BUY NOW OR PAY MORE LATER

With all the talk of possible US Government default, it's enough to make anyone nervous and hesitate to make any long term commitments. However it comes out, the end result will most certainly be an increase in interest rates because we are in danger of losing the governments AAA credit raing which will mean that every dollar that the government borrows will cost more in interest. The downgraded federal credit rating will also mean that many states and local city governments will also experience a reduced credit raing because of the dependence on federal funds. All this will equal increased interest rates across the board for everything. These increased costs will thereby fuel inflation, putting added pressure on rising interest rates. So if you are seriously considering buy a home, now is the time before interest rates rise.
