March Into Home Ownership - Why NOW is the time to buy!

When was the last time interest rates were this low while the selection of available homes was the highest in a decade? Historically, the correct answer is Never. By way of example, an interest rate of 8.0% is 45% more expensive than a 5.5% interest rate. Generally speaking, this means that if you qualify for a $400,000 loan today you will only qualify for a $275,000 home when interest rates go to 8.0%.

Man holding house, buyers have the powerThe new loan limits HUD is rolling out will be good through the end of 2008, interest rates are historic lows and San Diego has an outstanding inventory of homes for sale. These are all indicators that taking advantage of ownership in San Diego real estate is a wise idea. The new maximum FHA loan limit in San Diego County is expected to be $729,500. By law, the new loan limit must be established by the 15th of March, 30 days after the bill was written into law.

Rarely are buyers in control in Southern California, however for many months now they have been. Cyclical housing downturns occur regularly, but they do not last forever. Buyers could not be kept out of the housing market indefinitely, and cycles often result in values going down and then rebounding to even higher levels!

Economic reports
about San Diego reveal that the market is still growing, albeit at a more moderate pace. Even after the loss of 89,000 people, the California still had a net gain of over 400,000 people. By 2050, our Golden State is expected to reach a population of 60 million! San Diego County’s population grew by 22,000 last year, bringing it up to nearly 3 million. By 2050 it is expected to grow to 4 million! Bottom line is that all of these people will all need a home in which to live.

The media reminds you that California leads the nation in foreclosures, but fails to mention that it is in part because California also has the greatest number of homes and mortgages in the nation to begin with. Out of the 1,456 zip codes in California, the foreclosure problem only exists, primarily, in 20% (293) of those zip codes. And, the bulk of the foreclosures in the 293 zip codes are in the Inland Empire, the Central Valley and Sacramento region.

With San Diego’s large and diversified economy, its location on the Pacific Rim, and its great climate, doesn’t it make sense to purchase your home when money is so affordable, prices are down, and when there is such a great selection of homes from which to choose?

I say March is a great time to march into home ownership.
