In real estate news, mortgage interest rates have climbed up again, although they tend to change from one day to the next. The Feds meet at the end of May and we will see if they feel like inflation is under control. Meanwhile, you would think the real estate market would slow down but it’s only gaining momentum! Sellers have to be aware that buyers are asking for money towards closing costs or to buy down their interest rate. Pricing your home correctly and having the right expectations is key to getting your home sold. Many sellers are equity rich and have opted to cash in on that equity and make the move now before bidding wars are in full swing. If rates drop even a little bit, I fully expect to see many buyers enter the market. If you’re curious how much equity you have in your home, please reach out for a FREE market analysis of your home!
