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 and they can get more for their money by moving a little further outside of the city limits. For some people, working remotely in their current home is challenging, especially when there may be other options available. >>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 to stretch their legs. >>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 and 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.

According to the latest CoreLogic Home Price Insights Report, nationwide home values increased by 8.2% over the last twelve months. The dramatic rise was brought about as the inventory of homes for sale reached historic lows at the same time buyer demand was buoyed by record-low mortgage rates. Where will home values go in 2021? Home price appreciation in 2021 will continue to be determined by this imbalance of supply and demand. If supply remains low and demand is high, pric...es will continue to increase. Housing Supply According to the National Association of Realtors (NAR), the current number of single-family homes for sale is 1,080,000. At the same time last year, that number stood at 1,450,000. We are entering 2021 with approximately 270,000 fewer homes for sale than there were one year ago. However, there is some speculation that the inventory crush will ease somewhat as we move through the new year for two reasons: >>As the health crisis eases, more homeowners will be comfortable putting their houses on the market. >>Some households impacted financially by the pandemic will be forced to sell. Housing Demand Low mortgage rates have driven buyer demand over the last twelve months. According to Freddie Mac, rates stood at 3.72% at the beginning of 2020. Today, we’re starting 2021 with rates one full percentage point lower than that. Low rates create a great opportunity for homebuyers, which is one reason why demand is expected to remain high throughout the new year. Taking into consideration these projections on housing supply and demand, real estate analysts forecast homes will continue to appreciate in 2021, but that appreciation may be at a steadier pace than last year. There’s still a very limited number of homes for sale for the great number of purchasers looking to buy them. As a result, the concept of supply and demand mandates that home values in the country will continue to appreciate. #realestate #homeownership #homebuying #realestategoals #realestatetips #realestatelife #realestatenews #realestateagent #realestateexpert #realestateagency #realestateadvice #realestateblog #youhaveafriendinthebusiness #howcanihelpyou

If one of the questions you’re asking yourself is, Should I sell my house this year? consumer sentiment about selling today should boost your confidence in the right direction. According to the latest Home Purchase Sentiment Index from Fannie Mae, 57% of consumer respondents to their survey indicate now is a good time to buy a home, while 59% feel it’s a good time to sell one. Many still believe that, despite everything going on in the world, it is still a good time to sell... a house. Why is now a good time to sell? There simply are not enough homes available to meet today’s buyer demand, and they’re selling just as quickly as they’re coming to the market. According to the National Association of Realtors (NAR), unsold inventory available today sits at a 2.3-month supply at the current sales pace, which is down from a 2.5-month supply from the previous month. This record-low inventory is not even half of what we need for a normal or neutral housing market, which should have a 6.0-month supply of unsold inventory to balance out. With so few homes available for buyers to choose from, we’re in a true sellers’ market. Homeowners ready to make a move right now have the opportunity to negotiate the best possible contracts with buyers who are feeling the pull of intense competition when it comes to finding their dream home. Lawrence Yun, Chief Economist for NAR, notes how quickly homes are selling right now, further confirming the benefits to sellers this season. "The market is incredibly swift this winter with the listed homes going under contract on average at less than a month due to a backlog of buyers wanting to take advantage of record-low mortgage rates." If you’re ready to make a move, you can feel good about the current sentiment in the market and the advantageous conditions for today’s sellers. DM me today to determine the best next step when it comes to selling your house this year. #Sellyourhouse #moveuphome #dreamhome #joemooresellshomes #homeownership #howcanihelpyou #realestatenews #realestateagent #realestateexpert #realestateagency #realestateadvice #realestateblog #realestatemarket #youhaveafriendinthebusiness #realestateexperts #instarealestate

