Creating Affordability in Real Estate

"What's Your Interest Rate?"

With everyone hyper-focused on interest rates, I'd like to take a moment to address rate buydowns and how they can benefit many of the buyers on the market today.

Here's what we know about the housing market:

  • As rates fall, more buyers will enter the market, meaning competition will increase
  • When there's more competition, buyers are forced to place higher offers, resulting in over-paying for a home
  • If we're able to get buyers in the market now when there's less competition, they will be in a better financial situation and have more opportunity in the future than if they're waiting for rates to fall

This strategy of a rate buydown has helped many buyers get a lower rate and the win-win that they're looking for with a lower home price and a lower rate. In this video, I talk about a temporary buydown, which is the most common that we're seeing in today's market, and how it can help today's buyers create affordability.

Reach out with any questions or if you want to see what a temporary rate buydown looks like for you!
