February Education Series for Realtors: All Things Interest Rate
Rates: How they work. What affects them. How to sell using rates in today’s market.
Rates have been a hot topic for the last few years. As they plummeted into the low 3’s when COVID hit and then essentially double in 2022 when the country experienced huge inflation numbers. This will not be a boring presentation about rates. We are going to touch on what’s going on overall with rates. However, the main purpose of this event is to show you how a rate is determined for an induvial buyer. We will talk about things buyers can do to help improve the rate they are being offered. We will talk about programs that have very attractive rates and discuss things sellers can do to help lower the rate for a buyer. A lower rate equals more buying power for a home buyer and everything we cover will help agents sell more homes in 2023. The market is back to normal and it’s still a great time to buy.
Hot Topics We Will Cover
Here is a list of some of the things we will cover during the event:
Come learn from one of the best! Speaker Jeremy Drobeck is in the top 1% of loan officers in Michigan. He’s helped thousands of home buyers navigate their way to home and ownership. As the market continues to shift we all have to adapt and find ways to do better. Our educational series this year is dedicated to exactly that. If you need help with anything between now and our next event don’t hesitate to reach out. Can wait to see you there!

Refinance to a 15-Year Mortgage in Michigan: Your 2026 Flight Plan to Debt-Free Homeownership
Would you intentionally hand over an extra six figures in interest just to keep your monthly budget slightly more comfortable? Many homeowners in West Michigan are realizing that the traditional 30-year path feels more like a treadmill than a climb toward true ownership. If you feel like your monthly payments aren’t making a dent in your principal, it’s time to explore how to refinance to 15-year mortgage Michigan options. With 15-year fixed rates in Michigan averaging 6.13% as of late June 2026, the opportunity to stabilize your financial future is here, even with recent market volatility.
It’s natural to feel anxious when your hard-earned money is swallowed by interest turbulence while your retirement date looms closer. We believe your mortgage should be a tool for wealth, not a permanent weight on your shoulders. This guide will show you how a 15-year refinance maneuver can shave a decade off your debt and secure your home equity much faster. We’ll preview current rates in cities like Kalamazoo and Portage, explain the equity requirements for a successful transition, and provide a clear flight plan to reach your destination of debt-free homeownership.
