𝗖𝗨𝗥𝗥𝗘𝗡𝗧 𝗛𝗢𝗨𝗦𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗠𝗔𝗥𝗞𝗘𝗧 🏠🏠 March showed signs of a resilient housing economy. Although fewer new resale listings are coming on the market monthly than in previous years, the market is following a typical seasonal pattern. We begin to see an increase in monthly new listings coming on the market starting in the spring, pre-summer, and summer months before simmering down in the fall and again over the winter. The more affordable and mid-price+ ranges show strong price support due to the Sales Activity Intensity™ for new resale listings and shortage of unsold properties. Remember, it’s okay to buy and well within the same market timing at today’s market price.

VA loans, also known as Veterans Affairs home loans, are an excellent option for eligible military personnel, veterans, and their families. 🏠🤝 Here are several reasons why VA loans are considered to be the best type of home loan: No Down Payment Required: One of the most significant advantages of VA loans is that eligible borrowers can purchase a home with no down payment required. This can be a significant financial relief for those who may not have saved up enough money for a down payment. No Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI): Unlike other types of loans, VA loans do not require borrowers to pay for private mortgage insurance (PMI). This can save borrowers hundreds or even thousands of dollars over the life of the loan. Competitive Interest Rates: VA loans typically offer competitive interest rates, which can save borrowers thousands of dollars in interest over the life of the loan. Flexible Credit Requirements: VA loans have flexible credit requirements, which can make it easier for borrowers with less-than-perfect credit to qualify. Additionally, VA loans often offer lower interest rates than other types of loans, even for borrowers with lower credit scores. Streamlined Refinancing Options: VA loans also offer streamlined refinancing options, which can make it easier for borrowers to lower their monthly payments or shorten the term of their loan. Lifetime Benefits: Once a borrower has been approved for a VA loan, they are eligible for lifetime benefits, which means they can use their VA loan entitlement to purchase a new home or refinance their existing loan in the future. In conclusion, VA loans are an excellent option for eligible military personnel, veterans, and their families. With no down payment required, no PMI, competitive interest rates, flexible credit requirements, and streamlined refinancing options, VA loans are considered to be the best type of home loan!
