The Right Time For You To Buy

Does this mean that now is the right time for you to buy a home in Bend or refinance your current mortgage?

The answer is yes because, mortgage interest rates are low this year while inventory remains steady and that means there are more opportunities for you to find the home of your dreams in Bend or elsewhere across the country.

Super Low And Looking Good

Mortgage interest rates are still super low from where they should be historically and that’s good news since we haven’t had any news that could affect the mortgage market like last year when the Federal Reserve announced that they would be tapering their bond purchases.

How To Get Started With Buying A Home

If you’re planning on purchasing a home in Bed Oregon or anywhere else nationwide the first thing you need to do is visit a mortgage lender to find out how much of a mortgage that you can get pre-qualified for then once you’ve been pre-qualified the next step is to define what type of home you are looking for.

Do you want new construction, a fixer upper or a home that was recently remodeled and has all of the character that you’re looking for?

Are you searching for a home that has a minimum of 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms?

Is the right school district important to you when choosing a home?

These are some of the questions that you must ask when searching for a home.