Homeownership has always been the first rung on the ladder leading to household wealth. As Freddie Mac recently posted, Homeownership has cemented its role as part of the American Dream, providing families with a place that is their own and an avenue for building wealth over time. This ‘wealth’ is built, in large part, through the creation of equityBuilding equity through your monthly principal payments and appreciation is a critical part of homeownership that can help you ...create financial stability. Home equity is the difference between the current market value of your house and the amount you currently owe on your mortgage. To estimate your equity, subtract your mortgage balance from the market value of your home. You can find what you owe on your mortgage by looking at your last monthly statement or by contacting your lender. If you need help determining the current market value of your home, contact a local real estate professional. Is homeownership truly a better path to wealth than renting? Some argue that renting eliminates the cost of property taxes and home repairs. Every potential renter must realize that all the expenses the landlord incurs (property taxes, repairs, insurance, etc.) are already baked into the rent payment along with a profit margin. You don’t save money by renting. When can you cash in on your housing wealth? Your home equity is part of your total wealth as a homeowner. The two most common ways homeowners can leverage their wealth are selling and refinancing. How can these options help homeowners? During these difficult times, many households are struggling with their housing expenses. Homeowners, because of their equity, have better alternatives. What might the future bring? Most experts are calling for home prices to continue appreciating going forward. #realestate #homeownership #equity #realestategoals #realestatetips #realestatenews #realestateagent #realestateexpert #realestateagency #realestateadvice #realestateblog #realestatemarket ##realestateexperts #howcanihelpyou #realestateagents #instarealestate #instarealtor #youhaveafriendinthebusiness #realestatetipsoftheday #realestatetipsandadvice #keepingcurrentmatters

There is no I in TEAM

The housing market recovery coming into the new year has been nothing short of remarkable. Many experts agree the turnaround from the nation’s economic pause is playing out extremely well for real estate, and the current market conditions are truly making this winter an ideal time to make a move. Here’s a dive into some of the biggest wins for homebuyers this season. 1. Mortgage Rates Are Historically Low In 2020, mortgage rates hit all-time lows 16 times. Continued low rates... have set buyers up for significant long-term gains. In fact, realtor.com notes, Given this means homes could cost potentially tens of thousands less over the lifetime of the loan. This is a huge opportunity to capitalize on right now before mortgage rates start to rise. 2. Equity Is Growing According to John Burns Consulting, 58.7% of homes in the U.S. have at least 60% equity, and 42.1% of all homes in this country are mortgage-free, meaning they’re owned free and clear. In addition, CoreLogic notes the average equity homeowners gained since last year is $17,000. That’s a tremendous amount of forced savings for homeowners, and an opportunity to use this increasing equity to make a move into a home that fits your changing needs this season. 3. Home Prices Are Appreciating According to leading experts, home prices are forecasted to continue appreciating. Today, many experts are projecting more moderate home price growth than last year, but still moving in an upward direction through 2021. 4. There Are Not Enough Homes for Sale With today’s low inventory of homes on the market, which is contributing to this home price appreciation, sellers are in the driver’s seat. The competition is high among buyers, so homes are selling quickly. If you’re considering making a move, this may be your moment, especially with today’s low mortgage rates and limited inventory. DM me today to get set up for homebuying success in the new year. #realestate #homeownership #homebuying #realestategoals #realestatetips #realestatelife #realestatenews #realestateagent #realestateexpert #realestateagency #realestateadvice #realestatemarket #realestateexperts #howcanihelpyou #youhaveafriendinthebusiness

