Fixed? Variable? ARM or Negative Amortization? Or Interest Only? With so many mortgage products available for homeowners, it can get overwhelming very quickly when deciding on the correct product that fits your needs. Here are some things to consider.

There's little doubt that the real estate marketplace is now in transition. Sales volume has begun to weaken and in many markets the days of quick sales and multiple offers are going or gone. The cooling from overheated sales conditions in recent months is helping to bring inventory levels up to the point where buyers have more choices than they've seen in the last five years. Annual price appreciation has been running at double-digit rates, but the cause of those sharp increases is going away. As the market readjusts, price appreciation should return to more normal rates of growth this year. Translation: Homes are not selling as quickly as before--that's good news for buyers. Sharp increases in value are moderating--that's also good news for buyers. Values are not falling--that's great news for sellers.

Waiting for the government to cut interest rates so you can lock into lower mortgage rates is a bad idea. First, the Fed is unlikely to lower rates this year. Second, it wouldnt matter even if they did.

For all of you that are "holding out"...NOW is the time. We have more homes for sale right now than we have ever had and in order to keep a balanced, healthy market we need to get through our inventory. If you've been kicking around the idea of buying a bigger home, now is an excellent time to buy up! We have 13 months worth of inventory on homes $300,000+. Now this does not mean that if you are selling a home over $300K that you can expect it to take 13 months. The number of homes for sale divided by the number of homes selling per month = the number of months of inventory. NW and SE Boise are selling the quickest with 3 months of inventory.

Real estate trivia- What happens when inventory of homes is plentiful and growing, sales are slow, construction is down and new developments and phases are everywhere and continue rolling out?

So what if the Federal Reserve raises interest rates! Sure, it makes the cost of borrowing on your credit cards and home equity line of credit more expensive. However, did you know that the Prime Rate has very little to do with the mortgage rate that you will get approved for on your next mortgage? Read on to see what really sets that mortgage rate!

In todays technology based world, most commodities could be bought online cheaper than in a brick and mortar store. Knowing this, should I feel like my life as a Realtor will be similar to how my stock broker felt when Charles Schwab came into the picture; or my travel agent felt when Priceline and Expedia were introduced?

It is important to understand that if a home has been on the market for over a year that the days on market does not directly coorilate into huge reductions and that the builder is ready and/or able to give the home away at a huge reduction.
