Right now is a good time to buy – let me tell you why! Even with higher interest rates, there is still a lot of demand for homes in the Conejo Valley – which is keeping our home values strong.
Interest rates are expected to come down in 2024, which will most likely lead to a frenzy of buyers entering the market. When this happens, competition will be fierce and prices will go higher.
I encourage all my buyers to find a home now, so you can get the price you want without too much competition. Then refinance when rates come down later in the year.
The first thing I’ll provide you with is a copy of my Buyers Guide. This will let you know what the process ahead is going to look like. There are a lot of steps and do’s and dont’s you should be aware of as we start down this path.
Before we start looking at homes, you need to get Pre-approved (not just “pre-qualified”). In today’s market, some Sellers won’t let you preview their home without a pre-approval letter in hand. You’ll need to work with a lender, and I have some great ones I can put you in touch with.
Once we narrow down the area, price range, and specifics of what you want in a home, I will set you up on a personalized MLS search. We will both get notified the instant a house hits the market that fits your criteria.
When you find a home you love, we will put together a compelling offer – In this highly competitive market, we need to make sure YOUR offer stands out! There are some creative strategies we can employ to have the highest probability of a favorable response.
Once your offer is accepted, we go into Escrow. During this time there will be inspections and an appraisal of the property. I will be overseeing all of this and making sure everything moves along as smoothly as possible so you can close on time.
When the transaction is complete, my job doesn’t end! I want to be your Realtor for Life. Whatever your home needs are over the years, I will be your go to resource. Do you need a painter, a plumber, or a contractor? I’ve got you covered.
Let me know what you’re looking for and I will set up a personalized MLS search for you! No obligation.
