Payment Myths First-Time Homebuyers

February 27, 2024 by Danielle Edwards

Dispelling Down Payment Myths for First-Time Homebuyers

Embarking on the journey to purchase your first home can seem overwhelming, particularly when it comes to saving for the various expenses involved, notably the down payment. You might have heard the common belief that you need to set aside 20% of the home’s purchase price for the down payment. However, this isn’t always the case.

Unless stipulated by your loan type or lender, it’s typically not obligatory to provide a 20% down payment. This means you could be closer to achieving your dream of homeownership than you realize.

As stated by The Mortgage Reports:

“While putting down 20% to avoid mortgage insurance is advisable if feasible, it’s a misconception that this is always mandatory. In reality, most individuals opt for a significantly lower down payment.”

According to data from the National Association of Realtors (NAR), the median down payment hasn’t exceeded 20% since 2005. In fact, for all homebuyers today, it averages only 15%, with first-time buyers typically putting down just 8% (see graph below):

a graph of a number of blue squares

Exploring Available Resources to Aid Your Homebuying Journey

In addition to down payment assistance programs, such as the over 2,000 programs offered across the U.S. according to Down Payment Resource, various loan options can provide support. For instance, FHA loans allow down payments as low as 3.5%, while VA and USDA loans have no down payment requirements for eligible applicants.

To uncover what you qualify for, consult with your loan officer or broker. They are knowledgeable about local grants and loan programs that can assist you.

Don’t let the misconception that a 20% down payment is mandatory hinder your progress toward homeownership. Rely on professionals to help you discover resources that can turn your dreams into reality. Waiting until you’ve saved 20% may actually be more costly in the long term. According to U.S. Bank:

“There are numerous reasons why achieving a 20% down payment might not be feasible. For some, delaying until they’ve saved up 20% may incur too much time. While you’re saving for your down payment and paying rent, the price of your future home may increase.”

Home prices are projected to continue rising over the next 5 years, meaning delaying your purchase could result in a higher purchase price. Leveraging available resources to buy now allows you to benefit from future price appreciation, building equity rather than incurring additional costs.

Check out the journey of a first-time homebuyer as they navigate the real estate market with REMAX agent Danielle Edwards, in the insightful TV show segment.

In Conclusion

Remember, you don’t always require a 20% down payment to purchase a home. If you’re considering making a move this year, let’s connect to initiate discussions about your homeownership goals.

South Charlotte Neighborhoods

July 16, 2023 by Danielle Edwards

 SOUTH CHARLOTTE NEIGHBORHOODS

Bordering South Carolina, the South Charlotte area is a bustling suburb for those wanting “newer” homes, mostly built after 1990, top-ranked schools, and plenty of Targets and shopping centers nearby.   With the new Ballantyne area booming with Go Ballantyne and live music at the AMP, this once snubbed area of “Ballantyne” which seemed so far away, is now feeling a lot closer to “things” for the active person.  South Charlotte has many pockets which can be confusing to someone new to our area.

Blakeney, South Charlotte, Waverly, Ballantyne

These areas are bordered by the town of Matthews and Pineville, which will feel just a little more “small” town with cute historic downtowns to explore.

South Charlotte Trails

Four Mile Greenway and shopping

Let’s get back to South Charlotte!  Within this area, you will find the 4-mile creek greenway.  A true destination for someone seeking a beautiful nature trail in the middle of the “suburb.”  You can visit Trader Joe’s, Starbucks, and other small businesses before or after your walk!  Bordering this special gem is a community called TOUCHSTONE VILLAGE; tucked behind Touchstone Village is a 54-home community called Wilshire.  These homes were built in the early 1990s and developed by Crosland.  The Touchstone Village homes will have low ceilings, smaller rooms, and popcorn ceilings–however, most have stunning .50-acre lots!

Four Mile Greenway

Either way, the bonus of living near here is the quick access to the greenway, 485, 51, South Park, and Ballantyne.  It is a true gem for someone who doesn’t want to be FAR OUT from Uptown Charlotte and keep their social calendar open to options to get to so many places in “15 minutes easily.”

This explores the charm of a two-story house in Charlotte, certainly highlighting its architectural beauty, functional advantages, and the sense of community it fosters.

WILSHIRE TOUCHSTONE DETAILS

Tucked away in TOUCHSTONE VILLAGE, it is certainly an Excellent South Charlotte home with a backdoor entrance to the 4-mile creek greenway! Beautiful open floor plan, also with plenty of entertainment space and lots of flexibility on the main level. Statement staircase with iron balusters and crown molding will indeed impress! You will particularly gravitate outdoors to your screened porch, which feels like you are in a tree house. Also, it has a great grilling area and your own private stone pathway down to access the greenway, Starbucks, or Trader Joe’s.

