YOUR MARKET UPDATE
The National Association of Realtors predict that 2023 will be the year where long-lost normalcy will return to the housing market, with mortgage rates stabilizing and and home prices moderating. Mortgage rates have decreased to a 4 month low. An interesting strategy we are seeing in the market these days is a "mortgage buy-down,” where the buyer or seller pays points to lower the buyer’s interest rate. This can benefit the buyer with lower payments and can also benefit the seller by increasing the buyer’s buying power.

Sellers: Inventory is at an all time low and will gradually increase into the spring and summer. If you are thinking of selling in 2023, now is a great time to get your home on the market so it can stand out.

Buyers: This is a favorable market for buyers, and we are seeing a lot more flexibility and cooperation when dealing with sellers. Let us help you negotiate a great deal!

5 STAR REVIEW
“The team worked together to make sure everything went smoothly.”
Marcus and his team are great! My wife and I are first time home buyers. Home buying is a very stressful and confusing process, but Marcus was with us every step of the way and made sure we took the right choices. We are very happy with the home we got!
Ashley helped us view the home we ended up getting. She is very kind and energetic. She fits in perfectly with the team. Throughout the escrow process the team worked together to make sure everything went smoothly.
