Mortgage & Commercial Lending News.

At AMI Lenders, we believe 2022 is still a good time, especially for first-time buyers, to get a mortgage and purchase a lovely house for you and your family. Interest rates are still attractive compared to previous decades, and house price increases have slowed since the recent pandemic. Finally, buying a house with a fixed-rate mortgage is still a good hedge against inflation's effects.

At AMI Lenders, we want our customers to succeed and take advantage of the financial opportunities provided by real estate investments. We strive to communicate the multiple facets of real estate investing through our blogs.

In this article, we would like to highlight -for first-time investors as well experienced investors- some benefits of investing in real estate property.

In this blog, we want to share what we have seen successful flippers do when hunting for an investment property.
