Rents have risen quickly due to high inflation. One benefit of homeownership is that it allows you to lock in what’s typically your largest monthly expense: your housing payment. That makes owning a home a great hedge against inflation. Ready to begin your home search? DM me.

If you’re trying to buy a home, you’re likely watching mortgage rates closely. While some experts say the largest rate increases may be behind us, they’re still projected to rise in the coming months. If you have questions about the homebuying process or why it still may make sense to buy this fall, DM me today.

If you’re thinking of selling your house, you haven’t missed your window. That’s because you’ve likely gained a significant amount of equity if you’ve owned your home for more than a few years. To learn about how your equity can help you when you move this fall, DM me.

Wondering what's going to happen with home prices over the next few years? According to a survey of over 100 housing market experts, home prices will moderate from the peak we saw during the pandemic. But the consensus among experts is they won't fall nationally. DM me today if you have questions about home prices in our area.

Wondering what to expect if you buy a home this fall? Experts say you can expect less competition from other buyers as the housing market cools. That likely means fewer bidding wars, which is great news if you’ve been outbid in the past. DM me if you’re ready to explore options in our area this fall.

Owning a home may be a better bet than renting one. That’s because landlords are more likely to increase your rent when inflation is high like today. If you buy a home, you can lock in and stabilize your monthly payment for 15-30 years. If you’re ready to move on from renting, DM me today.

Equity is a shining star in today’s housing market. Why? The average equity per mortgage holder is the highest it’s ever been. That gives you a big boost to your net worth and can help fuel a move as a homeowner. If you’re curious how much equity you’ve built in your home, DM me today.

Rising interest rates have begun to slow an overheated housing market as monthly mortgage payments have risen dramatically since the beginning of the year. This is leaving some people who want to purchase a home priced out of the market and others wondering if now is the time to buy one. But this rise in borrowing cost shows no signs of letting up soon.

Economic uncertainty and the volatility of the financial markets are causing mortgage rates to rise. So, is now the right time to buy a home? Anyone thinking about buying a home today should ask themselves two questions:

>>1. Where Do I Think Home Prices Are Heading?

There are two places to turn to answer this question. First is the consensus of what experts are saying. If you look at what experts are projecting for home prices in 2023, they’re forecasting home price appreciation around 2%. While it’s true some are calling for depreciation, most are calling for appreciation in home values over the next...

Two Questions Every Homebuyer Should Ask Themselves Right Now Rising interest rates have begun to slow an overheated housing market as monthly mortgage payments have risen dramatically since the beginning of the year.

While the inventory of homes for sale has increased compared to last year, it remains low. If you're still not finding a home that checks all your boxes, experts recommend expanding your search radius and looking at nearby locations to increase your pool of options. For more advice during your homebuying journey, DM me today.

Mortgage rates have increased significantly in recent weeks. And that may mean you have questions about what this means for you if you’re planning to buy a home. Here’s some information that can help you make an informed decision when you set your homebuying plans.

>>The Impact of Rising Mortgage Rates

As mortgage rates rise, they impact your purchasing power by raising the cost of buying a home and limiting how much you can comfortably afford.

As rates go up, the amount you can afford to borrow decreases and that may mean you have to look at homes at a different price point. That’s why it’s important to work with a real estate advisor to understand how mortgage rates impact your monthly mortgage payment at various home loan amounts.

>>Are Mortgage Rates Going To Go Down?

The rise in mortgage rates and the resulting decrease in purchasing power may leave you wondering if you should wait for rates to go down before making your purchase. If...

If you’re trying to decide whether to rent or buy a home, consider the advantages homeownership offers. Buying a home can help you escape the cycle of rising rents, it’s a powerful wealth-building tool, and it’s typically considered a good hedge against inflation. If you’re ready to take advantage of the benefits of homeownership, DM me today.

This is an inflection point for the housing market. Over the past two years, we’ve seen a massive amount of buyer demand (showings) and not enough homes available for sale (listings). Today, supply and demand look very different. Supply is up and demand is down. If you have questions about what that shift means for you, DM me.

If you’re following today’s housing market, you know two of the top issues consumers face are inflation and mortgage rates. Let’s take a look at each one.

>>Inflation and the Housing Market

This year, inflation reached a high not seen in forty years. For the average consumer, you probably felt the pinch at the gas pump and in the grocery store. It may have even impacted your ability to save money to buy a home.

While the Federal Reserve is working hard to lower inflation, the August data shows the inflation rate was still higher than expected. This news impacted the stock market and fueled conversations about a recession. It also played a role in the Federal Reserve’s decision to raise the Federal Funds Rate last week.

While their actions don’t directly dictate what happens with mortgage rates, their decisions have contributed to the intentional cooldown in the housing market.

Experts are starting to make their 2023 home price forecasts. As they do, most agree homes will continue to gain value, just at a slower pace. Over the past couple of years, home prices have risen at an unsustainable rate, leaving many to wonder how long it would last. If you’re asking yourself: what’s ahead for the price of my home, know that experts are now answering this question, and its welcome news for homeowners who may have been led by the media to believe their home would lose value.

Historically, home prices have appreciated at a rate near 4%. For 2023, the average of six major forecasters is 2.5%. While one, Zelman & Associates, is calling for depreciation, the other five are calling for appreciation.

To understand why experts are calling for appreciation next year, look to the economics of supply and demand. Two things are driving home prices upward. First, the undersupply of homes on the market is an issue we continue to face in this...
