Home prices rose in 78% of the nation’s metro markets last quarter, according to today’s NAR report. The average home price rose to around $432,900, up 1.7% year-over- year. Prices appreciated the most in the Northeast (4%) and Midwest (3.6%) regions, while the West saw a 0.6% drop. There's still ample opportunity for buyers though, with home prices declining in 21% of markets in Q3.

An unexpected turn? Perhaps. A home type worth exploring? Absolutely.

Sometimes, taking the road less traveled reveals new possibilities. There’s more than one path to homeownership, and different property types have different financing requirements. I can help you understand the options to bring you one step closer to “home,” whatever that may look like. Comment “trick-or-treat” if the results surprised you.
