Brian Buffini says "A recession is a terrible thing...to waste!" I say that this market is full of opportunity. Everyone needs a place to live. Someone is always going to own the place you live in...do you want it to be you or your landlord?
First time buyers have a wealth of incentives in this market...the $8,000. tax credit or 10% of the purchase price, whichever is less; the historically low interest rates; and the incredible housing prices. In addition, FHA is offering it's own set of attractive incentives!
The media news can make us feel as if the sky is falling every day. The fact is that 96.7% of home mortgages are NOT in foreclosure and 30% of homeowners don't even have a mortgage; they own their homes outright!! There are many people out there who have jobs and are ready to invest or downsize but have been so negatively influenced by the media that they are unable to see the opportunties.
Certainly, for many of us, the times are challenging right now but this country, and the world, has seen far worse. We will get through this, albeit a bit more cautious than we may have been in the past. But we all need to realize that opportunities exist right now.
Call me so we can talk about the opportunities that might be there for you!
