@theurbanlender: 7% mortgage rates are back, and investors are paying attention. We briefly saw rates reach the 7% range in 2024 and again in 2025. The highest point came in 2023, when 30 year fixed mortgage rates climbed into the mid 7% range. Higher rates often cause buyers to pause, which can mean fewer people competing for the same home. When demand slows, sellers may be more open to price reductions, closing cost credits, repair requests, rate buydowns, and other concessions. That can create opportunity for investors who are prepared. The goal is not to buy a property just because rates are high. It is to find a deal that works at today’s payment, purchase at the right price, negotiate favorable terms, and keep refinancing as a future option IF rates come down. #RealEstateInvesting #InvestmentProperty #MortgageRates #firsttimehomebuyer #mortgagetips

yes you can talk the sellers down because they want to sell their house. we are getting a 4 bedroom 1.5 bath 1800 sq ft ranch for 210k when that house normally would go to 250k without updates. once we do some work it will be 300k

It’s not about what you can afford it’s about what you can sustain. When I got my first home I could easily afford $4000 a month. Did I get that, no. I got a house in which they payment was $1300 in case I couldn’t work anymore or had to work for less. There’s no wiggle room in this market.

$400k home at 2.5% is a lot different than $400k at 7% rates. The home price must adjust back to match the high rates.

Yes on the surface it’s only a $100 difference but over the course of 30 years that’s $36,000. That same $100 can be invested into the S&P 500 for 30 years is over $226,000.

I bought my home in 2022 at 6.125%. I’m gonna have it paid off in three years. After that, I plan on never taking out another mortgage. I’ll buy properties in cash. It’ll take longer, but at least I’m in complete control.

Hyper-focused on the interest rate but loan type, insurance policy and property taxes can all affect the monthly not just as much. It’s about education

thats not the right way to think about it. 7% is the rate you get if you have perfect credit. most people do not have perfect credit which means for most people the rates are 8-13%
