Downsizing in Mountain's Edge
Your low rate isn't the whole story. Your equity is. We plan the move to a smaller home around it.
You may not have to leave
Many people downsizing in Mountain's Edge love the neighborhood: the parks, the trails, the mountain views. What they want is one level and less house. Here's the good news: some sections of Mountain's Edge offer single-story homes on larger lots. So downsizing doesn't necessarily mean moving away. It can mean moving a few streets over.

Your rate isn't the whole story
The worry we hear most is, "I don't want to give up my low interest rate." We start somewhere else. Could the equity in your current Mountain's Edge home pay off the smaller one? If it can, the new rate barely matters. If it covers most of it, a big down payment keeps the monthly payment small. Then we choose a payment you're comfortable with.
Rates were around 6.75% in September 2026 and they change. In my view, prices are softer while rates are high, which can help on the buying side.
Doing it in order
You can sell first and buy with money in hand. One of our clients sold a larger two-story home first, stayed in a weekly rental for about a month, and then closed on a smaller one-story home. Your current home gets our full process: a CMA against Mountain's Edge listings, help getting it ready, photos, video, a community video, targeted ads, weekly updates and every offer side by side.

HOA dues in Mountain's Edge averaged about $100 a month as of September 2026, so compare dues carefully when you look elsewhere. Our downsizing page has more. Let's run your numbers.
