So, Jim is buying a house (again). Here to talk about why, and what it’s been like participating in the current market, is Jim himself. Alayna and Jim talk about a mortgage pro’s take on the home buying process.

Why Now?!

Rates. They’re heading down, but that doesn’t mean they’re great. And that’s saying nothing about the general affordability of housing, the competitive nature of the market, and the lack of inventory.

So why now?

Well, a house popped on the market in a neighborhood Jim and his wife had always dreamed of moving into. They went to the open house, and the price was attainable. So, they quickly got a pre-qual through the same lender they had used for their last home. The process was quick, and everything went smoothly.

Sometimes it’s just the right time, and Jim’s story shows that it might not be that crazy after all for homebuyers to come off the fence.
