Infographic:
Key terms in today’s housing market

July 23, 2021

The language of buying and selling a home may sound scary at first, but knowing how key terms relate to today’s market can help you. For example, current low mortgage rates and higher wages positively impact affordability for buyers, while home price appreciation continues to grow home equity, which sellers can use to fuel a move up.

Terms like appraisal (what lenders rely on to validate a home’s value) and contingencies (which buyers can minimize to make their offer stand out) directly impact the transaction.

TESTIMONIALS

"I would highly recommend Russ Fortuno. He is professional, knows the area and market well, and takes care of all the details. Russ helped us sell our house quickly. He responds quickly to questions or concerns. He was great to work with."
- Jane M., Quail Creek
"Russ did a great job on taking us through the process of purchasing our new home. He is an excellent Realtor who smoothly managed our purchasing requests with fellow agents. He knows what needs to be done and worked hard to keep the process on track. He also used his list of resources to schedule home and pool inspections in a timely manner. Russ also walked us through the more challenging action of acquiring the sellers solar panel loan; a potentially lengthy process. Also, Russ was easy to contact and always got back to us immediately with accurate answers to our questions. His use of technology to officially sign documents was extremely helpful. Based upon our statement of needs, Russ was able to take us to homes that we felt would work well for us. My wife and I both highly recommend Russ Fortuno as an agent for any home buyer in the Green Valley and Quail Creek area."
- Wayne D., Quail Creek
"Professional in every way. Russ was great to work with. He returned all my inquiries swiftly and promptly and was with me every step of the way. He was a pleasure to work with and I would recommend him without question."
- Jeff P., Quail Creek
