3 Reasons to Take Advantage of Historically Low Mortgage Rates
You may have heard that 30-year fixed rate mortgages are low, but just how low are they? With standard mortgage interest rates hovering between 3% and 4%, they are currently the lowest they have ever been!
As of this writing, average 30-year mortgage rates for the previous week ending 05/28/2020 stand at just 3.15%. This is a phenomenal opportunity for both buyers and sellers in West Virginia and I’ll tell you why.
The Time to Buy or Sell a House Is NOW!
Attention Buyers: Rates WILL go up. It is not a matter of if, but when. Whether you’ve been ready and looking to buy for some time, have been saving up for a down payment, or even seriously considering entering the market, the time to buy is NOW!
Attention Sellers: Demand is very high for houses in the north central West Virginia market right now! We have interested buyers calling in daily. The time to sell? It’s right now!
Tell your mother, tell you father, son, daughter, cousin, friend, coworker, neighbor – and even let your dog in on it, too (we’re not sure if dog houses are eligible, but we bet he will be excited anyways)!
#1 Enjoy More Money In Your Pocket Each Month
For every 1% increase in a 30-year mortgage for a $100,000 home loan, your payment goes up approximately $50 each month. That is interest. You earn no equity on that amount. It is profit for your bank and you’ll never see it again. Over the course of your loan, you lose out on more than $18,000!
Let’s Look at the Numbers
Let’s compare mortgage rates from last year at this time. You can clearly see how much more money you can have in your pocket each month now and for the duration of your 30-year mortgage loan when you buy now! Those rates can’t stay this low for long. The time to buy is NOW!
#2 Choose From a Wide Selection of Homes
Whether buying or selling, we anticipate that an unprecedented number of individuals will take advantage of these amazing, historically low mortgage interest rates.
