According to many experts, the real estate market is expected to continue growing in 2021, and it’s largely driven by the lasting impact the pandemic is having on our lifestyles. Here are 4 reasons people are reconsidering where they live and why they’re expecting to buy a home this year. >>Record-Low Mortgage Interest Rates According to Freddie Mac, the average 30-year fixed interest rate today is 2.65%. Many wonder how low these rates will go and how long they’ll last. Len ...Keifer, Deputy Chief Economist for Freddie Mac, advises, If you’ve found a home that fits your needs at a price you can afford, it might be better to act now rather than wait for future rate declines that may never come and a future that likely holds very tight inventory. >>Working from Home Remote work is a new normal for many businesses, and it’s lasting longer than most expected. Many are discovering they don’t need to live close to the office anymore & they can get more for their money by moving a little further outside city limits. >>More Outdoor Space Another new priority for homeowners is having more usable outdoor space. Being at home is driving those in some areas to seek less densely populated neighborhoods so they have more room. >>Avoiding Renovations It’s recently come to light that many homeowners would also rather buy a new home than go through the process of fixing up the one they have. Depending on what needs to be addressed, today’s high buyer demand may make it possible to skip some renovations before selling. Many of these homeowners have prioritized buying over renovating for convenience & potential cost savings. It’s clear that homeownership needs are changing. As a result, Americans are expected to move in record numbers this year. If you’re trying to decide if now is the right time to buy a home, DM me today to discuss your options. #firsttimehomebuyer #opportunity #housingmarket #househunting #makememove #homegoals #houseshopping #housegoals #investmentproperty #emptynest #downsizing #locationlocationlocation #newlisting #homeforsale #renovated #starterhome #dreamhome #curbappeal
