WHAT TO EXPECT IN 2021!?

Interest rates ticked up a bit higher but still at historical lows and lack of homes available for sale is creating multiple offer situations and therefore price increases throughout the country.

The Northern New Jersey market as well is experiencing a strong buyer traffic and homes are going under contract in record time (usually (3-10 days) with multiple offers and in some cases way over asking.

Several points to consider:

• In Clifton as well as other towns and neighborhoods are experiencing a shortage of homes for the anxious and desirous buyers, it’s a market still good for move-up buyers and those homeowners usually enjoy substantial gains in appreciation in the last few years which help to entice sellers when purchasing another home by affording better terms and conditions.

• The Federal Housing Finance Agency is extending the assistance to homeowners wih loans backed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac currently in forebearance to receive another 3 months extending the Covid19 assistance to 18 months.

• The expected increase of buyers traffic (60.7% higher than same period last year per showingtime.com) for the foreseeable future (2021) due to buyers looking for a more suburban lifestyle, more outdoor/indoor space, more room to breath in the outskirts of bigger cities, especially now that working remotely has and is becoming the new norm.
