guaranteed sale austin: December 2020 home price update
- 12/10/20 07:49 AM
Friends and Clients --
The recent surge in the real estate market has now offset the spring market losses.
This means it's a great moment for anybody thinking of selling a home. However, it's uncertain how long this will last. Let me give you the details:
1. Never-before-seen price levels
Sales of existing homes in October soared well past expectations, rising 4.3% compared with September and 26.6% annually.
More impressively, home prices jumped 7% in September year over year. That's the largest annual gain in six years. Prices are now nearly 23% higher than their last peak in 2006.
So what's behind this surge?
2. Record-low supply

guaranteed sale austin: October 2020 home price update
- 10/05/20 07:23 AM
Friends and Clients --
The housing market has continued its booming recovery, and sellers continue to benefit.
But things might be changing soon. Let me give you the details:
1. Demand still outpaces supply by a lot
This August, sales of existing homes rose 10.5% compared to the same time last year. This is the fastest sales pace since December 2006, before the Great Recession.
The only thing that's holding sales back is a lack of homes on the market.
Inventory of homes for sale is down 18.6% annually to a three-month supply. For reference, the last time that sales were this robust, the supply of homes … (1 comments)

guaranteed sale austin: Mortgage rates keep dropping, but should you go for it?
- 09/17/20 08:38 AM
Friends and Clients --
We've set a new record. In fact, we've set a bunch of them. Let me explain.
Throughout 2020, the 30-year fixed mortgage rate hit a new low eight separate times.
The most recent record happened only a few weeks ago when we reached a never-before-seen 2.88%.
Could rates continue to drop? If you are looking to buy or refinance your mortgage, should you wait to scoop up an even better deal in the months to come?
In theory, rates could indeed continue to go lower—all the way down to 0%.
That's never been seen here in the U.S. However, it's a current reality … (2 comments)

- 09/03/20 09:45 AM
Friends and Clients --
The real estate market is making up for lost time, but things might change soon.
1. A surge in sales and record prices
This spring, home sales slowed to a crawl due to the coronavirus pandemic.
However, this summer, the market has come roaring back.
Sales of existing homes surged 24.7% in July compared to June (the last months for which we have full data). That's the biggest gain in sales since the National Association of Realtors started tracking these numbers in 1968.
Home prices are also rising. The median home price reached a record high this July, both in absolute terms and … (6 comments)

guaranteed sale austin: Luxury homes are growing in demand, but what about supply?
- 08/19/20 12:36 PM
Friends and Clients --
The luxury real estate market is bouncing back at an unexpected clip.
Stay-at-home orders and social distancing have put a new value on extra space and special amenities. As restrictions ease, this pent-up demand has driven inquiries of luxury homes.
As a result, luxury homes are outpacing the rest of the market in both price growth and views.
Of course, agents have adapted home showings with a range of COVID precautions.
Visitors to properties now wear masks and use hand sanitizer. They often sign release forms, and some are even asked to wear disposable booties.
Open houses are … (12 comments)

guaranteed sale austin: How to save while refinancing with an “appraisal waiver”
- 07/24/20 03:03 PM
Friends and Clients --
I want to tell you about a quick and easy way to save hundreds of dollars when you're refinancing or taking out a mortgage.
I'm talking about a little-known option called an appraisal waiver.
In a nutshell, when a lender decides to give you a loan, they want to have a good idea of what your property is worth.
The typical way they do this is by sending out an expert to examine the property.
This appraisal typically costs between $270 and $750. As you can probably guess, it's you, the borrower, who is on the hook for … (16 comments)
