BUYER OBJECTION IN TODAY’S REAL ESTATE MARKET: “Interest rates are too high. I’m going to wait until they come down”.

You don’t live in an interest rate; you live in a house. You know the saying about the road less traveled? Do the opposite of what everyone else is doing. What are a lot of buyers doing right now? They are waiting for rates to come down to some arbitrary number in their mind that may or may not happen.

We are not going to return to the pandemic interest rates that we got spoiled with over the last few years. The flip side of that is that while rates were low, buyers had to do all kinds of crazy things in addition to going way over asking price to get a home. Do you really want to go back to giving up contingencies, waiving appraisals, accepting a home in a condition that otherwise would have been accounted for in a repair negotiation and letting sellers stay in the property past closing while paying $100,000 over list price?

In the end, things even out. Isn’t it better to make an offer in a less chaotic setting where you may have some leverage with a seller when it comes to negotiating terms that are more balanced? Additionally, interest rate buydowns are a very popular concession that can be negotiated with a seller to lessen your monthly mortgage payment.

Let’s discuss. Call Wilhelmy Realty today!!

Guide to help anyone who isn’t an expert or a psychic understand today’s housing market trends.

Rising interest rates, falling home sales, and talk of a recession in 2019: what does it mean for you? We created this guide to help anyone who isn’t an expert or a psychic understand today’s housing market trends.

The year started with sky-high home prices, historically low mortgage rates and a definitive upper hand for sellers. In recent months though, home price growth has faltered, rates have risen to their highest point in nearly eight years, and favor has started to shift from seller to buyer.

All real estate markets are local, but they're still affected by the national economy. So, first a word about that. Despite much talk about how well the U.S. economy is doing, the aspect that matters most to real estate—jobs—has been slowing down. In recent months the national rate of job growth was 1.5%, the lowest in years.

While a recession might not be right around the corner, a slowdown is becoming more likely making it more important than ever to closely monitor changes in local markets to decide how best to invest in real estate in 2019.

We utilized a range of measures that reflect qualities that appeal to residents and investors, from growth in job opportunities and property values to cost of living indexes and rent-to-income ratios. The cities that we’ve selected are those that balance projected growth for investors with affordability for residents—a necessary combination for sustainable growth.
