If you are looking to buy your primary home or investment property, You must know the numbers !! As you know from our previous posts we are real advocates for buying in this market. I do not believe that we will see home prices, rates and other factors this positive for buyers for MANY years to come and maybe not again in our life time. Having said that it's critical to really know your numbers before looking and placing an offer.
