I can help you understand how to best price your home to sell, what offer to put on a new home if buying, and the statistics and facts surrounding the MA market in which you are interested.

 

There are several variables happening that affect residential real estate nationally: A presidential election right around the corner, home affordability nationally is improving for various reasons, and mortgage rates are fluctuating. Timing the market and trying to find the perfect environment to buy or sell is not advantageous. 

 

The three main factors affecting affordability and why it's improving: nationally wages are increasing, mortgage rates are trending down, home prices are increasing in value just at a slower rate. Home ownership still remains one of the best ways in which to build equity and wealth in the U.S.

The most popular reasons behind why to buy or sell or just needing to move are: new job, downsizing, divorce, finding that dream home and finally affording it, you are expanding your family with children or maybe need to include an elder loved one in your home,  marriage, but the list is endless. Life happens. You can't control that, and your next home move and the market can't be timed as a result of these life changes.

 

Call me to discuss the facts and statistics surrounding your home valuation and understand your purchasing power if buying.
