Increasing Mortgage Rates are here.  Reported by Freddie Mac,” interest rates for 30-year fixed-rate mortgages have risen about one full percentage point over recent historic lows”.  

“The National Association of Realtors, the Mortgage Bankers Association, Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, in their July forecasts, have all projected 30-year-fixed mortgage interest rates to be between 4.8 and 5.1% by this time next year.”

This affects the bottom line monthly mortgage payments.  Whether you are buying or selling, this does affect you!

Ask your self why you are selling or buying. Can you wait?  Do you really want to wait?  And what happens if you wait and interest rates go higher?  Your purchase power goes down, and your selling price may need to go down because the buyer can’t afford the higher cost of buying a home.  If this is the right time and right reason to move, you can save a substantial amount of money in the long run. Call me today and I would be happy to meet with you to discuss your real estate questions and options.

The business of selling real estate has changed dramatically in the past few years, I still rely upon the true and proven standards I have used in my 14 plus years experience, like  the internet, signs and even open houses, as well as listing your home on the MLS, Multiple Listing Service.  In this changing market, I also employ Social Media, Client Networking and my Real Estate Blog in the Three Village Patch.    In addition to these tools, my business revolves around professional cooperation, and excellent communication between the client-you the seller, and the listing agent- that’s me!  I believe in combining preparation and opportunity in order to get the best results.
