Contrary to what you may see or hear on the news, yes you can get a mortgage. If you have a job, a decent credit rating, and at least 3% down payment, there is a very good chance you can get a mortgage right now.</p>
<p>Interest rates continue to be at at all time low, home prices are down, the economy is in the tank, it is 100% a buyers market out there &#8211; for now. There is absolutely no better time to buy a house in the Lehigh Valley than today. The longer you wait, you risk prices and interest rates going up, especially if you wait until spring or summer. As it is, real estate is a seasonal business. It is always better to buy in the fall and winter, than to buy in spring or summer.</p>
<p>If you are a potential home buyer, almost everything is on YOUR side right now. But all than can change very quickly. Experts are predicting we are at, or near the bottom of the market. This means that at any moment things will start turning around. When that happens, it will cost you more money to buy a house.</p>
<p>If you would like more information about getting a mortgage or buying a house in the Lehigh Valley, I invite you to call me today to discuss your home buying options.</p>
