I got to speak with KSHB 41 about what to expect in the 2022 housing market. 🏡 My key points for buyers and sellers:

👉🏻For Buyers: Even though interest rates are anticipated to rise in the coming months, these rates are STILL historically low!

📈For Sellers: Home values are continuing the rise...this isn't price inflation, it's price appreciation caused from a lack of supply and very high demand. It's still a seller's market!

If you've been looking for a house but you're having trouble getting an offer accepted, our realtor Kathleen Spiking, ReeceNichols gave some advice on 41 Action News - KSHB-TV this morning!

Most buyers are focused on move in-ready houses, but fixer-uppers are a hidden gem. If you don't want to completely renovate a house, don't worry! Sometimes all a "fixer-upper" needs is a one-room facelift. These houses could be a good option because have less competition among buyers, and in Kansas City, MO they're selling for an average of 55% less than move in-ready homes.

Check out the rest of Kathleen's interview here for more tips: http://bit.ly/KSHB-Kathleen-Spiking-5-11-21

This morning I was on 41 Action News - KSHB-TV to talk about Kansas City home buyers looking at fixer uppers in this competitive seller's market
👀Watch here: https://corekc.me/3fczsZ6
Here's a recap:
Why are we in a sellers market?
1️⃣ Interest rates are historically low still
2️⃣More millennials are entering the housing market after delaying home ownership longer than any other generation
3️⃣ The pandemic created a demand for more space

Things to think about when buying a fixer upper:
✅Don’t skip the inspection! Take this time to find out the true condition of the home AND get bids for the big stuff.
✅Always have a buffer built into your overall renovation budget. Surprises happen!
✅ Call your local lender to talk about renovation loan options to help finance your project
✅ Be patient! More homes are coming on the market.

📲Call or text me if you have questions about buying a fixer upper!

We wrote a competitive offer and swiped that sucker up before anyone else could see it 💪🏻 This market is brutal but y’all came out on top! So many congrats to you both and your family!!! 💙💙💙

🙋🏻‍♀️The way to go under contract in this savage market is to get creative, be competitive, and have an agent that works hard for you.
