How’s the Market? Let’s begin by looking at current mortgage rates. The mortgage data below is from Bankrate.com (click on the image for more information). Although interest rates have risen they are still historically low. It may be time to lock in your rate. We may be seeing signs of things changing. Some experts have suggested that the market is stabilizing as properties are sitting on the market longer, are having to reduce their asking price, and many properties are receiving fewer offers than during the pandemic panic. Will this slow the current acceleration of prices as more homes come on the market?

Looking for the perfect home, it turns out, is a lot like looking for love. Prospective homebuyers frequently develop “crushes” on certain properties and drive by or go online for a second or third look while technically still playing the field, according to a recent survey. And what makes one buyer’s heart go all aflutter can leave another cold as a stone. The survey was conducted by Realtor.com, which polled 1,000 visitors to its website in the weeks leading up to Valentine’s Day. It found that 69 percent of consumers admitted to having a “home crush” — a property they liked so much they were drawn back to looking at it more than once, in person or online. The survey also revealed that in matters of the heart, like matters of the heart, men and women behave differently.
