If you’re thinking about buying in the spring, the buying process might take longer than you think. The process accounts not only touring homes, but finding the right property, going under contract, applying for a mortgage, and closing successfully.

Ideally, you should account for 120 days to buy a home. The first 30 to 45 days should be spent shopping around for the right house. Next, you need to allocate 45 to 60 days for the mortgage process. This includes inspection, appraisal, and due diligence with the appraiser. Additionally, expect to give 3-5 business days dedicated solely to TRID.
 


If you’re looking to move your family into a new home, start looking now! Start before the vacation season and before school is out. Additionally, there aren’t as many buyers out now compared to the peak of the springtime market. Give me a call or send me an email!

How Can You Take Advantage of the Rochester Real Estate Market?

Today I'm going to be providing you with an update on the Rochester real estate market. I want you to use this information to your advantage when you're buying or selling, and I urge you to contact me with any questions you might have regarding this information. 

It's tough to say whether we're seeing a buyer's or a seller's market because each home sale really is different, and I don't like applying blanket terms about our real estate market because it's constantly shifting depending on where you are and what you're buying or selling. I will say that if you have a newer home, you probably have more leeway with sellers right now. Inventory is also relatively low, but there is a lot of new building going on. 
Interest rates remain at historic lows, which will be motivating buyers to purchase homes this year. When affordability increases, everyone benefits. When it's easier for people to buy homes, it's also easier for people to sell them, so low interest rates are having a very positive effect on our market. However, nobody knows how long these low rates will last, so now is the time to enter the market if you've been delaying.

Please contact me in regards to any questions you might have about the Rochester real estate market. I'd be pleased to provide assistance to you!
