Some of my favorite clients have come from friends, past clients and people in our community who simply said, “You should give Therese a call.”

So today, I’m asking for your help. Do you know someone in Medford, Central Point, Eagle Point, Jacksonville, Grants Pass or the surrounding Southern Oregon area who is thinking about selling their home?

I would truly appreciate an introduction. Whether they’re ready to sell now or just starting to think about it, I’m always happy to answer questions and help them understand their options. Referrals are one of the greatest compliments you can give a Realtor. Thank you for thinking of me!

Protect Your Home During Wildfire Season

Wildfire season is also a good reminder to spend a few minutes protecting your home.

• Clear leaves and dry debris from gutters and around your home.

• Keep grass mowed and trim back vegetation near structures.

• Make sure your address is clearly visible from the street.

• Review your homeowners insurance coverage and create a quick home inventory with photos.

• Have an evacuation plan so your family knows what to do if conditions change.

Preparing now can provide peace of mind later.

Latest National Average Mortgage Rates 30-Year Fixed: 6.78% 15-Year Fixed: 6.11% Mortgage rates have ticked up this week but remain below 7%.

While higher rates can affect affordability, buyers can often improve their options by comparing multiple lenders, exploring different loan programs, and negotiating seller concessions. Even a small difference in your interest rate can make a significant impact over the life of your loan.

If you’re thinking about buying, selling, or simply want to understand what these rates mean for the Southern Oregon market, I’d be happy to help.

■ Warm, Dry & Fire Season Is Here
It’s warm, it’s dry, and unfortunately fires are burning in many areas across Oregon.
This is the time of year when we all need to be extra careful. A small spark can quickly become
something much bigger when vegetation is dry.
• Be careful with outdoor equipment that can create sparks
• Make sure trailer chains aren’t dragging
• Follow local fire restrictions
• Keep dry grass and debris cleared away from your home
• Have an evacuation plan and know what you would take if you needed to leave quickly
And most importantly, a heartfelt thank you to our firefighters, first responders and everyone
working to protect our Oregon communities. ❤■
Please stay safe and look out for one another.

Mortgage rates have moved up a bit, but that doesn’t mean buyers should automatically put their plans on hold.

Every buyer’s situation is different, and the rate you’re offered depends on factors such as credit, down payment, loan program, and lender. Shopping around and having a good lending team can make a difference. If you’re thinking about buying or selling in Southern Oregon, I’m always happy to help you look at the bigger picture and decide what makes sense for you.
