    Single Woman Homebuying

    Who is the #2 homebuyer in this country? It’s the single woman. Single women are buying homes in record numbers. Indeed, single women represent the fastest-growing demographic of home buyers. For many single women, there’s no reason to wait on such a smart investment until "Mr. Right"  can be found. Here are the stats on what many single women are looking for in a home (and can usually achieve in today’s buyer’s market!):

    *$200,000 to $300,000
    *At least 2 bedrooms
    *New construction
    *Location in the city (near the essentials–shopping, dining and entertainment)

    If you’re like most successful single women with good credit, you can probably get into a home on good terms. And there are plenty of reasons to buy a home, from having a place of your own to making a great investment that appreciates in value to the tax benefits that come with home ownership.
