"D’angelo Williams made my first home buying experience stress free he was very communicative and helped to get me a good rate. As a first-time home buyer, I did not know what I was getting into but I could not have done this without his expertise and knowledge! Thank you to D’angelo and PrimeLending I will definitely be referring all my friends and family to D’angelo for their home buying needs." -Crystal B., San Antonio, TX #teamprimelending #mortgagelife #loanofficer #homeloans #homebuyer

Snagging a house in the summer comes with many perks, making it a hot season for buyers. With warmer weather and longer daylight hours, it’s easier to move and attend home showings when it’s not cold, raining, or snowing. Plus, summer typically has a higher inventory of homes for sale, giving buyers more options to choose from. For families with children, moving during the summer means not disrupting the school year and gives kids time to transition to new schools and neighborhoods before school begins. Not to mention, if the new home requires renovations or improvements, summer is a prime time to undertake these projects as the work can be completed without weather-related delays. In a nutshell, house-hunting in the summer can provide more convenience, joy and efficiency, with practical and lifestyle perks.

Playing the waiting game with mortgage rates? We totally get it! But, here’s why waiting for lower rates might not be the best idea if you can afford to buy a home sooner rather than later. When mortgage rates dropped in 2020-21, more buyers entered the market resulting in home price increases and bidding wars. Potential homebuyers priced out of today's market will be itching to buy if rates come back down. You may want to avoid the competition from other buyers flooding the market. While waiting for rates to come down, rising home prices could make the overall cost of homeownership more expensive. Not only have home prices increased but rent prices have increased too. You can lock in a steady mortgage payment now and enjoy the equity that you build in the years to come. Just waiting can be stressful. Analyzing market trends and monitoring the housing market can be draining. Plus, if you have specific time constraints (like your lease ending), waiting for rates may not be feasible. Ultimately, deciding to wait or not depends on your individual circumstances. Chat with a financial advisor or connect with a mortgage expert to help you weigh the pros and cons! https://lnkd.in/g_BZryk8
