Windows of Opportunity and The Winds of Change in Real Estate


The Winds are always Changing in Real Estate, that's what keeps us on our toes!!  The latest recap is evidence of the variables that are tabulated, studied and pondered, to try and predict what's next!
I pay attention to the national news and what my clients personal experiences are.  In my 35+ years of experience, no one can predict the future ~~ there are too many variables in the mix.  

The BEST determinant is doing what is BEST for your family and current situation.  You might choose to be trendy, that could mean trouble, unless you have deep pockets and can absorb the unexpected.

There is a current Window of Opportunity by which I mean, a lull in the increases in prices.  Who knows how long this will last or what the next hiccup will bring!  But NOW is an opportune time to invest in YOUR FUTURE! 

The past year has been a wild ride with multiple offers for both my buyers and sellers but it has consistently worked out for the BEST for all my clients.  Amazing!  Even though we had been in bidding exchanges for my buyers, we ultimately came out with the BEST properties, in all instances, that suited my buyers ~~  it was just in the Stars!!
Just when you are getting discouraged, defeated, deflated ~~ up pops a property that is better in so many ways and I get the call, that the owner accepted our offer, as written, no counter!  Woowhooo!
This is the fun part, getting peoples dreams to materialize.  Having the experience to make it a smooth process and the knowledge and connections to have the right resources to work through the wrinkles.
The market is quieting down now, a combo of the season and a slight uptick in the interest rate affecting those non-cash buyers.

Since the inventory has been and  is still low, great time to put it out there if you are needing/wanting to sell any real estate.  Amazing amount of cash buyers, I have had several each year for the past four ~~  this results in a quick escrow AND SELLERS MOVING IN THE DIRECTION THEY WANT TO GO.

The bottom line is that now remains a great time to consider a home purchase or refinance, as home loan rates remain attractive compared to historical levels. Let me know if I can answer any questions at all for you.
