Aren't We Grateful Not to Pay High Interest Rates Like Our Parents?

Aren't we 🍀lucky not to pay the interest rates our parents did?? Interest rates hovered around 4% for the majority of 2017, which gave many buyers relief from 📈rising home prices and helped with affordability. In the first quarter of 2018, rates have increased from 3.95% up to 4.45% and experts predict that rates will increase even more by the end of the year.

Looking for a great lender?  We'll put you in touch with our lender partner for a free no obligation telephone consultation.  https://www.seesocalrealestate.com

The rate you secure greatly impacts your monthly mortgage payment and the amount you will ultimately pay for your home. Don’t let the prediction that rates will increase stop you from purchasing your ❤️dream home this year. 🏡. Let us put you in touch with our lender partner to secure a low-interest rate for you today! (760) 487-8399.

Be 🙏thankful that you can still get a better interest rate than your older brother or sister did ten years ago, a lower rate than your parents did twenty years ago, and a better rate than your grandparents did forty years ago!!

Why Buyer Demand Is Still Outpacing the Supply of Homes for Sale

Supply & Demand:  The price of any item is determined by the supply of that item, as well as market demand. The National Association of REALTORS (NAR) surveys “over 50,000 real estate practitioners about their expectations for home sales, prices and market conditions” for their monthly REALTORS Confidence Index.

Their latest edition sheds some light on the relationship between Seller Traffic (supply) and Buyer Traffic (demand).

Buyer Demand

The map below was created after asking the question: “How would you rate buyer traffic in your area?”

The darker the blue, the stronger the demand for homes in that area. Only four states had a ‘stable’ demand level.

Seller Supply

The index also asked: “How would you rate seller traffic in your area?”

As you can see from the map below, 25 states reported ‘weak’ seller traffic, 21 states reported ‘stable’ seller traffic, 3 states and Washington D.C. reported ‘strong’ seller traffic, and only 1 state reported ‘very strong’ seller traffic. This means there are far fewer homes on the market than what is needed to satisfy the buyers who are out looking for their dream homes.

Bottom Line

Looking at the maps above, it is not hard to see why prices are appreciating in many areas of the country. Until the supply of homes for sale starts to meet buyer demand, prices will continue to increase. If you are debating listing your home for sale, let’s get together to help you capitalize on the demand in the market now!  Call us at (760) 487-8399 or visit our Website at www.SeeSoCalRealEstate.com.
