Thank you Katie! I appreciate your support in making this possible. 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Katie was absolutely amazing throughout the entire process. Before working with her, I had spoken with three other lenders who were unable to find a way to make the deal work. From my first conversation with Katie, she was knowledgeable, transparent, and very clear about what needed to be done. Whenever we encountered an obstacle, she didn’t just give me one option—she worked through different solutions and guided me every step of the way until we got the deal closed. I truly appreciate her persistence, communication, and expertise. I would absolutely recommend Katie to anyone looking for a lender who genuinely knows how to get deals done.
Katie was absolutely wonderful to work with throughout our home-buying journey. She was knowledgeable, professional, and always took the time to explain every step of the mortgage process in a way that was easy to understand. She was consistently available to answer our questions, no matter how big or small, and made us feel confident and informed every step of the way. Her responsiveness, expertise, and dedication made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and manageable. We truly appreciate all of her hard work and support. We highly recommend Katie to anyone looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, and caring mortgage lender. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
Katie made the process easier than I could've ever imagined. I would gladly recommend my friends and family to work with her in a hearbeat. Thank you, truly, for taking so much of the burden off our plate and helping us close without a hitch.
Thank Katie Demarie for helping me achieve my dream of becoming a home owner. The process was smooth. I really enjoyed working with you
We were disillusioned with our previous mortgage (National) broker. Katie saw their mistakes and brought us a succesful mortgage approval. She understood my "self-employed-Minister" identity and applied her knowledge to gain approval.
Katie, I don't even know how to explain what you have done for me and my family. You were an angel that God placed in our path so that, today, my family and I could enjoy a dream come true. Thank you so much, from the bottom of my heart. May God bless you abundantly.
Being a first time home buyer, 55 and over i think there should have been some assistance somewhere.

Latest market updates
The latest PCE inflation report came in cooler than expected, giving both stocks and bonds a boost. Headline inflation rose just 0.3% for the month, while the year-over-year rate fell from 3.7% to 3.4%, better than forecasts. Core inflation, which excludes food and energy, increased only 0.2% and declined from 3.3% to 3.0% annually.
The softer inflation data could reduce pressure on the Federal Reserve to raise rates immediately. New York Fed President John Williams indicated there is no urgency to act following September’s rate hike, although he still expects another increase may be needed later this year.
One area of concern is consumer finances. The savings rate dropped from 4.6% to 4.1%, its lowest level in four years, suggesting consumers continue to spend while saving less.
The inflation report was encouraging for financial markets and showed meaningful progress toward lower inflation, which could help ease some of the upward pressure on interest rates if the trend continues.

The housing market is shifting in buyers’ favor as more homes become available and competition eases. Redfin reported that,“Sellers outnumbered buyers by 58% in August, the biggest gap in Redfin’s records, driven by a surge in listings and stagnant demand”.
This is the widest gap since Redfin began tracking in 2013. Also interesting is that housing supply reached its highest level in more than a decade, giving buyers more choices and negotiating power.
Affordability remains a challenge, with mortgage rates around 7% and the median existing-home price rising 1.6% year over year. Pending sales and mortgage applications have declined, as high costs and economic uncertainty keep some buyers on the sidelines. Many homeowners are also hesitant to trade their existing low mortgage rates for higher ones.
In some markets, homes are taking longer to sell, prompting sellers to adjust prices and increase marketing efforts. Buyers with substantial cash or home equity are especially well positioned, although the overall sales pace through August remained largely unchanged from last year.
For buyers who are financially ready, greater selection and less competition offer an encouraging opportunity to find a home that fits their needs and budget.
The Federal Reserve raised its benchmark interest rate by 0.25 percentage points, bringing the target range to 3.75%–4.00%. The Fed made the move because they feel that inflation remains elevated, while consumer spending, business investment and the labor market continue to show resilience. Higher rates are intended to slow demand and help return inflation to the Fed’s 2% goal.
Although the Fed does not directly set mortgage rates, its decisions influence the bond market and investors’ inflation expectations. When the Fed hikes rates it can be seen as deflationary since it makes borrowing money more expensive and slows down the movement of money. Bond investors’ arch enemy is inflation so a push from the Fed to fight inflation can garner more attention from investors to purchase more bonds which would help mortgage rates decrease. However, the comments following the policy change put pressure on the bond market since Fed Chair Warsh’s comments were seen as “thin” and he also mentioned inflation is still hanging around.
If inflation cools and the Fed wins the trust of the markets by continuing to fight inflation, we could see rates have a chance to improve, but if the opposite occurs rates could continue their trend and increase more. Oil is also a large factor and if we can get it to drop in price it could also assist mortgage rates to improve.
