What Does This Mean For Buyers?
Buyers searching for a home or condo to buy in Tampa should be prepared for competition to buy properties, overbidding is becoming more common. Buyers should also realize time is not on their side in two ways: interest rates are climbing which can increase the cost of your mortgage and with inventory levels so low properties are bought almost as soon as they are listed. Buyers should have financing in place and be ready to act when a property is found. Buyers may have to eliminate some must-have items in some cases to be able to acquire a property within their budget.
Buyers should work closely with their real estate agent so as to not miss out on new properties and to negotiate on behalf of the buyer. To find out how we help buyers accomplish their goals, give us a call today!
