The low interest rates, first time homebuyer programs, low down payments despite the current mortgage market events and hundreds of reasonably priced properties on the market gives you the opportunity to make your home ownership dreams come true.
We all want the best deal, but don't hold back from buying a home hoping to purchase at the lowest. You will not know the bottom of the market until it begins rising again. What happens if the interest rates start increasing again, while you wait for it to hit bottom?
For most buyers, the monthly payment is an important gauge of affordability. Let me show you what can happen while you wait for the market to "bottom out."
Assume that for property worth $ 300,000 you get a 5% interest now. You decide to wait, the prices declines another 5% before appreciating again, and in the mean time the interest rate goes up from 5% to 6%. The property will be worth $285000 with a 6% interest rate. That will increase your monthly payment almost a $ 98.
The added advantage to first time home buyers is the $7500 tax credit. If you close on a home before July 1st 2009 you may be eligible for a credit of up to $7500 off your tax bill.
It's time to make your move towards your #1 investment. Avoid looking back saying "that was the best time to buy."
