POV: You’ve looked at 147 Zillow listings this week and feel completely stuck. 🙃
Is “analysis paralysis” keeping you from buying your dream home?
Between shifting inventory and fluctuating interest rates, it is easy to feel frozen. But you don’t need the market to crash to find a great deal you just need a smarter strategy:
1. Recalibrate your pre approval: Lending programs update frequently; check in with your mortgage pro to make sure you aren’t leaving options on the table.
2. Shop new construction perks: Builders are aggressively buying down interest rates and covering closing costs to move homes off their books.
3. Seek out assumable mortgages: Taking over a seller’s existing FHA or VA loan could let you snag a COVID-era rate that isn’t available anywhere else.
4. Negotiate seller financing: Motivated sellers are increasingly open to custom terms and financing options that sidestep traditional bank friction.
