The best time to buy a home is when you meet all the qualifications. 
 It doesn't matter if the interest
              rates or housing prices are low if you are not ready. 
 
              "Ready" is not just having a good credit score and enough money for a down payment - you also have to have
              the right mindset. For example, during COVID, interest rates were historically low and I personally told all
              of my family and friends to take advantage of the market and buy a property. 
 
              I explained to them that it wouldn’t matter if they wouldn't be buying their dream home at that time because
              they could sell the property in a couple of years and gain a lot of equity. 
 Many were giving me the
              same
              excuses: 
 “I want to wait to see if the interest rates drop more”, 
 “I’m waiting for the prices to
              drop”, 
              “things are too good to be true, I think the market is going to crash”, 
 or 
 “I’m going to wait a
              little bit
              longer”. 
 
              What ended up happening? 
 Friends that took my advice gained from $80,000 to a crazy $200,000 in equity.
              
              Those that didn’t take my advice ended up regretting that they didn't take action. 
 Likewise, people
              that
              waited 10 to 15 years to buy a home, are finding that instead of buying a house for $400,000, the same house
              now costs $700,000. 
 
              Bottom line, if you have fair or good credit, some money saved and enough income to make your mortgage
              payment, go for it! Don’t make the mistake of waiting until house prices increase to a point that you can't
              afford them.
