When is the Right Time to Buy in 2023?

When is the Right Time to Buy?

Buying a home in any market is a huge decision. Since homes represent the largest single purchase most people will make in their lifetime, we know how important it is for our buyers to feel confident they're buying at the ideal time. With that being said, is there really ever a perfect time to buy?

A recent Forbes article stated, "Trying to predict what might happen next year is not the best homebuying strategy. 'Buyers sitting on the sidelines today in anticipation of lower prices tomorrow may end up disappointed,' says Neda Navab, president of the U.S. region at Compass, a real estate tech company. Navab expects home prices in the hotter markets during the past few years to decrease somewhat, but she doesn’t expect a widespread, national price decline like what followed the 2008 financial crisis. Instead of waiting for much lower prices, experts suggest buying a home based on your budget and needs. If you find a home you love in an area you love, and it also fits your budget, then chances are it might be right for you." 

This is the advice we are giving our homebuyers. The perfect time to buy is when you fall in love with one of our homes, and you have the financial means. Our trusted mortgage coaches will help you determine if it's a smart financial decision for you to make. We want to help you, not sell you. Now could very well not be the right time for you, and that's okay!

Above all, no magic metric or forecast will tell you when it is the perfect time to buy a home. Regardless of home prices or interest rates, the most fantastic time to buy a house is when you are financially prepared. Don't allow friends, family, or internet "experts" to influence your decision. If 2023 is the year you decide you're ready to start living out your dreams, let us help you find your way home!

Everyone who builds with us has a unique story, and we love being a part of it each one. Hear from our happy homeowners why they chose Creative Homes to build their dream home.

We really had a great home building experience with Creative. Our home was completed on schedule and they worked closely with us on every aspect of the project. Our site supervisor was incredible – he was catching things before we even noticed them and had them remedied quickly and to our standards. Overall, we would highly recommend Creative and would build with them again in the future.

The building process was so fun and easy; every week it was so exciting to see progress on our home. The design studio made for an easy experience when picking all the materials for our home. From start to completion, their attention to detail was phenomenal. Creative Homes has a solid team of experts and were always there to answer any question we would have. There is no doubt that I would recommend Creative Homes to anyone building a home.
