According to NAR, across the country, inventory of available homes for sale is at an all-time low the lowest point recorded since NAR began tracking this metric in 1982. There are, however, more homes expected to hit the market later this year. Let’s break down the three key places they’ll likely come from as 2021 continues on. Homeowners Who Didn’t Sell Last Year Now that vaccines are being distributed and there’s a light at the end of the COVID-19 tunnel, it should bring... some peace of mind to many potential sellers. Many of the homeowners who decided not to sell in 2020 will enter the market later this year as they begin to feel more comfortable showing their house in person, understanding their financial situation, and simply having more security in life. More New Homes Will Be Built Last year was a strong year for home builders, and according to NAHB, 2021 is expected to be even better. For 2021, NAHB expects ongoing growth for single-family construction. It will be the first year for which total single-family construction will exceed 1 million starts since the Great Recession. Those Impacted Financially by the Economic Crisis Many experts don’t anticipate a large wave of foreclosures coming to the market, given the forbearance options afforded to current homeowners throughout the pandemic. Some homeowners who have been impacted economically will, however, need to move this year. In those cases, homeowners may decide to sell their houses instead of going into the foreclosure process, especially given the equity in homes today. Housing demand is high and supply is low, so if you’re thinking of moving, it’s a great time to do so.

It’s a common misconception that homebuyers need to provide a 20% down payment when they close on their home. In reality, the median down payment is much lower, thanks in part to factors like equity and down payment assistance programs.

According to many experts, the real estate market is expected to continue growing in 2021, and it’s largely driven by the lasting impact the pandemic is having on our lifestyles. Here are 4 reasons people are reconsidering where they live and why they’re expecting to buy a home this year. Record-Low Mortgage Interest Rates According to Freddie Mac, the average 30-year fixed interest rate today is 2.65%. Many wonder how low these rates will go and how long they’ll last. Len K...eifer, Deputy Chief Economist for Freddie Mac, advises, If you’ve found a home that fits your needs at a price you can afford, it might be better to act now rather than wait for future rate declines that may never come and a future that likely holds very tight inventory. Working from Home Remote work is a new normal for many businesses, and it’s lasting longer than most expected. Many are discovering they don’t need to live close to the office anymore and they can get more for their money by moving a little further outside of the city limits. For some people, working remotely in their current home is challenging, especially when there may be other options available. More Outdoor Space Another new priority for homeowners is having more usable outdoor space. Being at home is driving those in some areas to seek less densely populated neighborhoods so they have more room to stretch their legs. Avoiding Renovations It’s recently come to light that many homeowners would also rather buy a new home than go through the process of fixing up the one they have. Depending on what needs to be addressed, today’s high buyer demand may make it possible to skip some renovations before selling. Many of these homeowners have prioritized buying over renovating for convenience and potential cost savings. It’s clear that homeownership needs are changing. As a result, Americans are expected to move in record numbers this year. If you’re trying to decide if now is the right time to buy a home, DM me today to discuss your options. . . #FirstTimeHomeBuyer #HousingMarket #RealEstateMarket #HouseHunting #HouseShopping #HomeForSale #MakeMeMove #KeepingCurrentMatters #REMAX #REMAXTerrasol #REMAXagent
