Do you have clients "waiting until rates come down" to get into the homebuying market? Probably not the best plan. Rent prices continue to rise. In Atlanta rent is rising almost THREE TIMES as much as wage growth. There are so many options for first time homebuyers and sources of down payment assistance. Have your clients call me today to find out more. Check out this report from WSBTV: Atlanta metro rent prices grew almost 3 times faster than wages since 2019, study says By Sam Sachs, WSBTV.com May 09, 2024 at 7:02 am EDT ATLANTA — A study of rental prices and wage growth across the United States from real estate company Zillow shows that rents have continued to grow faster than how much renters are getting paid since 2019. While the national average showed rents were growing 1.5 times faster than wages across the U.S., in Atlanta, rent prices were growing almost twice as much compared to wages in the metro, even before the COVID pandemic. Zillow, and analysis partner StreetEasy, reported that rent in the Atlanta metro was 2.92 times faster than wage growth, with rent increasing 35.6% compared to wages growing only 12.2%.

Good insights from a few industry leaders about LO comp and the future of payouts and offers. The quicker we realize the market is no longer as it was, the more acceptable we will be to changing our expectations on pay. We are still in a great industry, we just need to recalibrate our expectations and know how to pivot! #locomp National Mortgage News Joshua I Oleesky Andre Kahramanian

Bidding wars in real estate have been the norm for me since about 2015 in the DC Metro region. I counsel many buyers who have struggled to win and are looking for a new team or perspective to help change their luck. Most believe they keep losing to those willing to pay a higher price. When I dig deeper, I find it is often about much more than price alone. In this video, I give a few of my basic principles behind winning in competitive situations. While explaining these winning strategies, you should know that there is an art to winning that also involves something very important and often missed...that is tip #4 in the video! I hope you enjoy...feel free to ping me if you have any questions or thoughts regarding these strategies! #realestate #mortgagetips #dmvrealestate #multipleoffers #realtors https://lnkd.in/gQqU6Ybc
