- Keep an eye on the Fed's movements. The fed cut last week .25 point. Although it does not directly effect mortgage rates. It does effect inflation and bond pricing which does effect mortgage rates.
- Keep an eye on the amount that homes are declining in value per month. Right now homes are dropping around 2.6% per month. When you start to see that number go down, it may be signaling a a bottom.
- The only way we will know the bottom has formed is when home prices start to go back up :)
Always Always Always buy a home in a GREAT location. Homes in locations that are in high demand hold value in declining markets.
