WHAT TO EXPECT IN 2021!?

The continued rock bottom, historically low-interest rates in spite of the slight increases last couple of weeks and strong buyer traffic with better weather conditions which seems will hold through the end of the Winter and start of Spring, which is traditionally the start of the busiest home shopping season in the Northeast.

Several points to consider:

- In Clifton as well as other towns and neighborhoods we’re 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 Mortgage bankers association estimate 2.7 million homeowners are still in forbearance and might come up in the market later on mostly as traditional sellers given the strong appreciation in the last few years, however, it would not be surprising to see some short sales and even foreclosures later in the year.
- 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.
