5 REASONS TO BUY A HOME NOW INSTEAD OF SPRING
 

  1. Supply is Shrinking
    Finding the home of your dreams may become more difficult moving forward.  The best homes in the best locations sell first.
  2. Price Increases Are on the Horizon
    Prices are projected to appreciate by over 25% from now to 2018.  You'll end up paying more both in price and interest the longer you wait.
  3. Owning a Home Helps Create Family Wealth
    Either you're paying your mortgage or your landlord's.  The net worth of the average homeowner is 30 times greater than that of a renter.
  4. Interest Rates Are Projected to Rise
    The MBA, NAR, Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae all projected that the 30-year mortgage insterest rate will be over 5% by the end of 2014.
  5. Buy Low, Sell High
    Real estate is selling 'low' compared to where it will be next year.  It's time to buy.
