Quotes:
“Sellers have already absorbed a lot of the affordability issues with rates going from 3 to a little over 7%... I think you’re starting to see sellers come back to a price point where their home is going to sell.” - Daniel Halverson
"The reality is the thought process of buying a home now may be negotiating better terms than you would in the future and then refinancing that loan." - Daniel Halverson
“Instead of thinking about how much lower you can get the price, let’s consider how much of a concession you can get that can be applied toward lowering the interest rate.” - Daniel Halverson