Expect A Strong Housing Market in 2021

It’s exciting to put a house on the market and to think about making new memories in new spaces. However, despite the anticipation of what’s to come, we can still have deep sentimental attachments to the home we’re leaving behind. Growing emotions can help or hinder a sale depending on how we manage them. When it comes to the bottom line, homeowners need to know what it takes to avoid costly mistakes when it’s time to move. Being mindful and prepared for the process can help ...you stay on the right track when selling your house this year. >>Price Your Home Right When inventory is low, like it is in the current market, it’s common to think buyers will pay whatever we ask when setting a listing price. Believe it or not, that’s not always true. A real estate professional will help you set the true value of your home. >>Keep Your Emotions in Check Today, homeowners are living in their houses for a longer period of time. Since 1985, the average tenure, or time a homeowner has owned their home, has increased from 5 to 10 years. When you stay in one place for so long, you may get even more emotionally attached to your space. For some homeowners, that makes it even harder to negotiate and separate the emotional value of the house from fair market price. That’s why you need a real estate professional to help you with the negotiations along the way. >>Stage Your Home Properly Buyers want to envision themselves in the space so it truly feels like it could be their own. They need to see themselves inside with their furniture and keepsakes not your pictures and decorations. A real estate professional can help you with tips to get your home ready to stage and sell. Today’s sellers’ market might be your best chance to make a move. If you’re considering selling your house, DM me to help you navigate through the process while prioritizing these must-do’s. #howcanihelpyou #youhaveafriendinthebusiness #joemooresellshomes

The housing market was a shining star in 2020, fueling the economic turnaround throughout the country. As we look forward to 2021, can we expect real estate to continue showing such promise? Here’s what four experts have to say about the year ahead. Lawrence Yun, Chief Economist, National Association of Realtors (NAR): In 2021, I think rates will be similar or modestly higher, maybe 3%...So, mortgage rates will continue to be historically favorable. Danielle Hale, Chief Eco...nomist, realtor.com: We expect sales to grow 7 percent and prices to rise another 5.7 percent on top of 2020’s already high levels. Robert Dietz, Senior Vice President and Chief Economist, National Association of Home Builders (NAHB): With home builder confidence near record highs, we expect continued gains for single-family construction, albeit at a lower growth rate than in 2019. Some slowing of new home sales growth will occur due to the fact that a growing share of sales has come from homes that have not started construction. Nonetheless, buyer traffic will remain strong given favorable demographics, a shifting geography of housing demand to lower-density markets and historically low interest rates. Mark Fleming, Chief Economist, First American: Mortgage rates are expected to remain low for the foreseeable future and millennials will continue forming households, keeping demand robust, even if income growth moderates. Despite the best intentions of home builders to provide more housing supply, the big short in housing supply will continue into 2021 and likely keep house price appreciation flying high. Whether you’re ready to buy or sell a home in 2021, if you’re planning to take advantage of the market this winter, DM me to learn about the opportunities available in your local market.

Wishing you all the best and looking forward to working with you on your real estate goals in 2021. #HNY #HappyNewYear #2021 #realestateresolutions #realestate #realestatepro #howcanihelpyou #joemooresellshomes #youhaveafriendinthebusiness

Happy R.E.D. Friday

There are many benefits to working with a real estate professional when selling your house. If you’re considering selling on your own, known in the industry as a For Sale By Owner (FSBO), it’s critical to consider the following items. 1. Your Safety Is a Priority Your safety should always come first, and that’s more crucial than ever given the current health situation in our country.... 2. A Powerful Online Strategy Is a Must to Attract a Buyer Recent studies from NAR have shown that, even before COVID-19, the first step 43% of all buyers took when looking for a home was to search online. 3. There Are Too Many Negotiations As part of their training, agents are taught how to negotiate every aspect of the real estate transaction and how to mediate the emotions felt by buyers looking to make what is probably the largest purchase of their lives. 4. You Won’t Know if Your Purchaser Is Qualified for a Mortgage Having a buyer who wants to purchase your house is the first step. Making sure they can afford to buy it is just as important. 5. FSBOing Is Becoming More Difficult from a Legal Standpoint The documentation involved in the selling process is growing dramatically as more and more disclosures and regulations become mandatory. 6. You Net More Money When Using an Agent Many homeowners think they’ll save the real estate commission by selling on their own. Realize that the main reason buyers look at FSBOs is because they also believe they can save the real estate agent’s commission. The seller and buyer can’t both save on the commission. Listing on your own leaves you to manage the entire transaction by yourself. Why do that when you can hire an agent and still net the same amount of money? Before you decide to take on the challenge of selling your house alone, DM me to discuss your options.
