Lansing Michigan Real Estate News, Events & Market Updates Come Fast These Days. Keeping up with the real estate market is a full time job plus some, with all the changes comingLoans down the pike. Here’s a sample below from Realtor.org of news that comes across my iPhone and computer on a pretty consistent basis. In addition to national news, events, and new systems being introduced it is a must for REALTORS today, to stay on top of all these important issues.

Delinquent Mortgages Reach Record Levels
The percentage of mortgages in some state of foreclosure has hit a new high, but housing experts still see brighter days ahead.

Housing at Its Most Affordable in Years
The typical U.S. family could afford more than two-thirds of all homes sold during the third quarter of this year.

15-Year Rate Hits Record Low
The average rate for 15-year mortgages dipped to a new bottom this week, and the 30-year rate approached its record low as well.

Lansing, Michigan real estate news, events, and changes naturally comes first over national news, however most of this trickles down to the local level. A good example of that would be the Home Buyer Tax Credit that was extended recently. FHA loan limits being expanded, and recent changes in the appraisal process for loans.

Marketing properties, home selection and financing are just a few of the skills today’s consumer looks for when they select a real estate professional. If you have questions about buying, selling, or investing in the Greater Lansing real estate market, feel free to contact me.
