It REALLY is a great time to buy real estate!

It’s a Great Time to BUY!!!

You are in the midst of a buyers’ market; there has not been a better time to buy for many years!!!

Mortgage rates are at an all time low well under 6%. We have had rates quoted as low as 3.75%, and FHA loans are set to increase in it lending volume. FHA home loans are a practical alternative for many first time buyers. The Federal Housing Administration (FHA) insures the loan, so your lender can offer you a better deal, offering low down payments, low closing costs and easier credit qualifying.

Also, the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 was updated in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. For 2009 purchasers the tax credit is now $8000 and does not need to be repaid. The credit is available through December 1, 2009 giving qualified buyers only a short window of opportunity to take advantage of this special program. Also, the Emergency Economic Stability Act enacted on October 3, 2008 will help to improve credit markets and allow housing to lead the economic recovery.

Owning a home is a terrific investment in your future, Sellers are motivated and there is a large inventory of homes available. The inventory of available homes for sale is at a 15 year high. The choice for buyers is nearly unlimited. Sellers are willing to be pliable in the negations for the sales of there properties. This is a TRUE Buyers Market!

Taking Care of You!

Before beginning your home-buying search, talk to a professional about the benefits of Buyer representation. A Realtor acting as your buyers’ agent will promote your interests and guide you through what can be a very multifaceted and sometimes confusing transaction. Speak to several agents and make sure that the one you choose is someone you can work will with. The process of buying a home is very stressful you want someone that will reduce, not add to the stress.
