The number of new listings on the market is relatively steady compared to this time last year. Interest rates continue to be low, but are starting to creep up ever so slightly. The combination of these make it a great time to buy and a great time to sell, as it costs less to buy and there is limited inventory on the market. If you aren't interested in buying or selling, now would be the time to consider refinancing.
Here are some quick statistics for Osceola, Polk, and Orange counties.
