4 Reasons Why Fall Is A Great Time to Buy A Home!

Here are four great reasons to consider buying a home today instead of waiting.

1. Prices Will Continue to Rise

CoreLogic’s latest Home Price Insights report reveals that home prices have appreciated by 6.2% over the last 12 months. The same report predicts that prices will continue to increase at a rate of 5.1% over the next year.

Home values will continue to appreciate for years. Waiting no longer makes sense.

2. Mortgage Interest Rates Are Projected to Increase

Freddie Mac’s Primary Mortgage Market Survey shows that interest rates for a 30-year mortgage have already increased by half of a percentage point, to around 4.5% in 2018. Most experts predict that rates will rise over the next 12 months. The Mortgage Bankers Association, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and the National Association of Realtors are in unison, projecting that rates will increase by half a percentage point to around 5.1% by this time next year.

An increase in rates will impact your monthly mortgage payment. A year from now, your housing expense will increase if a mortgage is necessary to buy your next home.

3. Either Way, You Are Paying a Mortgage

There are some renters who have not yet purchased homes because they are uncomfortable taking on the obligation of a mortgage. Everyone should realize that unless you are living with your parents rent-free, you are paying a mortgage – either yours or your landlord’s.

As an owner, your mortgage payment is a form of ‘forced savings’ that allows you to build equity in your home which you can then tap into later in life. As a renter, you guarantee your landlord is the person building that equity.

Are you ready to put your housing cost to work for you?

4. It’s Time to Move on with Your Life

The ‘cost’ of a home is determined by two major components: the price of the home and the current mortgage rate. It appears that both are on the rise.

But what if they weren’t? Would you wait?

Look at the actual reason you are buying and decide if it is worth waiting. Whether you want to have a great place for your children to grow up, you want your family to be safer, or you just want to have control over renovations, maybe now is the time to buy.

If the right thing for you and your family is to purchase a home this year, buying sooner rather than later could lead to substantial savings.

2nd Quarter closed sales for New Jersey

PrimeWork, looking beyond cities, opens co-working space in Somerset — with plans for more in N.J.

PrimeWork — or, what Avi Orlansky said he hopes will become the premier shared workspace of New Jersey — opened its first location in the state Tuesday in Somerset.

That’s right, a co-working space in the suburbs.

Some people are unwilling or unable to travel into the city for work find suburban offices much more preferable.

“If we can provide the same level of services and amenities closer to home at a reasonable price, that’s a no-brainer.”

Orlansky said PrimeWork will offer short-term, all-inclusive workspace solutions for growing businesses, including amenities such as Wi-Fi, conference space, parking, printer and mail services, and a fully-stocked kitchen, among other things

Orlansky, the founder and CEO of the company, said New Jersey is ready for this type of space.

“Today, there are more entrepreneurs than ever before, and New Jersey can become a huge hub for startups if we were to just provide the right space and support for them,” he said.

In the coming weeks, he will open locations in Jersey City (600 Pavonia Ave.) and Parsippany (199 Pomeroy Road) as well as one in Brooklyn.

“After building out my first space, I realized that, if you want to do this properly, you need to be able to invest not only money, but also time, and scale quickly,” Orlansky said.

“By understanding their goals and offering our expertise wherever warranted, as well as by securing speakers and offering classes for current and prospective tenants, we not only will differentiate ourselves in the market, but also create partners in that way,” he said. “If they are building their businesses, so will we, too, grow.”

Orlansky said he hopes to build at least 15 locations in New Jersey within five years before replicating the PrimeWork model in suburbs elsewhere, such as outside of Los Angeles or Chicago.

For now, though, he said he is entirely focused on New Jersey.

“I want PrimeWork to become the premier co-working company in this state, both in name recognition and in its number of locations,” he said.
