Home Equity: A Goldmine for Homeowners!
🌟 Written by Krista Klause, Your Trusted San Antonio Realtor 🌟
🔑 Have you been a homeowner for a few years? Here's something crucial you need to know – Home Equity! 🔑
🤔 What's Home Equity? Freddie Mac puts it simply: "🏠💰 Your home’s equity is the difference between your home's value and your mortgage balance. 💰🏠"
This means as you pay down your mortgage 📉 and as home values increase 📈, your equity grows! 🚀
📉 Last year, home prices slightly dipped, but guess what? They've been on the rise in many areas since then! 📈
🗞️ From the Latest Equity Insights Report by Selma Hepp, Chief Economist at CoreLogic: 🗞️ "With price gains boosting homeowner wealth, equity hit a new high 🌟, recovering from last year's declines. The average U.S. homeowner gained over $20,000 in equity compared to Q3 2022, and some markets see even larger increases!" 💵📈
🤑 And that's just one year! Long-term? The average homeowner with a mortgage has over $300,000 in equity. 🏠💸
