When is a good time to buy a house?

(BPT) - You've saved up a down payment, and you're ready to buy a home. But before you talk to a real estate agent or start visiting open houses, you're probably asking yourself, "Is it a good time to buy a house right now?"

The best time to buy a house is different for everyone. Instead of waiting for rates to drop or prices to cool, the better question is, "Am I ready to buy a house?" When your finances are solid and the numbers work for your life, a good time to buy isn't something you wait for. It's something you build toward.
