It goes without saying that we are still in a Buyer's Market here in Tuolumne County, but the "bargains" may not be around forever. Keep in mind that the interest rates have been increasing slightly, and the experts will tell you that when the interest rates begin to climb, the Seller's Market won't be too far behind. So, if you've been putting off that home purchase, thinking that prices will probably go even lower, balance that with the increase in interest rates, and NOW might be just the perfect time to buy.
