Is It Easier To Find a Home To Buy Now?
One of the biggest hurdles buyers have faced over the past few years has been a lack of homes available for sale. But that’s starting to change.
The graph below uses the latest data from Realtor.com to show there are more homes on the market in 2024 than there have been in any of the past several years (2021-2023):
Does That Mean Finding a Home Is Easier?
The answer is yes, and no. As an article from Realtor.com says:
“There were nearly 15% more homes for sale in February than a year earlier . . . That alone could jolt the housing market a bit if more “For Sale” signs continue to appear. However, the nation is still suffering from a housing shortage even with all of that new inventory.”
Context is important. On the one hand, inventory is up over the past few years. That means you’ll likely have more options to choose from as you search for your next home.
But, at the same time, the graph above also shows there are still significantly fewer homes for sale than there would usually be in a more normal, pre-pandemic market. And that deficit isn’t going to be reversed overnight.
What Does This Mean for You?
You might find a few more choices now than in recent years, but you shouldn’t expect a ton of options.
To help you explore the growing list of choices you have now, team up with a local real estate agent you trust. They can really help you understand the inventory situation where you want to buy. That’s because real estate is local. An experienced agent can share some smart tips they’ve used to help other buyers in your area deal with ongoing low housing supply.
Bottom Line
If you’re thinking about buying a home, team up with a local real estate agent. That way, you’ll be up to date on everything that could affect your move, including how many homes are for sale right now.
Single Women Are Embracing Homeownership
In today’s housing market, more and more single women are becoming homeowners. According to data from the National Association of Realtors (NAR), 19% of all homebuyers are single women, while only 10% are single men.
If you’re a single woman trying to buy your first home, this should be encouraging. It means other people are making their dreams a reality – so you can too.
Why Homeownership Matters to So Many Women
For many single women, buying a home isn’t just about having a place to live—it’s also a smart way to invest for the future. Homes usually increase in value over time, so they’re a great way to build equity and overall net worth. Ksenia Potapov, Economist at First American, says:
“. . . single women are increasingly pursuing homeownership and reaping its wealth creation benefits.”
The financial security and independence homeownership provides can be life-changing. And when you factor in the personal motivations behind buying a home, that impact becomes even clearer.
The same report from NAR shares the top reasons single women are buying a home right now, and the reality is, they’re not all financial (see chart below):
If any of these reasons resonate with you, maybe it’s time for you to buy too.
Work with a Trusted Real Estate Agent
If you’re a single woman looking to buy a home, it is possible, even in today’s housing market. You’ll just want to be sure you have a great real estate agent by your side.
Talk about what your goals are and why homeownership is so important to you. That way your agent can keep what’s critical for you up front as they guide you through the buying process. They’ll help you find the right home for your needs and advocate for you during negotiations. Together, you can make your dream of homeownership a reality.
Bottom Line
Homeownership is life-changing no matter who you are. Connect with a local real estate agent to talk about your goals in the housing market.
What’s the Latest with Mortgage Rates?
Recent headlines may leave you wondering what’s next for mortgage rates. Maybe you’d previously heard there were going to be cuts this year that would bring rates down. That refers to the Federal Reserve (the Fed) and what they do to their Fed Funds Rate. While cutting, or lowering, the Fed Funds Rate doesn’t directly determine mortgage rates, it does tend to impact them. But when the Fed met last week, a cut didn’t happen — at least, not yet.
There are a lot of factors the Fed considered in their recent decision and most of them are complex. But you don’t need to be bogged down by those finer details. What you really want is the answer to this question: does that mean mortgage rates aren’t going to fall? Here’s what you need to know.
Mortgage Rates Are Still Expected To Drop This Year
While it hasn’t happened yet, that doesn’t mean it won’t. Even Jerome Powell, the Chairman of the Fed, says they still plan to make cuts this year, assuming inflation cools:
“We believe that our policy rate is likely at its peak for this tightening cycle and that, if the economy evolves broadly as expected, it will likely be appropriate to begin dialing back policy restraint at some point this year.”
When this happens, history shows mortgage rates will likely follow. That means hope isn’t lost. As a recent article from Business Insider explains:
“As inflation comes down and the Fed is able to start lowering rates, mortgage rates should go down, too. . .”
