That low mortgage rate might only last 2 years.
A 2-1 buydown lowers your rate at first, then it steps up. On a $600K loan, that’s about +$750/month in year three.
Can you afford year three today? Budget for the real payment.

A real estate decision deserves experience you can put to work.
Mine started in a New Jersey construction family. It grew through the Marine Corps, The Citadel, leading a global project management team, and an Executive MBA at the College of Charleston.
Each shaped how I work: look closely, prepare thoroughly, take responsibility, and follow through.
I’ve called Charleston home for nearly two decades, renovating, investing in, and selling homes here. I bring that perspective to the questions we ask, the properties we evaluate, and the strategy we build around your goals.
At Coastal Collective Group, you also have a team with defined roles and systems to keep the details moving.
Moving south? Finding a second home? Buying or selling in Charleston? Let’s put that experience to work for you.
Message me “CHARLESTON” and tell me what you’re considering. Let’s map out your next move.
