Buying-or-Selling-a-Home-During-the-COVID-Era

While the pandemic has affected many of us in some way, the housing market is still as active as ever, and the process for buying or selling a home is largely unchanged. This article covers some home buying/selling facts that you should be aware of in case you’re in the market.

Home Buying is Just as Competitive as Ever

It’s understandable how many would think the market would be more barren considering the financial climate. However, with lower interest rates, people are being incentivized to buy homes.

Home Prices

If you’re thinking the prices are going to drop because of the virus, that’s probably not the case. Like in most any other time in history, the cost of a home is going to depend on trends and location.

In-Home Visits

If you’re uncomfortable touring a home in person due to COVID, ask for pictures or a video walkthrough from the realtor. This will help you narrow down houses that may be contenders.
