Slowing New Home Construction? Not in Colorado!

Image
Although more home buyers eagerly seeking the dwellings of their dreams, fewer new homes are in bloom this summer. In not-so-promising signs for the housing market, permits to build new abodes, housing starts, and the number of new homes completed dipped in April from the previous month, according to the seasonally adjusted numbers in the latest residential sales report. The numbers of new permits, housing starts and finished homes hitting the market were all up year-over-year in April, according to the report.

Getting preapproved is a smart move, especially in a seller's market characterized by tight inventories and, in some regions, bidding wars. Having a lender's letter in hand signals to sellers that you're a legit buyer whose offer merits serious consideration. Even so, a preapproval letter is just a conditional commitment.
