3 Reasons to Buy a Home
1. Great Inventory — More Choices
Anyone looking for a home today will find a tremendous selection—nearly 14,000 properties are listed in the Cincinnati MLS. Whether you’re looking for a starter home, a high-end custom home or something in between, you’ll find just the home you’re looking for.
2. Low Interest Rates — More Buying Power
Mortgage rates determine how much you can afford. With the current low rates, you have
significantly more buying power. How low are rates today? Those who bought a home in 1963 were paying roughly the same rate as you’ll pay today. The rates won’t stay this low forever. Buying a home now can save you thousands of dollars in interest.
3. Homeownership Will Always be a Good Investment
Even if you are on the fence for now, that’s OK. There will be plenty of opportunities to buy a home when you’re ready. Homeownership is a vital engine in the American economy. It creates strong communities and builds wealth for families who buy homes. Homeownership won’t go out of style. Homeowners are invested in our communities. They are the joiners, fixer-uppers, and watchdogs that make our nation strong. Nine out of 10 consumers consider homeownership to be a sound financial decision. Purchasing a home is a great way to invest your money. In the past 40 years, real estate has delivered the most consistent positive return over any investment. When you are buying a home, you are building equity and adding to your assets.

Take Pictures Now to Sell House Later
A picture is worth a thousand words. That is true, especially when selling your home.
Often times moving is not by choice, but because of a job transfer or dramatic change in a family's life. Here's a little tip to help during those times when you have to sell your home unexpectedly.
Take digital photos of your home all year round. Especially in spring, summer and fall when the yard is looking it's best. Remember, no people in these shots. You want to show off the property. If you have a flower garden or tree that looks great, take a picture. Then, make a computer file of these photos to forward to your Realtor.
If you then have to sell in the dead of winter you can bring out the photos of what your home looks like in all seasons. These photos can be uploaded to MLS or you can create a scrapbook to place on the counter when potential buyers stop by. It will show how great your house looks and how proud you are of it.

Renovating Creates Better Resale Value
If you are planning any projects to update or renovate your home this spring, plan to keep records of the amount you spend. This information can be used to justify a higher listing or sales price of your home.
When listing a home, as a Realtor, I ask my clients if they have made any changes to the home in the last 5 years. Certainly, the best updates include.. finishing a lower level of a home. Adding a bathroom in a lower level. Updating kitchen countertops. Flooring upgrades.
You may not get all the money back from your renovation but it will help to get a higher price for your home when it comes to sell.
If you want advice on remodeling projects, contact your Sibcy Cline Realtor, Michelle Sloan.
