I have updated the market summary for Valley Lakes & Prairie Pointe subdivisions in Round Lake.  The news is not great for those that bought when prices were high.  Many of the neighbors have landed on hard times and there have been several short sales and foreclosures. On the other hand it is a buyers paradise!  Newer homes for little money, most in very good condition.  If you are interesting in buying or sell in any part of Round Lake email or call me at marilyn@northernillinoishomes or call 847.668.7630.  Also you can log into our website www.northernillinoishomes.com .   07/03/2011

When it comes to Round Lake real estate the time to buy could be now. A recent headline from Fortune Magazine reads "Real estate: It's time to buy again", and the general sentiment seems to be ringing true in markets across the nation. What makes buying Round Lake real estate a wise decision? Mortgage rates will not remain low forever and are actually increasing slightly, having risen by nearly 3/4 of a point over the past six months. A rise in rates can alter the overall cost of a home significantly. Mortgages of the future are a bit unclear at the moment. There is a lot of ongoing debate about what the government's role will be in the mortgage industry, as well as the possible elimination of the 30 year mortgage. Mortgage requirements may get much stricter. Possible changes to the ... 04/17/2011

So the other day I was reading about more changes that are coming to the world of buying and selling a home.  Every day we hear in the news that the mortgage rates are rising and they've risen in the past few months.  Next we hear that the 30 year mortgage could be a thing of the past if Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are eliminated.  Last but not least it will be harder to obtain a mortgage.  Higher FICO score will be required, debt ratio will change, and down payment requirements could climb to 20%.  I guess what is important for the consumer is if they are thinking about buying and are sitting on the fence NOW is the time to buy because if they wait it will not only cost more but may be harder to get their purchase financed.  04/15/2011
