Great news – your offer was accepted on a new construction home. But what happens next? The process is different than it is with a resale home (see our blog post for details on that.)

Here's an interesting stat – as of this writing, the current average 30-year mortgage rate in the US is 6.94%. One year ago, it was only 3.09%. In early November, the Fed meets again to consider another interest rate hike, possibly bumping mortgage rates even higher. If you're in the market for a home loan, don't despair. With new creative financing options, the home of your dreams is still within easy reach, especially at Harbor Club.

Congratulations – the seller accepted your offer on the home of your dreams. But what happens next? Much of it depends on whether you're buying a resale or new construction home.