What This Means for You
But you don’t necessarily want to wait for it to happen. Mortgage rates are notoriously hard to forecast. There are so many factors at play and any one of those can change the projections as the economy shifts. And it’s why the experts offer this advice. As Mark Fleming, Chief Economist at First American, says:
“Well, mortgage rate projections are just that, projections, not promises and don’t forget how hard it is to forecast them. . . So my advice is to never try to time the market . . . If one is financially prepared and buying a home aligns with your lifestyle goals, then it could be the right time to purchase. And there’s always the refinance option if mortgage rates are lower in the future.”
Basically, if you’re looking to move and trying to time the market, don’t. If you’re ready, willing, and able to move, it may still be worth it to do it now, especially if you can find the home you’ve been searching for.
Bottom Line
If you’re looking to buy a home, connect with a local real estate agent so you have someone keeping you up-to-date on mortgage rates and helping you make the best decision possible.
TESTIMONIALS
Alexa was great to work with as a real estate agent and was always very professional. Our house was sold for cash the first week on the market. Great job Alexa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We were so glad to have Alexa as our realtor durning this very stressful time of selling our home. She made the process easy for use and was lways available to help and answer any questions we had. She is kind and very professional and I would absolutely recommend her about and beyond anyone else.
I must say I have never worked with an agent as responsive as Alexa. As a home buyter and seller, there is a lot of vacillation day to day among homes we had seen and Alexa was able to help us weed out the homes which really didn’t meet our criteria. We were very pleased with Alexa and would highly recommend her for anyone searching for a new home.
Due to my husband’s many transfers in his professional life, we have bought and sold homes over 30 times in the last 35 years. To say that the experience that we’ve had with Alexa in selling our property was the best experience we have ever had, is an understatement. We live hours away from the listing we gave her but that was never a problem.
We met Alexa at an open house in our neighborhood. After that we contacted her about putting our house on the market. She worked so hard, including having an open house, and in just 11 days she not only sold our home, but had multiple offers. And then, she got us in to the house of our dreams!!! Alexa gets it Done!
Alexa was extremely professional and showed she truly cared about not only selling my home but letting me know she was there anytime to answer any questions I may have had. It was a comfortable and stress free experience. Alexa takes her sincere pride and passion to work for you. My house was sold for cash the first week on the market. Outstanding Alexa!
We were very unfamiliar with all the details of purchasing a home in today's realty world. Needed long distance communication and assistance. Alexa gave above and beyond the knowledgeable information, help and communication to make this a pleasurable and rewarding experience, Any and all problems were promptly addressed.
Alexa was recommended to us by our former neighbor. From the first day we met her, we knew she was going to get the job done! We have bought and sold homes in the past but we have never worked with an agent as kind, respectful and professional as Alexa. She was able to sell our home less than 2 weeks of being on the market. Alexa communicated with us through the entire process. She has your best interested at heart. Alexa your AWESOME and we thank you for all you have done.
Alexa Silva brought her superior experience and professionalism to make the process of selling our family home. She is highly responsive and partners with clients to achieve the best result. She did a phenomenal job helping us sell and I highly recommend her!
Alexa is an excellent realtor! She handled everything via long distance when our family really needed expert help! THANK YOU!
We had a wonderful and easy experience. Alexa sold my house 1 day after the first showings for full price. She helped us with the purchase of our replacement home. We are enjoying our new home very much. Alexa is always very professional, prompt, keeps you informed every step of the process, and is an excellent negotiator. She knows the local market, especially pricing, I would highly recommend using her services in buying and selling your home.
Alexa was always available for questions and answers. She guided us in selling our house at the correct price and helped me look forward to our goal! I listened to an outstanding realtor and now a good friend. Thank you so much!! Excellent Service!!!
Alexa is an absolute professional and just a really nice person. My experience with her was outstanding! She was able to recommend other fantastic professionals who made the entire home buying experience even better. I would highly recommend her!
Such a pleasure to work with! The proof of our faith in Alexa lies in the numbers....6 buy and sell transactions in the last 18 months. We couldn't (and wouldn't) have done all this without her help and extensive knowledge of the market. Always a pleasure and a successful experience. High Recommended!
We came to Palm City on a whim and once we got here contacted Alexa and had the great pleasure of working with her and Joyce. They showed us around the area and took us to several neighborhoods to get a "feel" for the area. The entire process took only 12 days with 3 short visits coming up here until they found us our home! Alexa and Joyce took note of exactly what were looking for in the particular neighborhood that we had chosen and they delivered BIG time!
