worrying about today's interest rates.

And even if you can't pay all cash, that equity could help you borrow significantly less.

But what if you're buying with a mortgage?

Here's some good news: Nearly 3 out of 4 homebuyers are still using financing. You're actually in the majority.

So don't let the headlines about cash buyers make you second-guess what's possible for you. Whether you're buying your first home or using equity to make your next move, there may be more opportunities than you think.

Wondering how you stack up in today's market? Send me a message. Let's talk about your options.

Want a More Affordable Home? Don’t Overlook Condos.

When you picture buying your first home, chances are you’re imagining a traditional single-family house with its own yard, maybe a garage, and little extra room to grow. But with affordability still tight, getting everything on that list right away may come with a higher price tag than you’re co...

🏡 What does it take to keep up with the demands of being part of a top producing real estate team?

For Travis, the answer is simple. You have to genuinely love what you do.

❤️ There’s nothing more rewarding than helping a seller get the price they deserve for their home or handing buyers the keys to a place they can finally call their own.

But that passion goes far beyond the transaction.

🔨 With his background in construction and years of experience working with homes, Travis isn't afraid to roll up his sleeves and get involved.

Whether it's coordinating staging, improving landscaping, preparing a property for the market, or even getting up on a roof to take care of something that needs attention, he's willing to go above and beyond to help his clients get the best possible results.

💪 Being part of a top producing team comes with long days, high expectations, and plenty of pressure. But when you're passionate about what you do, the hard work has a purpose.

For Travis, it's not just about selling another home. It's about the people, the relationships, the challenges, and the satisfaction of knowing he made a difference.

That's what drives him every single day.

🏡 One of the biggest lessons Travis has learned after years in real estate? It’s not just about understanding properties. It’s about understanding people.

❤️ Behind every real estate transaction, there’s a story. Sometimes it’s the excitement of buying your first home, welcoming a new baby, or starting a new chapter. Other times, it’s navigating a divorce, a difficult transition, or saying goodbye to a home filled with memories.

Every situation is different, and every client deserves to be understood.

🤝 That’s why being a great real estate agent requires more than knowing the market. It takes patience, empathy, compassion, strong communication, and the ability to adapt to each person’s circumstances.

For Travis, it’s about understanding what his clients are going through, guiding them with confidence, protecting their interests, and making sure every decision is approached with both care and strategy.

Because at the end of the day, real estate isn't just about buying and selling homes. It's about helping people navigate some of the most important moments of their lives.

🏠 ORANGE COUNTY HOUSING REPORT, October 2026 📊

Rates rise, housing stalls. Surging mortgage rates are bringing an already sluggish OC market to a crawl. 📉

🏠 By the numbers: 1,755 closed sales in August, down 6% year over year | 4,924 homes for sale | 118 days of expected market time, the highest since the 2020 lockdowns | demand at just 1,249 pending sales, the weakest October since 2007. Source: Reports on Housing, October 12, 2026.

⚖️ The takeaway? Buyers have negotiating power they haven’t seen in years, but 7.5% rates are the gatekeeper. Sellers, sharp pricing wins. This market punishes wishful thinking.

📩 This is only the snapshot. DM us for a copy of the full report with every chart and number.
