When I talk to clients in Oklahoma City about buying or selling a home, the conversation often goes beyond interest rates and square footage. One concept that’s helped a lot of people feel more confident in their decisions is something called Prospect Theory—a behavioral economics idea that explains how we make decisions, especially under uncertainty.
In short, humans are wired to avoid loss more than we are to chase gains. A small win might feel nice, but a small loss? We really feel it. Most people won’t even notice saving a few hundred dollars—but miss out on a home they loved? That sting stays.
That’s why so many buyers and sellers hesitate, thinking waiting is safer. But the truth is, that waiting game can actually cost you more—whether it’s from rising home prices, shifting interest rates, or just missing the perfect property. The market doesn’t need to be “perfect.” What matters more is whether you’re ready.
So if you’re someone who’s been on the fence or watching from the sidelines, this is your sign: let’s talk.
I offer a simple, no-pressure, 25-minute summer strategy session. You tell me your home goals, your timeline, and where you’re feeling stuck. I’ll help you map out clear, actionable next steps—even if you're not quite ready to move yet. It’s not about forcing the process. It’s about putting you in control.
If you’re reading this and thinking, “Omg, this is so me,” I’d love to help. Let’s get ahead of the game—on your terms. 💚
