The Power of Low Interest Rates
We have talked about it before.
With everything going on some buyers hoped to see a decrease in home values, deciding to wait out purchasing a home π€ β£ β£
But as discussed we have seen the opposite occur, due to low inventory of homes on the market, and high demand, homes have seen an increase in price πβ£ β£
Another reason to not wait is we still have historically low interest rates. β£ β£ So I figured it would be helpful to talk with Bethany Imhoff of Pacific Residential Mortgage to discuss just how important low interest rates are for your purchase power πͺπΌ β£ β£
Firstly, she points out the most important factor that, a lower rate means a lower monthly payment.β£ β£ And Bethany has found with the decrease in rates people are qualifying for properties they were unable to qualify for months prior. β£ β£
Lastly, itβs not always important to get the dream home right out of the gate. Often what's important is to get property, enter the market, build equity and be in a better position when you go for that second home, dream home, forever home ππ π‘β£ β£ Have questions about current and future interest rates? Bethany would be happy to chat. β£ β£ Need a question answered on the real estate side of things? I'm always available to talk at π± 971.3616114 or π©πΌβπ» lilywyss@kw.comβ£ β£
