Home Buying in Today's Market
The Metro Atlanta real estate market remains robust. We've seen prices stabilize, sellers get more competitive, and buyers have greater negotiating power. The changing market has brought tons of advantages to buyers that they've not seen in several years.
Buying PROS
As a buyer, your negotiating power is suddenly far greater. Ask for seller-paid closing costs and a seller-paid interest rate buy-down, both of which can save you thousands.
It was a busy summer at Vernon Street in Lilburn, and now just two new homes remain! Both are filled with stylish, modern finishes in this HOA-free community, and both have incredible, covered back porches perfect for the cool fall evenings ahead. We know these closeout opportunities won't last long!
Outstanding Convenience
Vernon Street has just fifteen homes and does not have an HOA. This means you can enjoy the freedom to live the way you choose, with no restrictive covenants. Situated in Lilburn, it offers an amazingly convenient Gwinnett County location that places schools, shopping, restaurants, parks and more just outside your door. Not only does Vernon Street give easy access to every local amenity, but it’s also close to major highways,
It’s a question every real estate professional hears almost daily in 2022: Should I wait to buy a home? Clients are concerned that a slowing economy will impact real estate values. They wonder if prices will come down, and they hope for a great, once-in-a-lifetime deal just around the corner. They see rising interest rates and high home prices, and they worry about a housing “bubble” akin to the one that popped in 2008. Fortunately, there is some very good news for both buyers and sellers as 2022 rolls on.
Today’s Market is Strong
While the news media sells fears of a crash, the facts on the ground in the Metro Atlanta area do not support it. When the recession hit in 2008, there were too many homes on the market – a glut of inventory. Today,
Are you currently renting and trying to decide if homeownership is right for you? The decision to rent a home or buy one can be especially hard in today’s housing market. After all, home prices have skyrocketed over the past two years and so have rental costs. Could your money be better used in the investment of a home? Consider these five important factors as you deliberate:
Rents Continue to Rise Quickly
Most renters are notified as their lease draws to an end that rent will go up if they choose to renew. It’s common practice, especially for those with a one-year lease. Payments will continue to climb year after year. Homeowners with a traditional, 30-year fixed rate mortgage can rest assured that their housing costs will remain steady, while
2021 was the year of SOLD. So many Peggy Slappey Properties clients saw their homes sell over asking price, with minimum days on the market, many to all-cash buyers who never saw the home in person. Multiple offer situations were the norm in 2021, as buyers flooded the market, which remained at near record low inventory in the metro Atlanta area for much of the year. This seller’s market was a dream come true for those looking to sell but caused headaches for buyers… and buyer’s agents.
Now that 2022 is here, the question on everyone’s mind is: Will home prices come down this year?
There is great news predicted for housing in the coming year. According to the experts at Realtor.com, home prices are expected to keep rising, but at a much slower
