When things look bleak, smart people with foresight look for bargains. This is true in financial and commodities markets but most of all real estate. The real estate market locally had shown some signs of regaining momentum several months ago, but just as the national scene have been disappointing in the deepening recession, home prices have dropped again in the Nashville and broader Tennessee markets.

The question on many potential buyers’ minds is “How will I know when prices have hit bottom, and if it’s time to make a move?” The answer in real estate is as hard to predict as the bottom of the stock market is to predict. The savvy investor or buyer of real estate looks to other factors that are perhaps of greater importance than the buyer may first recognize.

What are these factors, and how should they be considered? Well, consider the effects of mortgage interest rates on monthly costs. Nashville home loan rates are incredibly low at present, lower than almost anyone could have ever predicted. Is this a huge factor? In the lifetimes of most of us, the national and Nashville home loan rates are at or near lifetime lows. Cheaper loans mean cheaper housing costs. When housing prices are also low, these are the first two reasons to look into the market. In Nashville, there is a fine convergence of low sales prices and low Nashville home loan rates.

But now there is a third component of low cost real estate ownership. It is no secret to anyone that we are in a worldwide recession. In this country, an economic stimulus plan is the chosen path to try to soften the effects of the deepening recession. Since the recession began in the housing market, the President and Congress have a common interest in ending the recessionary pressures in the markets in which they were born. Therefore, Congress is set to pass a stimulus law that will provide tax credits (up to $8,000!) to first time homebuyers in 2009.
