Hudson Valley Happenings Blog : Yes It Is A Great Time To Buy Your First Home!

Yes It Is A Great Time To Buy Your First Home!

I am getting a lot of questions from potential first time homebuyers regarding their chances to buy a house in today's uncertain market. It is a great time to buy your first home.  Prices are good and interest rates are still low.  There are many programs out there today to help the first time purchaser (Note:  Even if you have owned a home before you can still qualify as a first time homebuyer in many cases as long as it has been more than 3 years since you owned a house.)  

For those of you in the Greater Hudson Valley of New York, I am hosting a first time homebuyer seminar on Dec. 11, 2008 in Middletown, NY.  Please find the information below regarding the seminar.  Call or email me today to register or to be notified of future seminars if this one does not fit your schedule.  Hope to see you or someone you know there.

This is great info Paddy.  I think that some people don't know how easy it can be to buy a home....especially if they are working with a great realtor that will help them through and knows how to get them into a home.

It can be easy Cristal but it is nice to have someone around to help through the rough spots as well.  Thanks for stopping by.

Paddy, We need all sorts of home buyers in our area too... It is a great time to buy as I do not remember prices being this low for quite some time...

Hi Paddy,

Hope you have a good turnout. Sing and sing louder the facts that money is available and home prices are at their best.

This market presents the best opportunity for first time buyers in a really long time.  Due to the reduced prices, homeownership is actually more affordable to a larger percentage of people now, than just a couple years ago.

Thanks Carole I hope so

You are right Bubba. Thanks for stopping by

We need to sing loud to drown out the negative press Hal

It is so true Myrl. Thanks for the back up.

Ahhhhh, to be a first time homebuyer in today's market... I'm so jealous I could spit!!

All kidding aside, today's market provides the perfect storm of opportunity for today's first time homebuyer.  Low prices PLUS low interest rates!  There is less competition for the homes on the market today and a generous $7,500 first time homebuyer tax credit thrown in as well!!
