Great Home or Great Timing?
You Can’t Time the Bottom. You Can Pick a Great House
Thats a subtitle of a recent article in Money Magazine (June 2008). For quite some time I have been yelling from the virtual rooftops that now is THE time to buy a home in Charlotte NC! Yet there are several people out there that still want to wait for the “bottom to hit” so that they can get the “best deal” they can get.
Along comes this article from Money and guess what… they are saying the exact same thing!
The article says that you can not accurately predict when the “bottom” will hit and prices will be at the lowest possible point. As a matter of fact, this article says to resist the urge even as it is possible that the home you buy today could actually be worth a little less next year. This part doesn’t necessarily apply in Charlotte as we still remain the only major market in the US to increase in values!
The real estate market offers the best choice in homes we have seen in decades and with mortgage rates still low, now is the time to make your move. Do your research, work with a Realtor and make your offers accordingly. But don’t sit around and wait. If you are thinking of buying a home in Charlotte, now is the time. Make your move and you could be enjoying the summer in your new Charlotte home!
