“Ba-dee-ya, say do you remember? Ba-dee-ya dancin in September. Now December found the love we shared in September.” These are the classic lyrics to the iconic Earth, Wind and Fire song September. September, one of my favorite songs, got me thinking about the state of the housing market. Yes, mortgage rates have moved back up slightly. Yes, property values increased this, Summer.
Ba-dee-ya let’s get dancing in September. Based on the 2022 U.S. Housing Market Data the best months to buy a house year-over-year are from September through February! This is partially due to the holiday season, seasonal changes in pricing, and homebuyer competition declining that create a short downswing in the real estate market—this is especially advantageous for buyers. Additionally, many families want to settle in a new house before the start of the school year in the fall, so they exit the market opening doors for buyers still in the market.
If you are dancing in September, what is the love we share in December? The love of your new home! While the market remains hot, historically you have a better opportunity to find better value September through February than you do during the spring homebuying season. The majority of price reductions occur during the winter while the more properties sold above the listing price from March to August. For example, only 23% of homes sold above the listing price in December 2022, as opposed to 59.1% in May 2022.
There is still time to make your goal of becoming a homeowner in 2023 happen. What is stopping you from taking the first step to financial freedom in 2023? Worried about interest rates? Homeownership is still more affordable than renting today. The FDM Purchase Power Program locks in your rate while you shop for your new home.
Ba-dee-ya…..there is still time to find your dream home in 2023. Questions about Interest Rates, Cash-to-Close or Credit? Ask your FDM Mortgage Professional for assistance today.
