Prepare yourself for buying a house in this season.

As social distancing restrictions begin to lighten, many people are turning their thoughts again toward buying a house. If you’re considering taking this exciting step, it will help you to know what obstacles you might need to navigate. Here are some potential issues you might consider as you make plans:

  • Supply is still limited. Many home sellers are waiting until a greater time of certainty to list their houses on the market, so the market is tight and competitive.
