JOHN’S MONDAY TAKE 🏡

Here’s what buyers should know this week:

• Mortgage rates held steady near 6.66%.
• North Texas home prices are essentially flat—not crashing.
• Builders are carrying nearly 10 months of new-home inventory nationally.
• Slower demand may create opportunities for price reductions, closing-cost help or rate buydowns.

My advice: Buy when the home and payment make sense today, negotiate intelligently, and treat a future refinance as a bonus—not a promise.

Considering a purchase? Let’s review the complete payment and your negotiating options before you make an offer.

FOR YOUR BUYERS:

• “Rates did not change much, but your negotiating position may have improved.”
• “Let’s compare a price reduction, seller-paid costs and a rate buydown to determine which creates the best value.”
• “We’ll build the plan around a payment you can afford today; a future refinance would be a bonus.”
• “If you’re self-employed, reviewing your income documentation before shopping can prevent surprises after you’re under contract.”

FOR YOUR SELLERS:
• Look for opportunities to be different and target market (free resources through social media into target groups)
• Find other incentives for your buyers (lender buydown, leave furniture/fixture, decorating allowance)
• Don’t stop being creative and don’t forget the marketing basics of consistency of your plan
• Coach patience through this market

Hope this helps - -and HERE FOR YOU!

We always felt encouraged through this process, as overwhelming as it all can be at times . We liked not feeling backed into any corners and being given multiple options to think through . 10/10 would recommend!
