Remember that the movement of interest rates by as little as ¼% can result in a monthly payment fluctuation of $100 or more depending on your loan amount.  So waiting for lower interest rates is probably not going to happen.  Buying a home now while the rates are at historic lows, property prices beginning to rise, and inventory at an all time high . . . NOW is your best bet to capitalize on a golden opportunity.  Remember, there’s never a bad time to buy, but there’s better.  That time is NOW, particularly when you factor in the recently extended and expanded tax credit . . . sending CASH back to home buyers.  By the way, it’s taking about 6 weeks for Uncle Sam to process your tax credit and issue a check to you.
