Why You Don’t Need To Be Afraid of Today’s Mortgage Rates

Posted by Dan Kennedy on November 12th, 2025

Mortgage rates might feel intimidating, but waiting for the “perfect” drop could end up costing you more later.

Here’s why:
Once rates dip into the 5-point-something “sweet spot,” thousands of buyers will jump back in—driving prices higher and reducing your buying power. And the difference between today’s average rate (around 6.2%) and 5.99% on a $400,000 loan is only about $50 a month—less than many people spend on coffee or takeout.

The upside:
Right now, you have more homes to choose from, stronger negotiation power, and less competition. Acting before the next buyer surge could help you secure a better deal overall.

If today’s rates make you pause, remember—waiting could cost you. Once rates fall below 6%, more buyers and higher prices…

Rising Inventory Makes This Spring Your Best Buying Opportunity

Posted by Dan Kennedy on March 20th, 2025

Two reasons this spring might finally be your time to buy:

1. More Homes, More Options

The number of homes for sale last month reached its highest level in five years—27.5% higher than last year. Experts expect this trend to continue, making it easier to find a home that fits your needs.

 

2. Sellers Are Cutting Prices

With more competition, some homes are staying on the market longer, pushing sellers to lower their prices. The number of price reductions is rising, bringing pricing closer to pre-pandemic levels.

This shift gives you stronger negotiating power—whether on price, closing costs, or repairs. While not every seller will adjust their price, many are more open to negotiations, giving you more control in the buying…

Spring Market is Around the Corner – Are You Ready?

Posted by Dan Kennedy on February 21st, 2025

The spring selling season is the 
busiest time in real estate,
and now is the time to prepare! 

-----

 

 

Check Your Credit: Credit repair can take as little as three months. Paying down credit card balances under 30% utilization (10% is even better!) and keeping accounts open can improve your score.
Build Credit Wisely: If you don’t have credit yet, consider opening a card with a major bank – but avoid retail or gas cards, which lenders may not view as favorably.
Know Your Leverage: Higher mortgage rates mean more negotiating power for buyers. Price cuts are happening, and motivated sellers are making deals! 

 

 

 

Price Strategically: With buyers gaining more negotiating power, setting the right…

Utah Market Update 2020

Posted by Dan Kennedy on April 17th, 2020

 A lot of people are wondering how the coronavirus situation is impacting the real estate market and their home values. Utah and Salt Lake counties saw a 26% decrease in homes sold this past week over the previous week. This is likely due the fact that all the shutdowns associated with Covid-19 happened 35 days ago in the 2nd week of March. The world was in a panic and very few deals got put together during that period. New listings are steady and so are the number of deals going under contract, although both these figures are well below where they should be.

What does all this mean? It means that if you're a buyer, the timing couldn't be any better to get out there and snag a deal. The pendulum is shifting away from white hot seller's market. Now…
