Mortgage Rates Inch Down
May 11, 2023
This week’s decrease continues a recent sideways trend in mortgage rates, which is a welcome departure from the record increases of last year. While inflation remains elevated, its rate of growth has moderated and is expected to decelerate over the remainder of 2023. This should bode well for the trajectory of mortgage rates over the long-term.

Hello! Summer Salutations!
Hope you all enjoy this month's newsletter and find it informative of what's going on here in this BEAUTIFUL area!

There is no place like California! We have an amazing environment and incredible recreational, social and leisure opportunities in the Bay Area that merge to create an unsurpassed quality of life for active adults and families alike.

I am a Realtor who has a demonstrated history in real estate sales in local neighborhoods and active adult communities. I have passion for connecting people with great homes to grow memories at every stage of life! Growing up in the Pacific Northwest, I graduated from the University of Oregon with degrees in business and sociology, as well as a love for wellness and outdoor activities. After graduating, I worked as a resident director for on campus housing while pursuing my masters in counseling. I quickly realized the career that blends both housing needs with finely tuned listening and negotiation skills is Real Estate, and I have never looked back.

I became a licensed Broker in Oregon in 2005 and then licensed in Washington soon after. After nearly 11 years of traditional real estate in the Northwest, Myself and family relocated to the beautiful East Bay area and fell in love with the quaint charm, rolling hills and great weather. I represented two national builders in the Brentwood, CA area as a senior community representative and community sales manager in active adult communities for over three years. That experience allowed me to develop an expertise in resort communities and learn all about my clients living a 55 and better lifestyle to the fullest.

I am looking forward to hearing your story and sharing my wealth of knowledge about our local area and how to make your next real estate dreams come true.

Take Care!

Lydia E. Sale at Trilogy Rio Vista - Rio Vista
Excellent Service and Communication From the first time we met Katie when she toured us around the Trilogy community and took us to see different homes with different floor plans. Katie was pleasant, in good communication and obviously an experienced real estate agent. As we worked with her to get our new dream home, she helped us overcome barriers, gave us suggestions on how to handle different issues that came up and was a tremendous help in our home buying process. We highly recommend her to anyone who needs to buy (or sell) their home. Thank You Lydia!