 

This true 4-bedroom home gives you an explicitly oversized Primary bedroom, oversized closet, and spacious, elegant bathroom. The Primary bath has been updated with a glass-enclosed shower, high-end cabinetry, and at last, Granite countertops. Additionally, The guest bath has dual sinks, tile, and granite!

Additionally, this is  Zoned New High School for 2024.

One of the most striking features of Wilshire is its picturesque streets lined with magnificent trees, creating a serene atmosphere that provides an escape from the urban hustle. The neighborhood’s well-planned layout showcases a harmonious mix of historic homes and contemporary residences, showcasing the seamless coexistence of the past and the present. Wilshire is a testament to preserving the city’s architectural heritage, with many homes reflecting the classic southern charm that has endured through the years.

Wilshire Location and access to everything Charlotte

For those seeking entertainment and cultural enrichment, Wilshire doesn’t disappoint. Its proximity to downtown Charlotte allows easy access to an array of restaurants, theaters, art galleries, and shopping centers. However, the neighborhood itself has a distinct charm, with its unique boutiques and locally-owned businesses contributing to a thriving local economy.

Wilshire embodies the perfect balance between suburban tranquility and urban convenience.

As the city of Charlotte continues to grow, Wilshire has managed to retain its identity and resist the overwhelming waves of gentrification. This speaks to the determination and dedication of its residents, who have worked tirelessly to preserve their neighborhood’s character while embracing positive change.

Small Communities in bustling Metropolis

In conclusion, Wilshire, Charlotte, is a testament to the allure of small communities within a bustling metropolis. Its rich history, architectural beauty, and close-knit community make it a place like no other. As the city continues to evolve, Wilshire remains a beacon of hope—a place where the past and present intermingle gracefully and where the warmth of community envelops all who are fortunate enough to call it home.

Charlote Real Estate Market Forecast 2023

January 28, 2023 by Danielle Edwards

Charlotte Real Estate Market Forecast

2023-2022 home sales across the Charlotte region trend back to 2019 levels.

Article by Canopy Realtor Association shared by Danielle Edwards

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — At the end of 2022, existing-home sales across the 16-county Charlotte region declined 15.3 percent year-over-year, as 50,286 homes sold across the region last year. The region had approximately 9,300 more home sales in 2021 than in 2022, which included 12 consecutive months of year-over-year declines. 2022’s sales were on par with sales at the end of 2019, which was a healthier year of sales, due to the overall pace of the market and amount of inventory. There were 3,0

65 closed sales during the month of December 2022 throughout the region, which is down 37.7 percent year-over-year. Sales included in this report, come from Canopy MLS and include single-family and condo-townhome data only, for the 16-county region.

A gauge of buyer interest, pending contracts, fell throughout the year and totaled 47,477 houses under contract, a 20.5 percent decline from contract activity in 2021.. In part because the FED increased interest rates in response to inflationary pressure during 2022, buyers withdrew from the market. Contract activity reached a low point in December with 2,472 homes signing contracts, a decline of 32.4 percent from the previous year. Contract activity is typically a forward-looking indicator and a good predictor of future sales.

 

“Our region has experienced a tremendous amount of growth over the last year, even though year-over-year sales activity didn’t reach the level of activity we saw during the height of the pandemic,” said Tiffany Johannes, the 2023 president of Canopy Realtor® Association/Canopy MLS and Realtor®/Broker-In-Charge with RE/MAX Executive Ballantyne. We observed a return to a relatively healthier timing and pace of activity during most of last year and will continue to do so because 2021 was an outlier and an unhealthy market. If there’s any good news, it’s that the slower pace of sales should let inventory increase and possibly provide purchasers more options later this spring.

Year-end statistics reveal that with 57,973 residences posted during the year, new listing activity—which is a proxy for seller activity—was down 10% from 2021. During the month of December sellers listed 2,418 homes for sale, a 31.3 percent year-over-year decline. As buyers pulled back last year, seller activity also declined.

 

 

Inventory had 6,479 homes posted for sale as of report time on January 5, 2023. A 54 percent increase from the 4,206 homes for sale at the same time last year. Months of supply rose 100% to 1.6 months, indicating that the area is still in a seller’s market. That is far from being balanced at six months of supply. Prices continued to rise year-over-year in December.

