Okie Homes and Homesteads

A post Christmas market update.

With rates dropping we are seeing an uptick in home sales. There is still relatively low demand with a small increase in inventory (seasonally adjusted). With prices still fairly high and demand moderate we are in a buyer favorable market.
What does this mean?
Sellers are willing to drop prices or offer incentives for buyers in the form of closing cost offsets.
If you are a buyer this means you might not be in a competing offer scenario when you find the home you like. This means you have a stronger position in negotiations for things like repairs, upgrades, and closing costs. Especially when looking at houses like new construction.

To talk more about what the current market looks like and to plan for your future real estate moves message me to schedule a time to sit down and talk about your situation and needs.

While the decrease in rates is helping to offset higher home prices, buyers still face a challenging housing market.

(Not a political post)
Why would someone with insider trading knowledge buy into a LLC that purchases the worst real estate asset class? Considering she never misses on investments, use this as a clue that there is an impending commercial real estate crash and there are companies positioning to scoop up assets for pennies on the dollar.

Rates are starting to come down (rumors of a big fed ratr drop coming in Sept) if you are thinking about a move contact me to start setting up a plan, because there will be a lot of action once the feds start their rate drop.

The recent high on the 30-year fixed mortgage was 7.52% in late April, and home sales have been falling ever since.

When I have been asked my opinion about what rates will do I have consistently said don't count on it. Powell has been consistent in saying the goal is 2% inflation and he doesn't want cuts until there is at minimum consecutive months of declining inflation towards their goal.

Plan accordingly
Keep putting money into savings and building up your down payment.
Get a current CMA (if you own a home) to know the estimated equity after sale to put towards a new purchase.
Get a pre-approval before you start shopping so you know what price range to shop in.
Work with an agent that actually understands some basics about economics, not just TV headlines.

Message me to get your CMA

Federal Reserve chairman Jerome Powell confirmed Tuesday that policymakers will pump the brakes on cutting interest rates following the March inflation report

We are seeing an increase in houses sold this past week in the greater Tulsa area and also an increase number of properties decreasing their price.
It is a good thing to see pricing coming down for people who have been waiting to get into the housing market who are starting to get good deals on properties sitting on market and are bringing down prices.
If you have a property and want to get knowledge about what your house's value looks like in this current market I would be happy to make a complimentary CMA (Comparative Market Analysis) for the first 5 people who message me.
