“I think that’s the easiest it’s ever been for me to buy or sell a home!”

Brad Rasmussen -

We had a distressed property in Tacoma that required a lot of repair before we could sell. The task soon became overwhelming and that’s when we contacted Theory Real Estate.  They purchased the property “as is”. Within 3 weeks,  we closed on the deal. The Theory team is amazing!!  Every person we came in contact with was friendly, professional and efficient.

We are new investors to this market. We met Isaac and Alan through a good friend, and we are so thankful to have met them. They are the nicest, caring, most professional, kind-hearted people we have met in a long time. We would recommend these guys to ANYONE.

We have bought 2 homes and sold 1 home with Theory. We would recommend them to all our friends.

We worked with Theory to find our perfect house, but ran into a couple obstacles with the seller. The Theory team was always there with answers and went above and beyond all of our expectations.

Continuing from our last post, some powerful words Continuing from our last post, some powerful words from one of the most powerful women in our Nation's history: Rosa Parks.
Martin Luther King Jr. was an incredible leader wh Martin Luther King Jr. was an incredible leader who is deserving of his own day, but something we've heard frequently over the years is that it's a shame other leaders who were just as important don't often receive the same level of deserved recognition. With that in mind, we felt today would be an appropriate time to share a quote from another important figure: Malcom X.

It’s time for some #RealTalk: if you want to buy It’s time for some #RealTalk: if you want to buy a home in 2022, it’s going to be challenging. Home values are set to increase this year & there will most likely be a lot of competition 🤼‍♂️However this doesn’t mean it’s a BAD time to buy, because you will still see a quick increase in your home’s value after buying which means more equity for you. And it’s ALWAYS better to be paying money toward a home every month than throwing it away on rent 🙅So when the challenge is facing a highly competitive market, it just means you need to PREPARE. Here’s what you should be doing right now if you want to buy in the next year:• Start looking at your finances. Create a spreadsheet that lists your monthly income and EVERY expense you have, set a budget for yourself (even though it's not fun), and stick to it. Start saving ANY amount you can each month. Even if it’s just a small amount, it’s better to save something than nothing at all. Simply starting will make you feel good, and you can build from there!• Find an Agent you trust that won’t pressure you to try to buy before you’re ready and is willing to work with your timeline. If you’re serious about buying, you need a trusted advisor to help you plan & strategize.• Start talking to a lender to find out what steps you need to take to be able to qualify for a mortgage and get Down Payment Assistance if you need it. If you don't know how to start looking for a lender, this is why having a good real estate agent to guide you is important! They will have lending partners that they trust and can connect you.• Start keeping an eye on listings hitting the market in areas you'd like to live. You want to become aware of what homes are selling for relative to what you're looking for (SqFt, bedrooms, yard space, etc) because this will allow you to plan better.Buying a home is one of the best investments you will ever make. While it's likely to be a competitive year in the real estate market, if you start taking these steps NOW, it is completely possible for you to become a homeowner 💯 #TheoryThursday
