What does it take to buy a home in today’s market?

March 29, 2015 by Eric Lowry

What does it take to buy a home in today’s market?

Buying A Home In Today's Real Estate Market
Buying A Home In Today’s Real Estate Market

Finances – The first thing you must do to buy a home in today’s real estate market is get pre-approved by a mortgage lender.  This one is crucial.   You need to know the numbers before you start to shop for  a home.  You need to know what the monthly payment will be, what your interest rate will be and how much the closing costs will be.  You will also need to be pre-approved for financing a home before you make an offer. In today’s real estate market there won’t be time for that after you have found your dream home.

Purposefulness – In today’s real estate market home buyers must be very purposeful about their home search.  It is really important to have a list of features that are must haves for you.  We highly recommend having a Home Buying Consultation with your agent before you ever start looking at homes.  Home buyers must approach their home search with a focus on finding a home and being willing to act quickly on it.  Suffice it to say, having a need to think about making an offer for a few days is a recipe for failure in most cases in today’s real estate market.

Market Knowledge – Having a clear understanding of real estate market conditions is really important.  Home buyers that start their home search with a mindset of finding a great deal and paying 20% less than list price on a home are living in the past.  That market has been gone for a while now.  In today’s real estate market, homes are selling for 97% – 98% of list price on average, with many new listings selling at or above list price.  And the new listings are in many cases selling in just a matter of days.  You will need to be decisive and pre-approved.

Real Estate Expertise – Working with an agent that understands today’s market and knows the area and neighborhoods you are looking in is really important.  Today’s real estate market is no place to be working with an agent that does real estate part-time or isn’t serious about it.  You need to be represented by a real estate agent that is active showing homes and getting offers accepted for their clients.

Ready to buy a home?  Schedule a home buying consultation to find out more about today’s real estate market in the areas and price range that you are interested in.

The Lowry Team Keller Williams :: The Advantages Of Buying A Home

October 29, 2014 by Eric Lowry Leave a Comment

 “The Advantages Of Buying A Home”

Advantages of Buying a HomeThe Joint Center for Housing Studies of Harvard University reported “5 Financial Reasons To Buy A Home.”

1.  Housing is the one leveraged investment available. According to the Harvard report, “Home ownership allows households to amplify any appreciation on the value of their homes by a leverage factor.”

2.  You are paying for housing whether you own or rent. The report states, “Home owners pay debt service to pay down their own principal while the households that rent pay down the principal of a landlord.”

3.  Owning is usually a form of “forced savings.” Harvard research has found, “Having to make a house payment one way or the other, owning a home can overcome people’s tendency to defer savings.”

4.  There are substantial tax benefits to owning. This is because “home owners are able to deduct mortgage interest and property taxes from their income.”

5.  Owning is a hedge against inflation. Research done by the Joint Center for Housing Studies at Harvard University indicates that, “Housing costs and rents have tended over most time periods to go up at or higher than the rate of inflation, making owning an attractive proposition.”

There are many advantages of buying a home, financial or otherwise.  If you are considering buying your first home you can start your home search here:
