10 years from now, today’s home prices might look a whole lot different. 🏡

Ask someone who bought in 2016. At the time, they probably thought they were paying too much, too.

The lesson? You can’t predict the perfect time to buy, but you CAN make a smart plan for when the time is right for you.

It’s not just about the purchase price. It’s about the mortgage strategy behind it.

📲 Let’s talk about what buying a home in today’s Utah housing market could look like for you.

You can’t opt out of housing. Unless you plan on living with your parents for the rest of your life, renting vs. owning is a decision you have to make.

Over the course of your lifetime, shelter is a 7- or 8-figure expense. Every single dollar goes somewhere—either toward your own long-term equity or your landlord's wealth.

In this clip from the Loans Elevated Podcast, Brady Mullin (former Certified Financial Planner with 20+ years of experience) explains why the disparity between the right and wrong housing choice is massive.

Everyone’s watching the rate. Something else is watching your payment. 👀

Rate gets all the attention. But it’s only one line of the number you actually pay every month. Hiding behind it:

- Property taxes: they swing by location, sometimes by
hundreds 🏠

- Homeowners insurance: the home, the coverage, the zip
code all move it ⛈️

- Mortgage insurance: depends on your loan structure and
down payment 👻

- HOA dues: that “small” fee still counts when you qualify 🚪

- Loan structure: points, buydowns and loan type change both upfront cost and monthly 🔨

The scariest surprise isn’t a high rate. It’s falling in love with a house, then finding out what the complete payment actually looks like. 🫣

Don’t just watch the rate. Build the right strategy.

Let the Lassig Team run your complete numbers before you start haunting Zillow. 🎃

Selling vs. Renting: How to Decide What’s Right for You 🏡A lot of homeowners who locked in low rates a few years ago assume keeping their home as a rental is a total no-brainer. But the reality? It depends.
In our latest discussion, we break down how to weigh your options:
🔹 Run the numbers: Will renting it out cash flow, or can you free up more monthly cash by cashing out equity and wiping out existing debts?
🔹 Watch the clock: To keep your tax exemption on capital gains, you must have lived in the home for 2 of the last 5 years. Wait past year 3, and you could be on the hook for capital gains taxes or forced into a 1031 exchange.
🔹 Factor in upcoming maintenance: Aging roofs, HVAC units, or pending HOA assessments can quickly erase your rental returns.

Higher rates don’t exactly make buyers excited… but having room to negotiate might. 👀🏡

Less competition can mean more time to decide, more room to ask for repairs, and opportunities to negotiate seller-paid closing costs.

The key? Finding a home AND a payment that work for you.

Wondering what that could look like? Send us a message. Let’s run the numbers together.

It’s worth running the numbers before counting yourself out. Message us today and we’ll see what it could look like for you!
