National Homeownership Month isn't just about buying a house.

It's about what a home represents inside a larger financial life.

For current homeowners, that might mean thinking about how your home connects to your broader goals. For those still renting, it might mean revisiting the timeline and understanding what steps could move things forward.

Either way, housing is one of the biggest financial decisions most people make—and it deserves more than a passing thought once a year.

If you'd like to talk through how your home fits into your bigger financial picture, I'm always happy to have that conversation.

🌳🧺 Happy International Picnic Day! 🧺🌳

Today is the perfect reminder to step outside, enjoy nature, and create beautiful memories with family and friends. Whether it's a picnic in the park, a backyard gathering, or a peaceful lunch under the trees, take time to relax, laugh, and appreciate the simple joys of life.

Pack your favorite snacks, bring a cozy blanket, and celebrate the beauty of togetherness. 🌞🍉🥪

Here's a number worth sitting with: as of late 2025, the U.S. homeownership rate stands at 65.7%.

That's roughly two out of every three households.

And it's held steady—even through elevated mortgage rates and shifting market conditions.

What that tells us is that homeownership is still deeply woven into how Americans build their financial lives. It remains one of the most common ways families create memories and connect with the community.

If you're among those two-thirds, this month is a good moment to reflect on what that decision has meant for your household. If you're working toward it, know that millions of others have walked that same road.

We were honored to be one of the sponsors of the Big Bones Gala and had such a great time supporting an incredible cause! 🐾❤️

The evening was a huge success, with Big Bones exceeding their fundraising goal of $80,000 by more than $20,000—raising over $100,000 to help dogs in need. How amazing is that?!

A huge congratulations to everyone involved, and thank you to all who donated and supported this wonderful nonprofit. If you'd still like to contribute, Big Bones accepts donations year-round and every dollar makes a difference.

We're grateful to have been part of such a special event and are already looking forward to hopefully supporting another gala next year! 🎉

June is National Homeownership Month—a time to recognize what homeownership means to millions of Americans.

It's more than a roof and four walls. For many families, it's where milestones happen. First steps, first dinners around your own table, the feeling of pulling into a driveway that's yours.

According to a 2025 Coldwell Banker survey, 85% of Americans still consider owning a home a key part of the American Dream.

That says something.

Whether you've owned for decades or you're still working toward it, this month is about honoring that aspiration and the meaning behind it. 🏡
