School is back in session and I am a little sad to see summer come to a close. However, I will not be sad to see these record-high temperatures go! I am longing for the cool mornings that accompany the beginning of fall. I’ve even spotted a leaf or two starting to change color already! And how about Georgia football starting off with a bang! I'm holding strong, but I know a pumpkin spice latte is in the near future for me. Oh and maybe a pumpkin loaf from Dilettos Bakery.

Ok, you know what...maybe I'm not that sad.

Welcome September! - Dani

How's the market? In one word, “steady.” The market isn't roaring the way it was a year ago, but with increased interest rates, that is expected. The one thing that hasn't changed is prices. It seems all the experts agree and data reflects that due to a lack of inventory, sales prices are holding strong. The one thing we are seeing is longer days on the market. My prediction, in the next year we will see prices hold strong and demand stay high. When rates drop back into the 5-6% range we will see bidding wars again. So, buy today! Date the rate and refinance when they drop. Don't sit on the fence waiting or it will cost you major equity you could be acquiring.
