Affordability climbs as interest rates fall
Now is the time to buy!
Last week, the benchmark 30-year mortgage rate fell below 5 percent to reach an all-time low of 4.96 percent.
This rate is down from two weeks ago when it hit 5.01 percent. “The outlook is very positive that these low mortgage rates will persist at least through the first half of the year. That is the timetable laid out from the Federal Reserve for pumping up to $500 billion in mortgage-backed bonds," said Greg McBride, senior financial analyst for Bankrate.com.
Low interest rates mean more affordable mortgage payments. Act now and get into your dream home today!

Pricing Your House To Sell
Pricing a house is one of the most important parts of the marketing process. You want to get as much for the property as you can, but if you set the price too high, you can turn away qualified buyers. Your real estate agent can tell you the selling price of homes comparable to yours. Pricing strategy depends on market conditions, and it is different in a buyers' market than it is in a sellers' market.
If your home is overpriced, the marketplace will reflect that to you. When a property fails to sell in a reasonable period of time, you and your real estate agent should have a frank discussion to determine whether too high a price tag is the reason. Your real estate agent will also be getting feedback from other agents who have shown your home.
Remember that price is only one factor. Consider ways you can make the property more attractive to show by handling needed repairs, improving curb appeal or making cosmetic improvements. Improve the condition of your home and you will improve its chances of selling.

Finding the Right Mortgage
Finding a Mortgage Lender and Your Options
When you are buying a new home or refinancing your present one, it is wise to do some comparison shopping among lenders. A low interest rate isn't the only criterion by which to evaluate a loan. You should also consider the terms of the mortgage, what your closing costs will be and the reputation of the lender.
Real estate agents are a good source of information about loans and lenders, whether you are buying a home or just refinancing your present home. We routinely assist buyers when they need a mortgage in order to purchase a home. We know what loan packages are available and the qualifying requirements. The companies with the lowest rates sometimes have very conservative underwriting guidelines, and may not be willing to make loans on certain types of property or to buyers who are marginally qualified. We can tell you which companies and loan officers will go the extra mile to provide excellent service to make sure that the transaction closes.
