Lafayette 2020 Q1 Market Update MartinHomesTeam.com

•
our Spring market was robust with record demand Homes continue to sell during Covid-19. People continue to need a place to live and albeit at a slower pace, homes are selling in the current environment While the short-term impact is unknown, the brightest and best minds in the world are all focused on making sure we get back to normal as fast as possible There will always be excess demand for Lafayette. Great schools, a deeprooted sense of family, a quaint but sophisticated downtown and access to outdoors will always attract homebuyers to our hometown The Suburbs will be in demand. A permanent shift is developing among large companies proving that employees can efficiently work and effectively communicate while working from home. This will undoubtedly place a premium on Lafayette as more and more families place a higher value on space, yard and quality of life versus commute time Record low mortgage rates will persist. As we recover the government will likely highly incentive homebuyers and investors to deploy capital with record low mortgage rates and potentially negative interest rates. These factors will continue to make real estate a great long-term investment
