Rates are up, prices are down, time to get off the fence

- Content provided by Jenuane Communitie­s

Many prospectiv­e homebuyers have found themselves on the fence about buying a new home, and with the state of the market over the last two years, who can blame them? However, rates are rising, prices are dropping and it’s time to get off the fence. The rise from the historical­ly low mortgage rates of 2022 to an average of 7.32% for a 30-year loan may feel like a deterrent to some new-home shoppers. However, it’s important to remember that an increase in interest rates typically

means a decrease in prices, and experts urge potential buyers to strike while the iron is hot. Though the market is cooling a bit due to this recent rise in rates, experts warn that it won’t last long. This is thanks to a combinatio­n of inventory shortages and the Fed’s promise that interest rates will be back down later this year. As inflation begins to regulate, interest rates will follow suit bringing back sky-high prices and a frenzy of new buyers. Which is why this hometown builder is on a mission

to help homebuyers get off the fence and realize their dreams of homeowners­hip. Cash in on low prices now and refi later when rates go down!
