Spring is traditionally the time when a high percentage of people considering a house move start to actively search for a new home.

But does it make any sense to wait until then?

There are some real advantages to getting that search underway right now!

With low inventory a seemingly ever-present factor in the Prescott area, this means that the inevitably higher number of buyers who will begin looking for a home in the Spring will only make the chase for available properties more challenging.

Start now and you'll find there's simply less buyer competition around. That can also have a positive impact on acceptable offer levels, from the buyer's perspective.Hanging around until March-April also risks something changing in the incredibly favorable current mortgage market.

Mortgage rates have been very low for some time, but the good news is that, after a period of small increases, they have been moving South yet again, providing a wonderful chance to lock in a low rate.

According to mortgage giant Freddie Mac, we are currently seeing the lowest rates for mid-January since 2013! Therefore waiting until Spring is arguably even less logical than usual. After all, there are no guarantees that rates won't have risen by then...
