A lot of my clients in Richmond have been asking me whether now is a good time to buy or sell real estate in Richmond. A lot of them have been asking about interest rates, and those are all very valid concerns.

Interest rates are currently sitting at 4% for a 30-year loan. If you waited six months when the rate was at 5% and you were borrowing $400,000, you would end up paying an extra $237 per month on your mortgage. That's just because of a 1% increase in rates!

I recommend that you lock in a low interest rate right now. This will give you the opportunity to save thousands of dollars over the lifetime of a loan. The longer you wait, the more your buying power will disappear.

If you need any help finding a good lender, please don't hesitate to contact me. I would be very happy to refer you to one!