The average sales price was $444,600 for the entire year. It was up 14.9% from the previous year, and the median sales price was $379,890. The initial list price to sales price ratio rose to 99.7%. As a result of sellers continuing to be able to sell their houses for virtually their full asking price. Only for the month of December, the median sales price ($373,625) and average sales price ($436,920). Then both grew by 6.8 and 7.3 percent over the prior year. The percentage of original list price to sales price in December dropped further, to 94.7 percent.

The property market’s slowing down is just one of many indicators that point to a recession this year. This is according to many experts, Johannes added. But buyers need to understand that a recession doesn’t necessarily equate to home prices falling. Rates are anticipated to fall further. As inflation continues to reduce, even if the era of rates of 3% is probably over. Housing would be crucial to an economic recovery, according to our current outlook, and any recession would be minor.

Time on market across the region showed homes sold quickly throughout 2022, leaving buyers little time for negotiation.  List to close averaged 77 days last year compared to 73 days in 2021. The metric that accrues for “Active” and “Under-contract-show” statuses, showed homes averaged 22 days on market in 2022. It was compared to 19 days on market in 2021.  However, on December, List to Close increased from 75 days in 2021 to 99 days in 2022. And while days on market in December, increased from 20 days in 2021 to 41 days in 2022.

Charlotte Real Estate Agent Danielle Edwards

“Charlotte, NC and the Carolinas in general rank among the top 5 States where people are moving to. Not only that many experts rank Charlotte, NC as the market to watch in 2023. Charlotte Real Estate Agent, Danielle Edwards with RE/MAX EXECUTIVE has seen buyers that have been on the sidelines starting to resurface. It is really hard to tell what our market is like. This is because like most areas we experience a seasonal slow down this time of year.
2021 was an unhealthy market, and now it is about re-educating sellers on how to price their home properly, and education buyers on ways to still win.

When I meet with new buyers I don’t just meet them at a house. I sit with them in my office and we go over their wants and needs, the different areas, and how to strategize a game plan that will have their house search here in Charlotte, NC be affective.”

December 14, 2022 by Danielle Edwards

How to Give Back This Holiday Season in Charlotte, NC

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! The city is lit, the food is decadent, and the parties are fun. But we all know what’s important—enjoying quality time with the people you cherish and helping your community by giving your time, gifts, or donations to those in need. As it is said, it is better to give than receive. And there’s no better time to apply that mantra than during the holiday season. Here’s a list of nonprofits you can support and ideas on how to give back this holiday season in Charlotte, NC.

The Salvation Army

The Salvation Army’s Angel Tree program helps provide Christmas gifts for children in need. You can choose a gift from the Angel Tree registry through a partnership with Walmart and drop off the gift at their Christmas Center located at 2708 Yorkmont Road, Charlotte, NC 28208. Distribution starts on December 16th. And donations are always accepted in lieu of gifts.

The CMPD Explorers

The CMPD Explorers Christmas Project partners with the Salvation Army Christmas Assistance Program to provide Christmas presents for hundreds of children in the Charlotte area. They accept toy donations for children under 14 years old at any Charlotte Fire Station or CMPD office. You can also set up a toy drive at your business, school, or church. Of course, donations are always accepted as well!

Toys for Tots

Toys for Tots makes a huge impact in Charlotte. Last year, they distributed 19,796 toys to children in need. You can request a Toys for Tots box to put in the lobby at your business, school, or church. Or you can find a list of public boxes to donate toys here.

Charlotte Rescue Mission

Charlotte Rescue Mission. This faith-based organization is dedicated to helping people and families impacted by addiction. During the holiday season, Charlotte Rescue Mission accepts money, food, clothes, and medicine donations. They also accept notes of hope and encouragement.

Thompson Child & Family Focus

Thompson Child & Family Focus make the holidays magical for almost 800 children by stuffing their stockings and their hearts. Secret Santa wish lists are available through a Child’s Place, Friends of the Children, Wraparound, and Family partners.

A Roof Above

A Roof Above serves the housing-insecure families of Charlotte. They depend on community donations to help get them through the winter comfortably. They also host a collection drive during the holiday season or you can purchase items from their Amazon Wishlist.

The Harvest Center

The Harvest Center of Charlotte invites families to assist with meal preparation and serving local Charlotteans in need. They encourage you to also sit down, eat and socialize with those you serve to build new friendships and connections. They also welcome volunteers to help with move-in preparations and campus beautification.

Neighborhood Cookie and Hot Cocoa Stand

And, one of my favorites, if you have a little entrepreneurial spirit at home, set up your own cookie and hot cocoa stand with proceeds going to your favorite local charity!
