| Answers to Common Questions about Home Buying |
| |
Find the answer to your home buying questions:
Q: Shouldn’t I wait until home prices go even lower to buy?
A: No. Just as no one can accurately predict the peaks and valleys of the stock market (name one person who sold their tech portfolio in April of 2000), the same holds true for housing. If you wait for what you think is the absolute best deal, you could end up waiting for years. All the market fundamentals show that now is a good time to buy – prices are down, interest rates near historically low levels, and there are lots of homes to choose from.
If you buy now, you will not only be in the driver’s seat during the buying process, you will also reap the gains of price appreciation. Remember, those who purchased homes in the early 1990s during the last big economic and housing downturn came out as big winners.

| More Homeowners Choose Metal Roofs |
| |
"Metal roofs — made from steel, aluminum and copper — offer a number of benefits. They're more fire-resistant than cedar shakes or cedar shingles, more wind-resistant than asphalt shingles, and more earthquake-resistant than tiles. And because they come in a variety of colors, patterns and textures — resembling red brick tiles for example — they can be selected to fit with most any part of the country."
