Ready, Set, Buy!

The Presidential election is over, holidays are over, fiscal cliff adverted, interest rates are at historic lows (today 3.375 for Conventional 30 year fixed, 2.875 for FHA 30 year fixed. Rates provided by Denny Donnelly, New Castle Home Loans, 515-421-9290). So what are you waiting for??? Now is the time to buy a home!

Data compiled from the Des Moines Area Association of Realtors MLS indicates our pricing trend for home values is currently at about what it was in 2007. As our housing market recovers prices will go up, inventory levels will continue to decrease, and the buyer’s market we have seen for several years will become a seller’s market. The Metro’s  inventory is down 13.3% from last year. Pending sales 2012 compared to pending sales 2011 was up 21%. So our market is definitely in recovery mode.

I predict 2013 will be a very active real estate market for the Des Moines area. As a buyer would you rather purchase a home in a buyer or seller’s market ~ you decide.

 

I'd love to show you your dream home. Call or text me at 515-556-0515.

Existing Home Sales Jump in January

Found this article interesting for the country as a whole and especially good news for the midwest.

Home for sale in Bondurant

More homes went under contract in January compared to December and a year ago, according to an index released today from the National Association of REALTORS® that tracks pending sales of existing U.S. homes.

NAR's Pending Home Sales Index, which is based on purchase contracts signed but not yet closed, rose 8 percent from January 2011 and 2 percent from a downwardly revised 95.1 percent in December, to 97. According to revised figures, that's the highest index score since April 2010, just before the deadline for a federal homebuyer tax credit program, when the index was at 111.3.

The article went on to say

The index rose year over year in all four U.S. regions with the Midwest seeing the highest increase. That region saw a 10.8 percent jump, to 88.1, though the index fell 3.8 percent compared to December.
