Insights for Buyers, Sellers, and Investors

For Buyers and Sellers

The market is seeing more choices for home buyers, although prices and inventory levels can vary widely by neighborhood. Sellers are advised to price their homes competitively to attract buyers quickly.

Investor Strategies

Investors are deploying strategies like “subject to” transactions, which allow them to assume existing mortgages. This is becoming increasingly popular as borrowing costs remain high. Homeowners with USDA, FHA, or VA loans can also benefit from these strategies by selling their homes at a premium, attracting more buyers.
