Simply Stated, and pardon my direct demeanor.. but what are you waiting for? Take that plunge already. Fear shouldn't EVEN be a factor in this market. A 200,000 house could be less than $1000. in a mortgage payment. Can you rent a house for that low price per month?
In addition to a low payment, you'll can park anywhere you want on your property. You can use the backyard whenever you like.

Interest rates are now in the low 4's for a 30 year fixed rate.  What this means to you is a house payment that would be less than rent. Home prices are at an all time low too. Applying for a loan is easy peasy

Buyers, you are wondering where the bottom is, it could be now or 1 year from now or 4 years from now.. but hear this..

Over time, not only does buying real estate give you a place to live, it gives you some great tax advantages where you can write off your mortgage interest and some closing costs ( check with your accountant on this).

I know of a family who in 1993, bought their first single family home for $122,000 at an 8% interest rate!, sold for a $40,000 profit in 2000. In 2001 bought their second single family home..for $175,000, sold in 2004 for a whopping $140,000 profit and then bought their dream home.. where they live now... I have to say, with all of the home buying and selling they did over the last 15 years, they told me that not once did they "time" the market.

Be the one who says "I am glad I did" vs. the one who says "I wished I had!"Even if prices come down more, it really doesn't matter because you probably will not sell your new home for at least 7 years. and again, real estate historically, though not guaranteed has proven to be a profitable investment over time for those that decide to buy.. in any market.

Over the past week, we have already seen some strong activity from buyers who want to take advantage of the market,BEFORE interest rates increase.. what about you? Don't you deserve to own your own piece of the American Dream?

1. People who look for a home during the Holidays are more serious buyers! In fact, , undoubtedly sellers have a better chance to standout and face a buyer pool with more urgency to buy.

Real Estate and Market Trends in Massachusetts

All Real Estate is Local and values can vary substantially even from one town to the next town over. While the Greater Boston area ( Newton, Boston, Cambridge, Brookline) is in recovery,New Bedford, Fall River, Swansea, Somerset, Taunton and most Bristol and Plymouth County Towns are not.

Are you confused about house values in Massachusetts.? There are several different camps out there.

So here's see it:

There is one camp that says there will be double dip.

Another camp says we are in recovery.

Another camp touting a new construction shortage..

...no wonder there's so much confusion.

When you watch a news program or read a Market trends publication, it's always good to consider the source.

As you read the list below, think about the audience of each media, and who they are attempting to reach.

Also when you review the numbers- most of the national companies that  reporting data will only use the top 10-15-20-25 major cities/metro areas... and the  data does not reflect every city and town in the Country:

Zillow

Banker and Tradesman (Massachusetts)

Clear Capital

Case Shiller

National Association of @[587360818:Realtors]

CNBC

CNN

... to name a few.. I am not going to post charts and graphs here. Leave that to the "experts"

 Evaluate whether or not you believe the data is accurate or skewed and why.

 I believe that whatever and wherever we are in real estate, people are still buying real estate and selling real estate. Loan rates are very low, and unemployment rates have come down, and hyper local real estate data is THE best way to determine home values.

People who've wanted to move have been pent up for years..waiting and waiting, only to realize that they aren't getting any younger, the value of their homes isn't improving and likely has declined, but now have become determined.. they must move to achieve their dreams and goals and have better lives. Those are facts.
