It’s almost Spring and, for many people, thoughts turn to buying a new home. Whether you are wanting to move up from your current house or this is a first time purchase for you, it stands to reason that you want to get the most for your hard earned money. And you want a place where you can enjoy the outdoors.
A current article in RISMedia.com discusses what is happening in real estate market right now and if you might want to dive right into this market.
Should You Dive Right In?
With the way things are forecast to go in the housing market in 2021, buyers might be feeling a little overwhelmed. Home sales are predicted to increase by 21.9% with home values expected to rise 10.5% by December 2021, according to a recent Zillow report.
However, while some buyers may think it wise to wait for the market to cool, Zillow’s data shows they may benefit more from simply diving in—of course, if they are financially prepared to do so—as the possibility of rising mortgage rates could bring affordability challenges in the future. Additionally, if the persistent inventory shortage keeps up, this will continue pushing home prices even higher.
Make The Most of Historically Low Mortgage Rates
An example, Zillow reports that today’s average mortgage rate is 2.68% for a 30-year fixed loan. With a 20% down payment, that means it would cost a typical U.S. buyer about $861 per month, plus taxes and insurance, to purchase a home. However, if home values rise 8% and interest rates climb to 3%, that same house would cost buyers $969 per month. And with a 12% spike in home values, the scenario would be monthly payments of $1,005.
