Every time I pick up the paper or turn on the evening news there is a story about the Housing market or as the news likes to put it the troubled housing market. As a realtor I think the hardest part of my job right now is dispelling myths and rumors.
The mortgage crisis, the housing meltdown, who are you to believe? I want to give a boost of confidence to anyone who want's to buy a home but has been a little gun shy because of all of the media bashing lately.
Yes, it is a buyer's market but not the kind that you think. When most people think of a buyers market they see sellers begging you to buy their home, please, please buy me. I promise I will be a good home for you, just pick me I will sell it to you for what ever you want. Well that is not the case but let me tell you why I think this is a great buyers market.
Choice- There are over 19,000 homes to choose from both brand new and resale. With this kind of selection you are sure to find that perfect home.
Interest rates- Below 6% again, with rates at their historic lows again what are you waiting for.
Price-Prices have come down. Gone are the days of multiple offers on homes, you can now take your time find a great home and make a fair offer.
and finally No Money Down is still available, yes I will say it again No Money Down is available. Through a program coordinated by a non profit agency you can get approved for a FHA backed loan with NO MONEY DOWN!
So what are you waiting for? I want to hear from you. What are your fears about the housing Market?
Are you fearless? If you are check out some houses below and prequalify for a mortgage.
