When we talk to people about their real estate goals, we often hear they’re planning to wait. Hoping to time the market just right.

Waiting feels safe. Like the perfect moment is just around the corner.

The truth? Waiting often comes with a cost. If you're financially ready, the best time to buy a home is now.

No one has a crystal ball. What we do know is home prices are climbing in most parts of the country, and at the pace prices are rising, waiting months or years for lower rates often means paying more in the long run. The increase in home prices often outpaces the savings from a slightly lower interest rate. Plus, if interest rates do drop, as so many say they are waiting for, more buyers will flood the market. That means more competition, more pressure, and more people bidding to drive home prices up.

Remember, if rates improve after you buy, you can always refinance. What you can’t do is rewind time.

This moment matters. Jobs are growing. Demand is rising. Home equity is up across the country. The people who made a move a few years ago are reaping the rewards now.
