Now is a great time to take out a new home loan because mortgage rates continue to hover near historic lows. As a result, many homeowners are refinancing to a lower rate. This is also the perfect time to move because homeowners can take out a new home loan with a lower interest rate. Mortgage rates will not remain at historic lows forever and have already begun to rise slowly this year. Homeowners should sell now and take out a new home loan before they rise too much.
Homeowners Can Take Advantage Of A Bidding War
Because the real estate market is so competitive right now, homeowners might be able to take advantage of a bidding war. With surveys showing that homeowners are getting more offers on their homes than ever before, this is an opportunity for homeowners to drive up the sale price.
Homeowners Can Speed Through The Closing Process
While many homeowners get frustrated about the time it takes to close a sale, home sales are closing faster than they ever have in the past. The number of all-cash sales is going up as well, which is also an opportunity for homeowners to close quickly. Anyone who is looking for a quick closing process should consider selling in the current market.
Homeowners Can Sell Without Updating The Home
Finally, this is also a great time for homeowners to sell because they might be able to sell their homes without updating anything. Instead of having to worry about home upgrades and cosmetic changes, homeowners might be able to get great value for the home as-is. This opportunity might not come along again for decades, so now is a great time to sell.

After seventeen years in the traditional mortgage banking world Babak finally transformed this vision into his own practice in 2002 when he formed Charter Pacific Lending Corp, a mortgage company that has provided over $900 Million in residential real estate loans throughout Southern California. Babak and his team do things a little differently than other mortgage providers. They work as financial advisors, because they have come to realize that a mortgage is a very powerful financial tool. And just like any other financial tool, it should be managed as part of the overall financial management plan to reach every home owner’s long and short-term financial goals much faster.
