Buyer's Paradise: Why Now is a Good Time to Buy a New Home:
Even though the media leads us to believe that it's a poor time to buy a new home here in Ontario, the current economic situation actually
favors most home buyers.
If you plan to purchase a home and stay in it longer than three years, now is the best time to buy a house.
Wow, can we be hit with any more doom and gloom financial news?
Over and over, we are bombarded by the media as to how bad things are in the economy, which leaves you thinking that now is
actually a poor time to buy a new home not only in Ontario, but throughout this continent.
Gas had been hitting record highs or lows, week after week, inflation is still increasing at a faster rate than in recent years,
people are losing their jobs, and the real estate market is being pounded by the many adjustable rate mortgages that are now adjusting to
higher payments, many of which people are unable to afford.
Despite the current state of affairs, now is definitely a good time to buy a house in Ontario.
According to some, the outlook to buy a new home may be grim - it's reported that existing home sales will decrease nearly 7%
this year, and new home sales are expected to decrease 19%.
And with a nod to the times, some Builders In Ontario have dropped the price of their inventory.
Real estate is going through an adjustment period, and for many potential buyers, now is a good time to buy a house if there are
available funds to secure the financing.
Mortgage interest rates are still low compared to historical data, and home prices are also similarly low compared to what some
of them were 1-2 years ago.
The point I'm trying to convey is that now is, in fact, a good time to buy a house for those buyers who weren't able to buy a new
home when the real estate boom was happening.
People looking to buy a new home and invest in properties (keeping them for a long-term period) would also benefit from the
current state of the housing market.
Making the Most of Your Investment
Many financial speculators recommend that, while now is a good time to buy a house, you need to keep the property for three or
more years; however, if your plan is to buy a new home and then sell it within that window of time, you'd be better off renting.
