How many times have we said this to buyers? Not just in this market, either. They need to feel confident that the price that they may be paying today, will be satisfactory for? Here is my take on it. If you are comfortable with the payment, the appraisal/condition report on the property and with the terms of your loan, why would you want to wait? So many times I have seen that the one house that my buyers really fell in love with, was gone, by the time that they decided to take the leap of homeownership.
Get ready! As a Stager friend of mine told one of my clients, be packing. Don't just play that you are buying a new home, start packing your things. Things that you don't use everyday. Summer clothes. Summer items that you have for your home and garden. Kitchen items that you won't be using. Pots and pans, bowls, china, etc. It will make your cabinets look more spacious, too! Why wait, be ready to go! It just made so much sense when she said it, that the bunch of us, started to laugh. Of course, it makes sense. PACK!
If you are looking for that good bargain, be ready to act when you do find it.
If you are watching and waiting for a certain property to have a price reduction, just write an offer on it. Why wait and have competition from other buyers? Make your offer known to the sellers now. They might just consider it, who knows?
Do you have to sell before you can buy your next home? Get it on the market! The new year is just around the corner. Relocation families will be coming and soon! They start looking in the beginning of the year. Make your home available to them and become one of their choices.
Waiting to see, what if, is just silly. The sky is not falling! The rates are great! The local banks and credit unions are happy to write and hold your new mortgage. Call them, stop in and ask them!
Buy it Now, If you Wait, The Good Buy May Be Gone!
