The question that seems to be on everyone’s mind is “will home prices continue to rise?” 👀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Inflation, high mortgage rates, and record-high home prices seem to be making it harder and harder to afford a home, and it doesn't seem to be changing anytime soon. Economists at Fannie Mae are saying that prices on average are 16% higher than they were a year ago. 🤯
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
MBA economists are expecting home pricing gains in the foreseeable future with a 9.8% yearly increase in prices, compared to 2021. 📊

Have investment properties been on your mind? Here are my top 3 mistakes to steer clear of! 👇
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✅ Not setting aside at least 2-3% of the property value each year to account for maintenance costs.
✅ Not working with a real estate agent: don’t underestimate the work that goes into a real estate deal!
✅ Not running the numbers first: it is crucial to do a cash flow calculation to determine the ROI for the property
