Fed Cuts Interest Rates - Now is the Time to Buy Real Estate!

Supported by the Federal Reserve’s recent decision to cut its overnight federal funds rate to a range of zero to 0.25 percent, the 30-year fixed rate mortgage hit a 37-year low last week reaching 5.17 percent.

Trade-up or scale-down buyers are free to move into an exciting new home or condo, making more starter homes available for first-time buyers.

The advantage goes to the buyer when there are more homes for sale. In a market where the inventory of homes is growing, the competition between buyers increases and gives buyers more options. More competition is not a problem if the local market is moving at a lively pace.

Affordable loans and a wide variety of financing options make it an excellent time to buy or sell real estate.

Spring Market Now In Full Bloom!

The spring market has began early this year!

While it's always difficult to forecast the housing market, all the main indicators suggest that the traditionally active spring market is already here and there are many buyers out there looking currently. You might want to list sooner rather than later, particularly given that if you list now you'll be able to take advantage of the many buyers looking now with low interest rates. You will also be able to beat the punch and get your home on the market before your competition does, who may be waiting until March and April.

Please don't hesitate to call or email me with any questions or concerns. If you would like to schedule a time for me to come and get your home on the market call me at 765-532-6148!

Trying to sell FSBO?

Trying to sell your home "For Sale By Owner". I respect your desire to sell your home alone. I also know it can be stressful to manage the process without professional help. If you have questions, I'd be happy to help. Call me.

And if you are thinking of an alternative plan, consider this:

· We meet to discuss a future date for me to put your home on the market.
· You continue marketing on your own, and if you sell it yourself, you owe me nothing.
· If your home doesn't sell, I'll be ready with a customized plan to sell your home quickly, for top price.

That's it. No hidden fees. No strings attached.

Call me at (765) 807-7121 or visit my website at www.RomanskiGroup.com to find out how I can make the sale of your home easy and financially rewarding.
