The real estate market has been an insanely confusing and ever changing situation over the last few years. The national media says one thing but is that true for each local market? I'm not sure it is. Today, we get to talk with my preferred mortgage lender Patrick O'Connor of Guaranteed Rate. Patrick has been a lender for 20 years and has likely seen it all. In 2005 he moved to Raleigh from Virginia as a single, 20 something and after meeting and falling in love with his now wife...and also the Carolina Hurricanes, he's never looked back and is proud to call the Triangle his home.
In this episode we talk more about the actual truth of the local Raleigh market than I have ever discussed on here before. We get into housing inventory, buyer and seller mindset, mortgage financing options and more...but we also talk about golf, hockey and beer to make it slightly less boring to anybody that doesn't care about the real estate market. But if you're following this podcast you probably care a little bit at least about the Raleigh market.
Give the episode a good listen, be sure to connect with Patrick at: IG: @poconnor9, on FB: @PatrickO'Connor and on LinkedIn: Patrick O'Connor
And be sure to go visit some of his favorite places around the Triangle to get a really good feeling of his Raleigh...and then make it your Raleigh.
