Is NOW A Good Time To Buy A House

Is NOW A Good Time To Buy A House?

Well? Is NOW A Good Time To Buy A House??? But why? Today we’re in the studio with Anouheh Moghaddam with Movement Mortgage and we’re talking about a Market Opportunity that’s happening right now in the South Bay Real Estate Market. With the mortgage interest rate hikes in 2022 slowing the market, home buyers currently have an opportunity to potentially not have to compete with multiple offers and be able to negotiate with the seller for better terms.
Mortgage Interest rates have come down from the mid 7%’s in November of 2022 to the high 5%’s! That has already started to heat up the market. There’s still time to get in now. But when rates start hitting 5% and if they drop below that, we’ll be right back to the hot sellers market and super competitive conditions for home buyers. We’ve seen an uptick in listing inventory… which is actually GOOD. But inventory is still lower than normal and we’re just not sure when we’ll see that return to normal here in the South Bay.
Currently here in the Beach Cities of the South Bay Los Angeles… Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach and Redondo Beach…we’re seeing a bit of a lull in the real estate market. Yet it’s typically quieter from Thanksgiving til around the end of January in a normal market. The last 2 years were certainly not normal. The Spring market is usually the hottest market & we’ll see how if fares with higher interest rates we’ve seen for decades. It’s an interesting market for sure.
