Is it a good time to buy a house in Tampa FL?
Of course there is not a simple black and white answer, that would be too easy. Withe the covid-19 virus still rearing its ugly head the expectation would be for home prices to begin to drop. However that has not been the case so far.
Listing inventory is down compared to this time last year and has caused a pike in home prices with competing offers. Interest rates are still at an all time low with no real signs of increasing.
Buying sooner than later could be the wise decision!
