Interest rates have increased 0.75% since the election. That might not seem like much, but what do rising interest rates mean to you as a homebuyer?
A 1% increase in interest rates on a $300,000 house can mean an extra $200 in your monthly mortgage payment. Not only that, but in order to qualify for that home, your income would need to increase by nearly $600 a month thanks to that rate increase.
When interest rates go up, buying power goes down. You have to make more money to qualify for the same house, and your payments will be larger.

If you are on the fence about buying a home, now is the time to make your move. Interest rates will continue to rise over the next few years. They are expected to rise twice in 2017, 2018, and 2019. Now is the time to make your move if you want to beat those rate increases.
If you have any other questions about buying a home or about the real estate market in general, give me a call or send me an email. I would be happy to help you!

I read your blog, its really awesome, I love it.
I have additionally this related website.
The first thing owners should consider no matter when they're selling is why buyers might want their property.
Sellers can further sweeten the deal by offering incentives like closing bonuses for Realtors, goods or services for buyers, and help with financing if the buyer can't access a large enough mortgage.
