There’s been some concern lately that the housing market is headed for a crash. And given some of the affordability challenges in the housing market, along with a lot of recession talk in the media, it’s easy enough to understand why that worry has come up.
But the data clearly shows today’s market is very different than it was before the housing crash in 2008. Rest assured, this isn’t a repeat of what happened back then. Here’s why.

The church is not a building. It's a group of people who come together to be changed in order to make a difference in the community. Before we try to make a difference in the lives of other people we need to ask ourselves, "Who am I?" Are you simply your successes or failures, your job, the stuff you own, your season of life, or any other label? The way we see ourselves changes the way we see others. Who are you? What gets in the way of you knowing who you really are? And, what difference does it all make as you live to impact others? God has given each of us the gift of our true self. Now it's time to unwrap it!

Three Things Buyers Can Do in Today’s Housing Market
It’s clear the 2022 housing market has been defined by rising mortgage rates. With rates on the rise, it’s also become more costly to purchase a home. According to the National Association of Realtors (NAR):
“Compared to one year ago, the monthly mortgage payment rose to $1,944 from $1,265, an increase of 53.7%.”
If you’re thinking of buying a home or have been trying to recently, that’s a big increase in a monthly mortgage payment – and it may be causing you to press pause on your plans. This jump is making homes less affordable, especially compared to the last two years when mortgage rates were at historic lows.
The good news is you can navigate today’s housing market and this rising rate environment with a few simple tips. Here are three things you may want to consider to help make your homeownership goals a reality.
Read on for the 3 things.
