Homes are selling

I was talking with a friend last night, and he commented that he had put his house on the market, and it went under contract in a week. Another friend’s home also went under contract quickly, so homes are selling. Both of these homes were in great condition, so homes that show well, and are priced correctly, should sell fairly quickly. Interest rates are creeping up, so if the economy continues to improve, interest rates will probably continue to increase.

Based on houses selling, low interest rates, and lower building costs, now is a good time to build. As the economy improves, interest rates and costs will increase. If you are concerned that your existing home needs work, we can help with the needed repairs to get it ready, so it shows well for potential buyers. That way you can get it sold, and get started on your new home.
