WHAT IS PURCHASING POWER

Purchasing power plays a pivotal role in the real estate market, influencing a buyer's ability to secure their dream home. Defined as the financial capacity to buy goods and services, purchasing power is especially significant in the context of real estate, where it determines the type, size, and location of a property one can afford. In this article, we will delve into the dynamics of purchasing power in real estate, exploring its components and offering insights for homebuyers.
Income

A buyer's salary, wages, and any additional sources of income directly impact their ability to afford a home. Obviously the higher your income the more you are able to comfortably afford.

interest rates

When interest rates are low, buyers can afford more expensive homes with the same monthly mortgage payment. Conversely, higher interest rates may limit the affordability of homes, reducing purchasing power.

debt and credit score

A good credit score and manageable debt contribute positively to purchasing power, enabling buyers to qualify for lower interest rates and larger loan amounts.

credit score

A larger down payment can lower the loan amount and monthly mortgage payments, expanding the range of affordable homes.
