Tips from Ted July 30, 2012
Cromford Report: Demand for single-family homes is very strong . . .

Why?
Multiple offers are back, especially in the $100,000-$300,000 price range. Investors are here with cash in hand. See something you like? Grab it. One property had 95 offers–51 of them were investors.
Active adult communities have increased realty activity, but, not currently at the same pace as non-age qualified.

How much better can it get?
The Wall Street Journal reported today that 15-year mortgage rates fell further to average 2.97% with lowest fees circling 0.7% of the loan amount. These numbers are significant having fallen below 3% since Freddie Mac started tracking it.
Don't forget the 30-year rate fell last week to an average 3.75%.
Ask yourself if this is the time to buy—"Home much better can it get?" TF
