Now is a good time to buy. Here’s why:

Now is a good time to buy.  Here’s why:

The Market is Strong

Interest rates are historically low, inventory is abundant and prices are stable. 

“All Real Estate is Local”

Market conditions being reported nationally do not necessarily reflect the real estate market in your local community, neighborhood or street.   Speak to a Boston based Prudential REALTOR® who truly knows our local market.

Building Wealth 

Owning a home not only provides you with shelter, but it is one of the best ways to build wealth.  In addition to the tax benefits, real estate has delivered the most consistent positive return over any long-term investment during the last 40 years.

Timing  

The right time to buy (or sell) is when it is right for you.  Trying to time the market is extremely difficult as the only way to know the market has hit bottom is when prices are on their way back up.

Qualified Buyers 

Underwriting requirements for loans have been tightened; as a result, buyers who are now in the market are more qualified.  This means sellers can feel more confident that their sale is going to close.
