Check Out Shorewest’s Company-Wide Open House Extravaganza this Sunday, Sept. 16
Brookfield, WI. With fixed-rate mortgages hovering at near record lows, housing in Wisconsin remains very affordable. In fact, Milwaukee was recently ranked second in the top 10 Real Estate Buyer’s Markets across the United States by Good Morning America.
To help people looking to buy a home in today’s market, Shorewest, REALTORS® is having a company-wide Open House Extravaganza this Sunday, Sept. 16. More than 500 homes listed by Shorewest will be open on Sunday. Sales associates are ready to answer questions about the local housing market and the home buying and selling process.
“Owning a home creates a sense of freedom and accomplishment,” said Joseph A. Horning, President of Shorewest, Realtors®. “It also provides family stability and encourages community involvement.”
Homeownership also provides both equity accumulation and tax benefits. Home equity, the value of a property minus what is owed on the property accrues gradually as a property increases in value over time. Homeowners can leverage equity to establish lines of credit, which can be used to make repairs or upgrades to their homes.
