Buying your home in 2012
If your new year's resolution is to buy your first home in 2012 or buy a second home/investment property, now is the time to do it! Interest rates are lower than they've ever been, with a 20 year fixed loan coming in right around 3.875% and a 30 year fixed around 4%. There are also great loan products for first time homebuyers along with government loan programs that are sure to help those that have been their making their payments on their current loan but owe more than the property is worth.

It's Time To Buy!
Everyone's heard news about how apparently bad the current real estate market is. U.S. house prices have plunged since 2006 and homeownership rates are falling fast, however, it isn't all bad news. Two key measures now suggest that it's one of the best times to buy - either to live in long term or as an income investment. "First the nation's ratio of house prices to yearly rents is nearly restored to its prebubble average.

Buying is Now Cheaper Than Renting!!!
I have only been working at Rogers Healy and Associates for a couple of weeks now, but after last week's finance class and this week's CNNMoney article, I have learned it is certainly a buyers market right now! With home prices taking such a beating with the recent market and the demand for rentals increasing, it has now become cheaper to buy than to rent. In addition, interest rates are at an all time low so it is also a great time to re-finance your home!

Today’s Real Estate Market
In today’s rough and turbulent times in our economy, real estate is one sector that is extremely struggling. For over the past year, you cannot turn on your T.V. without hearing something about sub-prime mortgages, foreclosures, and extreme drops in real estate prices. I know it is sometimes hard for some people to get beyond the negativity and see that this is a great time to be purchasing real estate from a personal and investment standpoint.

TO BUY OR NOT TO BUY
That is definitely the question of the year when it comes to real estate and that's what I'll be blogging about over my next few entries.
Over the last couple weeks, I've probably heard the following phrase more times than I've heard Michael Jackson songs on repeat on the radio, "It's a GREAT time to invest in real estate!!". People are hesitant to buy a home in times like these, but if you're brave enough to stray from the herd, you might be in for the home-buying opportunity of a lifetime.
