If I Kick Up Enough Dust!
Have you hard "A LOT" of complaining lately? The president's complaining that there is another crisis, Congress has lost touch with the people who put them in office and yes some real estate agents have been doing the "whiny thing" about this tough market. Well, I am sure tired of hearing about it.
I'm not complaining! I am doing whatever it takes to improve my life, my career and my country. I'm assisting those who call for my services with the best positive attitude and expertise. I have always embraced the real estate business as a career.
I have been assisting people buying and selling homes through all types of markets over the last 24 plus years. Up markets, Down markets, Seller's markets, Buyer's markets, Flat and Stagnant markets. You see, Real Estate is a simple business, it is NOT an easy business.
In whatever market we happen to be in, there's one thing that has always made America strong and able to weather any economic Storm thrown at her...
It is America's unstoppable attitude! And, in Real Estate it is the "American Dream" of home ownership that drives the market. Prices go up and prices go down. However, the unstoppable "Dream of Home Ownership" will have people always looking to improve the quality of their life.
If it makes sense for you to sell now, for whatever the reason, then it's time to sell. I think you will want the Broker that says "I am going to get this sold for you."
If you are thinking of buying or investing, for whatever reason, then it's time to purchase. I think you will want the broker that says "I am going to find just the right home for you."
I have been pounding the pavement, kicking up dust, showing properties and holding open houses almost every weekend since January. The year is half over and I have helped 17 people buy and sell their homes so far this year. My agents are busy and doing well also.
"Lead by example" is what my mother told me when I was young.
My thinking is "if i kick up enough dust, I believe I'll get some dust on me." A positive attitude is what is needed in this type of real estate market.
There are so many great real estate opportunities to invest in right now! For example, the $8,000 Tax Credit for First Time Buyer's is a great way to help you or your children get into their first home.
How about those retirement dreams? Laguna Beach, San Clemente, Lake Arrowhead? These areas have dropped to more then reasonable prices!
Thinking of selling? Curious to what's working in this market? Target marketing is doing really well for the executive home. First Time Buyer seminars are doing great for the more modest priced homes.
Interest Rates have been holding steady at just above 5% for conforming loans and 6.75% for Jumbo Loans. Easy Docs and No Income Qualifier Loans do not exist anymore. We are in a full documentation loan market. Good Credit and income provide for fabulous opportunities.
As always feel free to call me with ANY questions, I'm here to help 714.626.8880
