Time in the Market Is Better Than Timing the Market

 Buying Now To Earn A Large Amount Of Equity In 5 Years

Shared by real estate broker Li Li Hwang

  

That’s why experts usually say time in the market is better than timing the market.

In other words, if you want to buy a home and you’re able to make the numbers work, doing it sooner rather than later is usually worth it. Bankrate explains why: 

“No matter which way the real estate market is leaning, though, buying now means you can start building equity immediately.”

The number $83,251 (may vary from region to region) shown above is quite attractive to most people who work hard day to day trying to live a comfortable life.  In reality, unfortunately, the majority of working class have little chance to save that kind of money in 5 years. The good news is - your  home could make it happen for you if you buy one today.

Bottom Line

  

Home equity is a magic vehicle which increases your asset quietly for you with the passing of time. If you are able and ready to buy a house, please give me a call. I will be more than happy to help you get the right one sooner than you might hope for.

2025 Housing Market Forecast: Mortgage Rates Expected to Ease, Home Prices to Stabilize

 Housing Market Forecast For 2025

Shared by Rancho Cucamonga real estate broker  Li Li Hwang

Mortgage rates should come down a bit – but don’t expect the return of 3%. Instead, budget for rates likely in the mid 6s by the end of the year. And home prices will keep rising, just not as fast. On average, experts are saying they’ll go up by about 3% this year – a much more normal, sustainable pace.

    ~ Above image and information provided by KCM ~   

Bottom Line

It seems that it is good news for those who are planning to buy a house in 2025. While the mortgage rate may just come down a little bit, the house price may go up about 3%. Considering the home equity you may get as a homeowner, it is for your benefit to buy a house the sooner the better.

The New Trend in Affordable Housing: Smaller, Practical Homes for Today's Buyers

Why More Builders Are Building Smaller 

Homes?

       Shared by Real Estate Broker Li Li Hwang

 As household composition shifts, builders look to the starter homes of yesteryear to deliver more practical, affordable single-family homes for today’s buyers.

Key points:

• The median new single-family home has fallen from 2,320 square feet in 2015 to 2,036 square feet in 2023.
• Homes are expected to keep shrinking as demand for smaller houses grows.
• Owners of small homes can still live large, as some new communities focus on lush landscaping, community amenities and a vibrant environment for residents.

~ Above information provided by Real Estate News, published on November 29, 2024 ~

Bottom Line

As inflation keeps rising, so is the construction cost for houses. This is not a bad news for small families of two or three members, especially for those newlywed and first-time home byers. Small size homes are more affordable yet you can still enjoy a home of your own.
