Why LBI Interest Rates Fuel the LBI Real Estate Market

Interest rates will vary depending on the borrower, the type of loan, and the bank, but we have steadily been seeing mortgage interest rates in the LBI real estate market well under 3%. With these low rates, buying a home on Long Beach Island can make a lot more sense. Even with rising prices, many buyers are finding their monthly payments to be very manageable. The low cost of borrowing money has also opened out the investment market. Buyers can purchase a home and rent it out in the active LBI rental market. With the cost of borrowing money so low, the returns on these rental investment properties have increased significantly. Additionally, with money being so cheap to borrow, many buyers in the LBI real estate market are opting to borrow money and leave their personal funds invested elsewhere, like the stock market. By keeping money “working” in another investment, the cost of owning a home on Long Beach Island has actually dropped in many cases…and it is all thanks to low interest rates on an LBI mortgage.

Buying a home is a meaningful investment, and you owe it to yourself to explore all options. Generally speaking, the cost of borrowing money is very low right now, but not all borrowers will qualify for a loan to purchase a home on Long Beach Island. Additionally, some loans, for example, an investment loan, will usually carry a higher interest rate. All buyers in the LBI real estate market that are considering financing should discuss their options with a lender to see what makes the most sense for them.
