This market offers great options to buyers who couldn’t compete before.

How is the market for buyers? You may have heard that the real estate market has softened somewhat. This has made it a great time for our buyers. I had the opportunity to sit down with Lisa Lister to discuss that subject. 

Lisa loves working with her first-time home buyers. Once we’ve established your needs and goals, it becomes much easier to get you into the right kind of mortgage product. This can include discussions on what sort of down payment you will need and so forth. This makes it so that you are very comfortable with the home-buying process.

This market is more competitive, meaning that there are options available for buyers, like 2-1 buydowns and down payments as low as 3%. Listing agents and sellers are also now willing to accept things like FHA loans and rural development loans, meaning that homebuyers without much upfront cash can still get into homes they couldn’t purchase a year ago. Finally, home inspections and home warranties are back on the table.

“Options like 2-1 buydowns and down payments as low as 3% are now available for buyers.”

So if you or someone you know is looking to buy, perhaps someone who wasn’t able to buy during the last couple of years, we are here to help. You can reach us by phone or email, and we’d be happy to get the process started.
