January 2015 was solid and we were very busy. New listings are starting to trickle out but we need a bunch more so please contact us if you have questions about how to get your home on the market. If you're coming down to Raleigh for a winter break, why not look at a few homes while you're here. It's fun and you might just be surprised at how much home your money can buy here. If you want a quick real estate tour, contact us, we'd love to show you around!
While the numbers this month indicate a small slump on the overall market we were very busy having one of our best months in many years in January. We were also slammed the first week of February and expect this month to be a very strong month for sales.
Interest rates remain very low and Lenders continue to slowly ease credit standards for home loans. Both Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac continue to make regular changes to their lending standards, some positive for buyers and some negative but generally leaning in favor of relaxing standards and easing the process of obtaining a new home mortgage.
The National Economy continues to improve with a very positives jobs report issued last week. The public now appears to be "On Board" and believing that the recovery is actually real. Wage growth is starting to pick up and the drastic decline in gas prices is putting more money in the pockets of most Americans. All these positive signs point to a stronger real estate market across the nation.
