"Under-water" isn't a term I used much in nearly 18 years of real estate — until this year. An under-water home is one listed for less than the owners paid for it. And right now, across Northumberland, Durham and the Kawarthas, there are hundreds of them — at every price point, from first-time-buyer homes to waterfront, new builds and condos. These are NOT fixer-uppers or neglected homes. They're well-kept homes owned by good people who simply bought at the wrong moment. It's pandemic fallout. Here's the part most people miss: it's usually not that these owners can't afford their payments. Most bought in 2021, when homes sold in a day with 20+ offers and rates were rock-bottom. Five years later, values have dropped, mortgages are up for renewal, and the home is often worth less than what's still owed — so to renew, the bank wants the difference in cash. Many simply don't have it. That makes this one of the best windows for buyers I've seen in a long time — but every home has its own story, and I'll always walk you through the risks too. I broke it all down, mortgage math and all, right here 👉 https://realestatesmarts.ca/d8r6qflx
