Competitive Rates — Even Lower Rates for Repeat Borrowers

But first, here are three informative summaries of current happenings in the real estate investment market, all of which can help you direct your energies more wisely, as our overriding goal is to make your fix-to-rent, fix-to-flip, and new-build construction initiatives the best they can be in terms of ROI.
US Housing Market Heating Up Even as Weather Temps Cool
US News and World Report sees two reasons for the predicted uptick in real estate market: declining mortgage rates and decreased Realtor fees, stating,
“With inflation continuing to ebb and 30-year fixed mortgage rates declining below 6.5% for the first time in over a year, hopes are rising for a semifrozen housing market to thaw out even as the summer selling season draws to a close. In addition, given the historic settlement by the National Association of Realtors, encouraging more negotiations between buyers and sellers on the commission rates paid to real estate agents, reduced transaction costs could also translate into lower home prices.” It then takes the time to articulate the hottest real estate markets in the country as of its release. Read the article to be more informed about where you might want to spend your real estate investment dollars.
In a related vein, Redfin is also saying to expect mortgage rates to drop, printing: “Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell told the central bank’s annual gathering on Friday that ‘the time has come for policy to adjust,’ all but confirming the Fed will cut rates at its next policy meeting on September 18.”
The article goes on to say: “Rate cuts will likely start on September 18, but the size and pace will depend on incoming economic data, particularly labor market data.” With this in mind, start timing your initiatives geared toward expanding — or even beginning to create — your real estate portfolio.
‘Whether selecting pet-friendly materials or incorporating built-in feeding stations and cozy nooks, homeowners are designing spaces that prioritize the needs of all family members, including pets,’ says Marine Sargsyan, an economist at Houzz, a home remodeling website.” This has led to the creation of a new term: “An entire home design movement, called ‘barkitecture,’ has been inspired by pets.” Are the projects you are working on now taking this trend into account? Should they? Read on to decide.
