Every year the media likes to tell us "The market is going to be a tough one this year, buckle up!" Which, granted, the market has been rapidly changing for the better part of 2 years but what does that mean exactly? Interest rates have kept everyone on their toes, buyers have gained more negotiating power than they have in the previous 4 years and sellers are kicking themselves for not taking advantage of the ridiculous sellers market we just emerged from.
Change is a tricky mistress, we can panic and say all is doomed or we can embrace her and learn to adapt. Terms like "seller concessions", "2 to 1 buy downs" and "marry the home, date the rate" have re-emerged to remind buyers that they still have options. Which brings me to my point of all this, YOU STILL HAVE OPTIONS! But they won't last forever. Now is the time! Renting should never feel like your only choice and truthfully the goal is to be rent free in 2023.
We are hosting a decisive workshop the first week of April appropriately named "Buying & Selling in a Complicated Market". We will break down what the market is doing, and how you can set yourself up with success for when the time is right. Not all Realtors and Lenders are the same, who you choose to work with can make or break closing the deal. Everyone tends to believe the Realtor sells the home, but the fact of the matter is financing sells homes. If proper financing isn't obtained you can expect the deal to fall dead in the water.
In this workshop we'll cover how to:
- Build credit
- Lower your interest rate
- Qualify you for a loan
- Lower your down payment
- as low as 0 or 3.5% down with low interest
- Choose the best loan programs for you
- Lower your points and fees
- And so much more!
Come learn from the top agents and special guest speaker top lender Casey Porter with Movement Mortgage. Our workshops are free to all and we like to make learning exciting and fun! Sign up at RMGtalks.net.
