HOME BUYERS---IS THIS THE TIME TO BUY?

By
Real Estate Agent with Coldwell Banker Advantage 224048


I'm sure that a lot of you potential new home owners are asking yourselves if this is the best time to get off the fence and finally make a decision to buy that home.

So is now the best time to buy a home?

Well, it depends.

  • There are certainly quite a few great reasons to buy right now.  I was in the office today talking with another agent. She has been in the business for fifteen years and she said that she has never seen a better time to buy.
  • The interest rates are just about the lowest they have ever been.
  • Home prices have decreased in price in the last couple of years.
  • Depending on the price range, there is a large inventory of homes to choose from.
  • $8000 first time home buyers' tax credit has been extended to include homes that go under contract by April 30, 2010 and close by June 30,02010.
  • $6500 home buyer's tax credit for how buyers who have lived in the present home for the last five years.

Linda,

One of the very best reasons has to do with interest rates.  They're headed up, and the 10 year bond (an indicator of mortgage rate direction) is higher today than at any time in the last five months.  Grab good rates while you can, buyers!

Hi Linda.  Yes, yes, yes, it's indeed a great time to buy.  One of the big hurdles these days is the ability to qualify for a loan, especially we self-employed agents.
