Unless you live in San Francisco, New York, Washington, Los Angeles, Boston or San Diego, according to Forbes- You should be buying a house today! (Click on photo above to link to full article)
Rates are @ historic lows- I have clients locking in 4% this week when they were quoted 4.5% originally. They currently pay $1000 for rent now but after their tax savings, they can buy a $185,000 house with 4 bedrooms and a pool and their essential out of pocket is less than their current rent monthly.
We keep hearing rates are going up after the first of the year, now really is the time to buy your first home if you live in the Phoenix Metro area before YOU MISS THE BUS!

Integrity All Stars Featured in “HomeSpace.com”
Rebecca Hidalgo of the Integrity All Star Team was featured in HomeSpace.com.
She shared her wisdom as a “veteran” Real Estate agent specializing in short sales.
HomeSpace.com give advice to both buyers and sellers in the Phoenix, Las Vegas, San Diego, Dallas, Salt Lake City, and Atlanta areas. It is run by RealEstate.com
Expectations set by agents must be realistic. Tell them the ugly things, I have saved a couple of sales by jumping in, because the other agent wasn’t knowledgeable enough to fully advise their client.
