Let's talk a few reasons why you shouldn't let the current interest rates intimidate you as a Buyer in this market:

1. Your loan will be based on your credit rating and overall financial standing as determined by your lender. A great lender will provide an array of options suited to your personal financial goals, so it's important to work with a great banker or lender.

2. High rates allow for lower prices and room for negotiation as a Buyer. Your Realtor (hopefully me), can help you navigate the market to your benefit.

3. Loan programs: there are various loan types and options that assist buyers with lower monthly payments, down payments, escrow costs credits, etc. A current program on offer is the 3-2-1 Buydown. Here's how it works-if you are approved at a rate of 7% on your loan, with the Buydown your monthly payment during the 1st year is based on a 4% rate, 2nd year at 5%, and 3rd year at 6%, while years 4-30 are at the approved 7%-flyer attached. Check with your lender for programs that work for you!

Don't be deterred! Allow me to assist in your home purchase goals.
