Presidential Election Prompts Home Buyers to Wait-and-See
DAILY REAL ESTATE NEWS | TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 2012
A quarter of Americans say they want to put off purchasing a home until they know who the next president will be, according to a poll conducted on behalf of MortgageMarvel.com of more than 2,500 adults.
“It’s understandable that a considerable number of people say the upcoming election would give them pause for thought,” says Rick Allen, chief operating officer of Mortgage Marvel. “There has been speculation that tax policies could change depending upon who wins. Some have even indicated that the longstanding deduction for mortgage interest could be eliminated. It appears that mortgage interest rates will remain low for the foreseeable future, so there’s no pressure on people to act before rates rise. In such an environment, I can see that cautious people would take a wait-and-see attitude before making a home purchase.”
On a regional basis, people in the South had the highest percentage of those who said they’d delay buying a home because of the uncertainty surrounding the presidential election. Meanwhile, Americans in the West had the largest percentage of people who said the upcoming election has no effect on their home purchase decisions.
大統領選挙も目前になってきました。
選挙の結果を見てと様子を伺っているバイヤーは購入を時期をずらしています。と言うものの大統領選が家の購入の決定になる要素は少ないというのが西側の意見のようです。
