Spring is here which signals that the real estate selling season has started in earnest.

From the conversations we’ve been having recently, there seems to be some uncertainty in the marketplace at the moment. People are speculating about what prices and interest rates will do, but there are a few things that we’re certain of…

• Real estate isn’t getting cheaper – the longer you wait, the higher the prices. So if you want to buy, keep your eye on your goal, get everything in place so that you’re in position to negotiate when you find the right property.
• Interest rates are great – they’re still at historical lows and if there’s any way you can take advantage of them, you should.
• I can help you – Whether you just want to discuss your plans, meet to work out your numbers and borrowing capacity or if you’re ready for a mortgage, I’m just a phone call away.

Every day I’m talking to people in the industry – buyers, sellers, lenders, investors, home owners, real estate agents – so if you want to know what’s really going on, give me a call. I’m happy to share my insights with you.

There are some great opportunities out there right now and I’d love to help you secure finance for your first home, dream home or investment property.

It’s also a great time to re-finance if your loan is more than two years old.

If you have friends, family or work colleagues who are in the market for home loan advice, please feel free to forward this email to them. I’d love to chat to them!
