The best deal you get on a home this year may be RIGHT NOW!

Some reports of interest creeping higher as seeping in.  There are fewer homes on the market and that means higher prices.  Sales will be brisk in the spring and multiple offers will be common.

The foreclosure rates are much lower so occupied homes are now more of the norm.

If your plan is to buy this year...Think about doing it now.  You may save a bundle over waiting till spring.

If you are looking to sell...We have plenty of buyers looking right now.  Yes, you may get a bit more in the spring, but you will pay more for that home you want to buy also.

Don't over look the option of building. Prices are going up making building a feasible thing again.

I agree Bill. Right NOW is a great time to buy a home! Our local Economic Summit is a week and a half away and will be worth attending to gain information on our industry and local economy.

Good advice William...and because of lower inventory it might take a little longer to find the home you want.  Better get started now!

Bill, I get the feeling spring may be real busy and if so, the prices and interest rates are going to be going UP!

A client if mine just told me that the interest quoted in December was lower than it is today.

The tide is turning.

I see buyers getting a better deal right now than they will in the spring and summer.
