Prices are down, and it's
time to get off the fence
As 2023 progresses,
buyers are taking back
their power in the mar-
ket. Mortgage rates
climbing from their his-
toric lows in 2022 to an
average of nearly 7% for
a 30-year loan caused
some potential buy-
ers to pump the breaks
on their homeowner-
ship dreams. However,
savvy home shoppers
know that an increase
in interest rates means
a decrease in prices, and
real estate experts urge
potential buyers to strike
while the iron is hot.
Though the market
has cooled a bit due to
this rise, experts warn
that this favorable mar-
ket won't last long. Signs
of prospective homebuy-
ers are showing as we
enter the peak selling
season of the year.
Mortgage rates
peaked around Labor
Day and are already on
their way back down.
As inflation stabilizes,
interest rates decrease,
creating a perfect inter-
section between great
prices and declining
rates. This is an excellent
time for homebuyers to
take advantage of lower
prices and better financ-
ing options. In addition,
recent changes in credit
scoring models now
factor in rent, utilities
and telecom payments,
which helps offset the
recent rate increase.
This change makes
homeownership more
accessible to first-time
buyers and those with
smaller down payments.
Experian has also intro-
duced a new self-report-
ing platform that allows
users to report on-time
payments, resulting in
an instant increase in
their FICO score for
66% of users. Now is an
ideal time to get off the
fence about homeowner-
ship and take advantage
of this favorable window
in the market. Purchas-
ing a new home offers
the security of consistent
monthly payments and
the opportunity to grow
your investment through
home equity. Unlike
renting, owning a home
allows you to build a
long-term investment.
Jenuane's beautiful

ready homes makes a

nership with another
