Why Long-Empty Homes Are More Than an Eyesore
Vacant and neglected homes can attract pests, wildlife and squatters, raising health and safety concerns for neighbors and putting pressure on nearby property values.

Debt-to-income ratio, savings balances and credit scores shape borrowing power, loan terms and readiness to buy a home in today’s market.
