Housing Market Forecast: 2016

2016 is shaping up to be another challenging year for home buyers.

According to a press release from the National Association of Exclusive Buyers Agents (NAEBA), inventories are still low across the country, and prices are expected to continue to rise as more and more investors enter the market. Add in political uncertainty in an election year and volatility on Wall Street, and buyers may have a tough road ahead finding, and closing on, that perfect home. However, NAEBA also predicts that interest rates will remain low, making it a great time to buy if you do find the right deal.

Of course, the real estate market in San Diego has its own unique challenges and opportunities. Under these conditions, hiring an exclusive San Diego buyer’s agent is even more important. NAEBA expects sellers to continue pricing aggressively, and competition will be strong from investors who just want to “fix and flip”, so you really need an expert in your corner, looking out for YOU.

With my experience as an exclusive San Diego buyer's agent, I am uniquely positioned to help you navigate today’s San Diego housing market. I can help you work within your price point, take advantage of today’s low interest rates, and find your perfect neighborhood and your perfect home. I am also a Certified Negotiation Expert, meaning I have the training and experience to successfully represent you in a bidding war.

If you’re planning to buy a house in 2016, don’t be daunted by the challenges of the market. With the right team behind you, this can still be the year you get into the home of your dreams.

Exclusive Buyer Agents do not list homes for sale and never represent sellers. They have no "inventory" to try to sell you. They can represent you in purchasing any home. They are specialists at representing buyers only on the buyers' side of the transaction. Exclusive Buyer Agents work to get buyers the best price and terms when they buy a home.
