Reason’s Why It’s a Good Time to Buy
The housing market is looking healthier. Here are a few reasons why now is the time to jump into the market.
• There is a large inventory of available homes for sale at reasonable prices
• Interest rates are at near record lows, which will save you thousands of dollars over the life of the home loan
• If you are a first-time home buyer, a three-year forgivable tax credit can reduce your 2009 income tax bill by up to $8000, but expires on November 30, 2009
• For low-to moderate-income homebuyers, five-year forgivable grants of up to $4000 may be available to assist with the down-payment and closing costs
• When the economy improves and home values go up (and they will) your equity goes up, rather than your landlord’s equity
• You can itemize your deductions on your federal tax return and claim your interest payments, property taxes, and mortgage insurance, as well as deduct a portion of your property taxes on your state tax return.
• With a fixed-rate mortgage, your monthly payment (principal and interest) stays the same – while, even with normal inflation, everything else, including rent, goes upward.
• There is something comforting in the notion that your home is your own. Home ownership requires responsibility, but offers much greater flexibility.

It may be difficult to qualify for a home mortgage loan. As a buyer, you may find the perfect home, but finding the perfect financing might become elusive. After you complete the application process, your lender may turn you down, which is an upsetting development for any prospective homebuyer. What can be done to remedy such a setback?
The answer depends on why you were turned down. If your income is too low to satisfy one mortgage company, there might be another company with more liberal qualifying guidelines. If you have had credit problems, some lenders may be more willing than others to help you clear them up in a manner that satisfies their underwriters. If your loan runs into problems, sit down with the loan officer and your real estate agent to investigate the possibility of using a different lender. The first company may be able to "assign" the package to a competitor, enabling you to use your same credit report and appraisal. You will need the cooperation of your sellers, too.
While loan rejections are disappointing, they can be resolved.
