"Given the events of the last year, the situation is in many ways better than feared a year ago. Mortgage defaults by homeowners, for example, are below pre-pandemic levels because of the fiscal support rolled out for families; business debt overall is high but strong earnings, low rates, and government support "have increased the ability of businesses to service these obligations."" https://www.reuters.com//fed-says-stock-market-boom-ebull/

When the current market lacks inventory and buyers are in need of finding a home it’s more important than ever to understand your wants and needs and get educated about the process so that you can keep a cool head in this market. Make sure that you are clear in your intentions to buy and the maximum you are prepared to pay. It’s about knowing your tolerance for risk. In most cases you will find yourself competing in an offer situation. In order to reach a slam dunk your realtor needs to study the players and then set the shot. You want to come out a winner, in a fair game with no one crying foul later. 289-221-4564 [email protected] #mariaongaro #realestate #realtorsofinstagram #realtorlife #remaxhallmark #buyersagent #homesweethome #forthewin #theseshoesaremadeforwalking
