Rents Rise as Rental Vacancies Decline

As rental vacancies decline, rents rise. It’s a simple matter of supply and demand. Rising rent prices make rental properties more lucrative to investors who then flock to purchase homes and get in on the action. As a result, first time homebuyers looking to take advantage of low rates and low home prices will face stiff competition from investors.

All that being said – don’t let yourself become discouraged! Now is still the best time to purchase your first home. 15-year and 30-year mortgage rates are at all time record lows. Consult a licensed mortgage loan professional to get
