Here it is, the year 2-0-1-3. And it is such a fantastic time for all of us! If you have been waiting and watching the market to find the perfect home, trust me this is the best time ever to get into it.

Sellers Eager to Close After the Holiday Season
Now that the Christmas lights are down, schools are about to re-open and business is back to usual – sellers are eager more than ever before to get their homes sold. When you have an eager seller, you have much more room to negotiate. If you have been sitting back while the holidays came and went by – now is definitely the time to jump back on the bandwagon and start up your home search again.

Interest Rates Holding Strong at Below 4%
With all this talk about the Fiscal Cliff, no one really knew where we were headed in the coming months or years. But now that we know a deal has been reached and consensus found, we can focus on enjoying the super low interest rates the Fed has elected to hold still for now. These are still historic low rates that one day, we’ll likely never see again. So it’s just smart to buy now, lock in these amazing rates and enjoy more house for the same monthly payment.

Pre-Spring Season Prices Still Low
One phenomenon we tend to see as more and more buyers appear on the market is the artificial inflation of prices.  What happens is that as multiple buyers express interest in one home, multiple offers and price wars become an issue. This artificial inflation of prices will temporarily impact the marketplace, so much so that you may not be able to get as good a deal as you would if buying now. As we move into the spring season, more buyers will be out wanting to lock in these rates.
