Guidance for Homeowners
If you already own your home, it's probably your biggest asset and debt. It's a good idea to perform an annual review of your home equity, mortgage, home insurance and mortgage insurance. Then make adjustments to keep up with your personal and financial goals.
Home Equity
How much equity do you own this year? Weigh the risk-reward of using some to invest in your net worth, retirement or lifestyle goals.
Home Insurance
Could you save money by switching home insurers? Would it be worth the hassle? Compare with a few new quotes.
Mortgage
Could you save money by refinancing? Could you shorten your term without it? Consider the benefits, costs and hassle.
Mortgage Insurance
Is your loan-to-value low enough to remove your mortgage insurance early? Check your mortgage servicer's requirements.

Showcase Agency is a real estate and home loan company. We help our clients build wealth through real estate by buying, selling, investing and leveraging their equity. After closing, we help our clients navigate their personal homeownership journey.
We donate $150 from every real estate and home loan closing to a nonprofit of the client's choosing. One of the nonprofits we support is Operation Underground Railroad. Their global mission is to end human trafficking, including the trafficking of children for sex.
We do not require a pre approval to tour a home but sometimes the listing agent or seller will require one. In those cases, we'll let you know and you can decide what you'd like to do next.
If you're already under contract with a real estate agent, we cannot advise you or show you a home. Sorry. It's a legal thing.
Not intended to solicit buyers or sellers under contract.
