Keep in mind that your first home doesn’t have to be your forever home.
Keep in mind that your first home doesn’t have to be your forever home. Because of high prices, your ideal home may be out of reach. Be open to adjusting your expectations regarding location, size, and condition. Additionally, if mortgage rates are expected to decrease, it might be worth waiting later into the year to lock in a lower rate, but you should keep in mind that this comes with some risk. Home prices could rise further.
