Woohoo....today were going to be talking (HOI)!
I know, I know... boring is what you're thinking, but just think how smart you'll look when you use HOI in a sentence correctly. Ok, soooo even that may not impress you, but if you're in the market for a house, it is a term you may want to know.
The HOI (Housing Opportunity Index) indicated that 72.6% of all new and existing homes sold in the second quarter of the year, were affordable to families earning the national median income of $64,200 (Information from Realty Times). So, what does that mean to all you house hunters out there? Well, what that means is that there has not been a better time in the last 20 years to buy a home. Think about how reasonable home prices are, and how low interest rates are. If you had one OR the other, it would be good--but to have both is unreal. Yes, Skip, but I have heard that banks won't lend money. Well, the money is tighter than it was, say in 2003-05, but if you have fair to good credit, it is a really good time to purchase.
Grace & Peace...
