—–Real Estate Market Insight
The real estate market has recently cooled off following the drop in rates below 6% in January. Due to global events, including the ongoing war in the Middle East and inflation worries, rates have climbed over the past couple of weeks. While rates remain historically low, buyers are hesitant about future conditions.
If you are considering selling, relying solely on recent comparable sales may not accurately reflect the current whiplash market. A seasoned agent can help you understand these rapidly changing conditions and set realistic expectations.
