Sellers Have an Opportunity with Today\u2019s Home Prices<\/p><\/div>\n

As mortgage rates<\/a> started to rise this year, many homeowners began to wonder if the value of their homes would fall. Here\u2019s the good news. Historically, when mortgage rates rise by a percentage point or more, home values continue to appreciate<\/a>. The latest data on home prices seems to confirm that trend.<\/p>\n

According to data<\/a> from CoreLogic<\/em>, home price appreciation has been re-accelerating since November. The graph below shows this increase in home price appreciation in green:<\/p>\n

Price Appreciation is Accelerating<\/p><\/div>\n

This is largely due to an ongoing imbalance in supply and demand<\/a>. Specifically, housing supply<\/a> is still low, and demand is high. As mortgage rates started to rise this year, many homebuyers rushed to make their purchases before those rates could climb higher. The increased competition drove home prices up even more. Selma Hepp, Deputy Chief Economist at CoreLogic<\/em>, explains<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\u201cHome price growth continued to gain speed in early spring, as eager buyers tried to get in front of the mortgage rate surge.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And experts say prices are forecast<\/a> to continue appreciating, just at a more moderate pace moving forward. A recent article from Fortune<\/em> says<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\u201c. . . the swift move up in mortgage rates . . . doesn\u2019t mean home prices are about to crash. In fact, every major real estate firm with a publicly released forecast model . . . still predicts home prices will climb further this year<\/strong>.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

What This Means for You<\/strong><\/h4>\n

If you\u2019re thinking about selling your house<\/a>, you should know you have a great opportunity to list your home and capitalize on today\u2019s home price appreciation<\/a>. As prices rise, so does the value of your home, which gives your equity<\/a> a big boost.<\/p>\n

When you sell<\/a>, you can use that equity<\/a> toward the purchase of your next home. And at today\u2019s record-level of appreciation, that equity may be enough to cover some (if not all) of your down payment<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Bottom Line<\/strong><\/h3>\n

History shows rising mortgage rates have not had a negative impact on home prices. Now is still a great time to sell your house thanks to ongoing price appreciation.
