WRAP-UP
We continue to see changes in the Flagstaff market as Buyers and Sellers react to conditions outside of their control. Many believe mortgage rates are still too high for their taste. This has an impact on sellers who are reluctant to put their home on the market due to costs of a replacement home. It can be challenging for sellers with low mortgage rates to decide if they should sell their current home and purchase another at a higher mortgage rate. There are many other reasons why sellers have concerns about selling their home in today’s market. We at Best Flagstaff homes are here to help.

Hmmm, I’ll go with Gorilla since Sara took monkey. Gorillas are strong but gentle creatures. They like to eat, play and cozy up in family groups out in nature. I feel like those are my life goals now.
