Many buyers are asking whether they should wait for interest rates to change. In towns like Stratham and Greenland, we’re seeing buyers move forward strategically rather than trying to perfectly time the market.

Why?

  • Refinancing later is always an option

  • Spring competition is approaching

  • Rental prices continue to climb

  • Home values remain historically strong

The right time to buy isn’t about headlines — it’s about your personal readiness.
