The seminars will provide FREE professional advice and information to prospective buyers and sellers who are considering a purchase or sale in today's tricky housing market.

Focuses on helping first-time homebuyers and anyone who hasn't owned a home in 3 years learn how they can take advantage of the $8,000 stimulus tax credit available to them this year.
"The new $8,000 stimulus tax credit is a wonderful opportunity for first-time homebuyers to make their move and become a homeowner.

The second seminar will take place on Thursday April 16, 2009 from 6:30 to 7:30pm.
Focuses on educating anyone interested in buying a foreclosed home or short sale property.
"Foreclosed and short sale properties make up a large part of our current housing market," said Page. "The seminar will provide beneficial information on the variety of exceptional bargains prospective buyers can find right now through foreclosures and short sale properties. Our experienced Realtors can guide buyers through the process and show them all the great deals available now."
Location of Home Buying Seminars...
Both seminars will be held at Crye-Leike, REALTORS Hendersonville branch office located at 383 Johnny Cash Parkway in Hendersonville, Tennessee. All the agents in the office will be hosting the event and be in attendance to answer questions from prospective homebuyers and sellers.
In addition to Crye-Leike agents, the program will include expert representatives from Magna Bank who work with real estate clients in the lending and banking business. They will be available to discuss any financing questions and to help with getting pre-qualified to purchase a home.
"We want to educate prospective homebuyers on all the amazing opportunities available to them in this current housing market," said Page. "With so many homes on the market to choose from and interest rates being at a historical low, now is the perfect time for anyone to start investing in their future. We encourage the community to attend the seminars and let us help you realize why now is the ideal time to make your dreams of homeownership a reality."
The public is invited to attend the seminars and discuss topics including...
How and where to start looking for a home
Knowing what a buyer can afford
Why home inspections are important
Improving your credit score
Why now is a great time to buy.
Prospective sellers can hear what's happening in their local housing market instead of the generalized gloom and doom they hear in national media reports. Sellers can also find out about what things they can do to help sell their homes quicker in this current buyer's market.
"It's important for the community to be educated about what's involved in the buying and selling process," said Page."The seminars will be a wonderful opportunity for people in our communities to discuss what's going on in the housing market. We encourage everyone to come ask questions, learn about buying and selling their home, and discover their best options in today's challenging market."

Crye-Leike, REALTORS is launching a grassroots effort to Stem the Flow of Foreclosures. Harold and Dick are calling on you, our agents & managers, to reach out personally and help a family facing foreclosure. Please read the letter below from our Cofounders and help us "Save The Dream" for as many homeowners as possible.
Dear Crye-Leike Family,
There are now hundreds of thousands of families all across America facing foreclosure because they simply cannot afford their mortgage payments, or they owe far more than their house is currently worth. To make matters even worse, the Mortgage Bankers Association reports that approximately 50% of home owners who do lose their homes to foreclosure have never once contacted their lender.
With this stark reality in mind, we are writing to you today to initiate a system-wide Call-to-Action to the more the thousands of brokers, managers and sales professionals who are affiliated with us. We are asking each of you to help "Save the Dream" of home ownership for just one family facing foreclosure. We believe that we have both an opportunity and an obligation to help our neighbors and our local communities by trying to prevent as many foreclosures from occurring as possible.
This "Save the Dream" initiative may require several hours or even a few days of your time, but we are confident the end result will be well worth the effort, both personally and professionally. Specifically, we are asking each of you to find just one family in your local community who may be facing foreclosure and help them reach out to their lender or a housing counseling agency so that they can begin the process of exploring a loan workout solution and hopefully stay in their homes. If you don't know of anyone in this unfortunate position, we're confident that you can use your networking skills to find someone who needs this kind of help and approach them in confidence and with great sensitivity to the situation. Collectively, we can make a difference.
Here are direct links to two of the best resource sites available that you can use both to educate yourselves and to share with people in need of learning more about how they can help themselves avoid foreclosure:
One thing we have learned during our career as real estate professionals is that we REALTORS® are very focused on community service. You spend time every year supporting a myriad of very worthwhile causes like Habitat for Humanity, Youth Villages, Big Brothers Big Sisters, Toys for Tots and Make-A-Wish, to name just a few. You know firsthand that doing good deeds is indeed good business. More than that, we know you care deeply about your communities.
America got into this foreclosure crisis one house at a time, and we need to resolve it one house at a time. Please help "Save the Dream" for someone today. Thank you.
