New Pittsburg Loan Limits for FHA, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac home loans

"The market is Hot, Hot, Hot!" says realtor Connie Wolff. "Buyers are out there. Prices have stabilized; the 30 year FRM rates are in the 6.5% range and still very low. A Diamond In The Rough, Pittsburgh has been voted the 3rd least expensive in the Nation and the 9th Most Livable City in the Nation!" Home prices have jumped 10% from last year, and sales have climbed roughly 200 units since the beginning of the year.

Rising interest rates designed to fight inflation haven't hurt Pittsburgh. Pennsylvania mortgage lenders also reported another drop in second mortgage interest rates for this period. This resulted in a slight increase in home equity loan application volumes. While Pittsburgh refinancing application volumes dipped slightly for the same period.

"The inventory available to buy has increased in recent months, says realtor Bob Kohler. "We have returned to a normal market. Sellers are getting used to the idea that their home has to be in great shape and they have to price it more realistically. Buyers are taking more time to select their new home."

"Certain 'trendy' or 'high profile' city neighborhoods are mostly unaffected," says realtor Cindy Haislip. "But in some other neighborhoods, properties are taking a little longer to sell. It has been reported that nationally it is a Buyer's market. But here in Pittsburgh, I'd call it a 'draw'."
