While competition is still fierce for homebuyers, there are ways you can win and secure the home of your dreams, even in a hot market.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Act Early and Save<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The earlier you act this year, the more affordable your purchase will be. That\u2019s because experts project <a title=\"mortgage rates\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mykcm.com\/2021\/11\/03\/experts-project-mortgage-rates-will-continue-to-rise-in-2022\/\">mortgage rates<\/a>will rise as we move deeper into 2022. According to <a title=\"Freddie Mac\" href=\"http:\/\/www.freddiemac.com\/research\/forecast\/index.page\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>Freddie Mac<\/em><\/a>, the average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage is expected to be 3.5% by year\u2019s end. Experts forecast <a title=\"home prices\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mykcm.com\/2021\/12\/15\/what-everyone-wants-to-know-will-home-prices-decline-in-2022\/\">home prices<\/a> will rise as well.<\/p>\n<p>That means the <a title=\"longer you wait\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mykcm.com\/2021\/12\/09\/two-reasons-why-waiting-to-buy-a-home-will-cost-you\/\">longer you wait<\/a>, the more it will cost you to buy a home. Instead, <a title=\"act early\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mykcm.com\/2021\/12\/20\/homebuyers-be-ready-to-act-this-winter\/\">act early<\/a> and purchase your home before rates and prices rise further. Not to mention, the sooner you buy, the sooner you can experience the benefits of continued home price appreciation yourself. Once you have your home, you\u2019ll be able to watch its value rise, giving you confidence that your investment is a sound one.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Buy Now, Move Later<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Keep in mind, with high <a title=\"buyer demand\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mykcm.com\/2021\/12\/16\/homebuyers-are-going-on-a-shopping-spree-this-winter\/\">buyer demand<\/a> like we\u2019re seeing today, you\u2019ll be competing against other potential homebuyers, which means you need to find a way to stand out. One way to accomplish this is to negotiate with sellers and present terms that meet their ideal needs. Danielle Hale, Chief Economist for <em>realtor.com<\/em>, <a title=\"explains\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/now\/realtor-com-forecasts-top-housing-110000093.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">explains<\/a> one lever flexible buyers can pull to entice sellers:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>\u201cFor buyers with more flexible timelines \u2013 such as those making a move from a big city \u2013 <strong>offering a couple extra months on the closing date could sweeten the deal<\/strong> for sellers who also need to buy their next home.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In other words, if you\u2019re eager to purchase a home now before it becomes more costly and you don\u2019t have to move right away, you could extend the date of your closing and provide the seller with the time they need to find their next home. That\u2019s a deal that could benefit both parties and help you stand out from the crowd.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, it\u2019s important to work with a <a title=\"real estate professional\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mykcm.com\/2021\/11\/19\/your-journey-to-homeownership-infographic\/\">real estate professional<\/a> for expert advice on how to make your <a title=\"best offer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mykcm.com\/2021\/09\/27\/if-youre-a-buyer-is-offering-asking-price-enough\/\">best offer<\/a>.
