It's Never Too Late To Find Your Real Purpose
As we enter a brand new year, many of us get stuck on a reflection of what truly fulfills us.
And with the added pressure of being a retiree, the challenge of figuring out what you are really meant to be doing can be daunting,
With the demanding years of work and family responsibilities behind you, you finally have time to explore your deeper purpose – but financial constraints can stand in the way of these dreams.
Whether it’s starting a small business, writing that long-planned memoir, mastering watercolors, researching family history, or giving back through volunteer work, pursuing these passions shouldn’t be limited by financial worries. This is where your home’s equity can be transformative through a reverse mortgage.
A reverse mortgage lets you access tax-free funds while living payment-free in your home, providing reliable cash flow to support your aspirations. Want to take art classes, travel abroad, or launch a passion project? Your home equity can fuel these dreams without requiring you to take on part-time work or stress about monthly payments.
The home you spent years paying for can now be the foundation for your next chapter. You’ve earned the right to explore what brings you joy and meaning, unburdened by financial constraints. Your equity can provide the freedom to nourish your mind, body, and spirit in whatever way resonates with you.
Let’s discuss how a customized reverse mortgage strategy could help fund your journey of personal growth and purpose in the years ahead. After all, retirement should be about pursuing what matters most to you.
Home Trends For 2025
Real estate pros and home designers weigh in on hot home design trends that may have timeless appeal – and the ones you need to approach with caution. Home trends can be hot one minute but not so hot the next. So, how can you tell which home design trend will survive or even be a classic someday versus one that might fade faster than you can say “carpeted bathroom.”
#1 Home Trend for 2025 - Brassy Fixtures: Brass metals are making a comeback. The last run featured shiny, polished brass that coated kitchens and bathrooms in the 1980s and 1990s. But the more modern look is brushed gold or unlacquered brass.
#2 Home Trend for 2025 - Biophilic Design: Biophilia may sound like a medical condition, but it’s actually a trend centered on increasing a home’s connection to nature. And it’s the top trend that designers, contractors, and homebuilding professionals are identifying for the new year. You can try out this home trend by adding more plants and greenery, filtering in more natural light to the interior, or embracing neutral, earthy color palettes and materials.
#3 Home Trend for 2025 - Wallpaper: Richly patterned wallpaper is predicted to be a hot trend in 2025. We will see more unique, bold-patterned wallpaper featuring geometric shapes or metallic shine. The wallpaper is popping up in smaller areas, like the powder room, or used on the “fifth wall” - the ceiling. Wallpaper is making a huge comeback. It’s taking on the design world as it adds depth and texture to a room instantly.
#4 Home Trend for 2025 - Wood Accents: Wood elements, like ceiling beams, trim, millwork, wall paneling, and cabinetry, are adding natural wood tones back into interiors. Natural materials are gaining prominence in home remodels. Eighty percent of home professionals are identifying natural wood (untreated with paint) as one of the top construction materials for 2025.
#5 Home Trend for 2025 - Hidden Storage: Trends include paying more attention to everyday entries for storage. These might include a small vestibule or hall with a small alcove for shoes, a key drop, or a backpack valet. More storage is coming to kitchens, too. Larger pantries are outfitted with cabinets and countertops to accommodate more food prep. Also, storage is being added throughout the home, like washing machine cupboards at the top of stairs and laundry zone bathrooms.
