There are three things you should look at first. Are you are thinking about buying a new home, have a good credit score, and plan on living in that home for a couple of years? If you fall under these three categories you should go out and purchase a new home today.
Builders are offering exclusive deals on the purchase of a new home. The incentives that builders are offering are incredible. Some builders are knocking tens of thousands of dollars of the purchase a new home. In Arizona you can find homes for as low as $99,000. Are you kidding me! Builders are bending over backwards to sell a home. The inventory of move in ready homes is high. This is obviously a good thing for home buyers. Get your free pool, upgrades, or take off thousands of dollars off the price. Some of these incentives are exclusively to people with good credit.
If you have good credit you can take advantage of most if not all of these great specials. Builders and lenders will give you prime savings on your home/loan. This is the case with all big purchases, but especially applies to your purchase of a new home. I know of one builder who will shave up to $100,000 off the price just to get rid of the home. Everyone is scared to make such a big buy when the market is the way it is. But if you plan on staying in your new home for a few years, you will be able to take to collect on these savings.
Yes, the Real Estate market is down all over the nation. As you know the economy is strong in America and will bounce back. There is a lot of hype that it will stay this way for a few years. Though not impossible I believe this to be highly unlikely. The powers that be will not let the economy fall any lower and I think that we are getting close to stabilizing. If you are buying solely for a home for you and your family then now is the time. You can get into a home for cheap and watch the value of your home increase drastically over the years. Most think that if they buy a new house now it will only decrease in value. This is why most are not buying right now.
The market will not get any worse. Actually, I believe that the market will begin to stabilize in the next few months. With the FED reducing the interest rates and rumors that it will lower them again. We will start to see prices plateau and then start to increase. Do you fall in to these three categorizes then you should go out a purchase your new home today.
