Charlotte North Carolina Online Real Estate Auction Auction yields 1100 attendees

Have you ever wondered what exactly make an auction work? Many around Charlotte North Carolina does after yesterday’s online property auction for Lots, Land and office condo sold to 5 different buyers I talk to Brokers and Agents all the time about why would you auction property and I get mixed emotions a quite a bit of feedback. Online property auctions are certainly a viable way to allow consumers to buy property, real estate and land online in a forum that is convenient. The ideas that you can set at your desk or a kitchen table is real and evident when the final bids are received and contracts written. As an Auction producer I can only tell you that Auctions work because of the involvement of professions that understand the business of marketing, understanding the sellers point of view and guiding bidders through the bid process, working the entire online auction just as if we were standing in front of a room full of 1000 people. Well let’s back up and take a look at the 1000 people in today’s auction environment. It is really hard to get 1000 people in a single room given the challenges of the buying market we have.

However in the auction we held in Charlotte we had over 1100 that attended the auction process online. We offered multiple properties to close in five different stages of events with auction times ending starting at 2:00 PM through 3:15 PM. This staggered method allowed the bidders to bid on a certain property and then have the choice to bid on others as well. The office condo had 377 in the online auction with 2790 page views and a total of 29 bids during the bidding period. When is the last time you seen 377 people packed in a room? The land auction that ended 15 Minutes later yielded 659 attendees, 3189 page views and 51 bids. Selling property online is an incredible way to sell real estate and get buyers involved in the process. Additionally the same bidders were bidding on future auctions in Raleigh-Durham North Carolina and Rogersville, Tennessee. This Rogersville Tennessee Farm consists of 172 acres and will sell absolute and you can now bid online all channels are on and all you have to do is place your bid now. Watch the Video below and then go to Certified Land Auction , Register and Bid on the Raleigh-Durham properties or the Tennessee Farm or Land in Florida.

Rural acreage at auction in Millington, Shelby County, Tennessee

Myers Jackson (Real Estate Auctions, Land Auctioneer) — Wed, 04 Apr 2012 08:01:18 -0700

Rural acreage at auction in Millington, Shelby County, Tennessee

Looking for Rural acreage at Auction? Millington, Shelby County, Tennessee is worth looking at. This 67-acre tract of land is located just west of Millington on Shakerag Road just a little south of Shelby Rd. This site is well laid out and rural property is the definition of this piece of land. United Country’s CEO Dan Duffy was just quoted in the US NEWS and World Report; saying ”Land is also broadly characterized as a “real” asset. It’s tangible, and that makes it an inflation-fighter”.

The full story can be read in the entire article by; Rachel Beals in her March 28^th article.

Rural property selling at auction is not uncommon and there are auctions almost daily around the country. The biggest questing is what’s the reserve in many parts of the country where absolute auctions are not the common practice. Reserve Auctions simply mean that the seller can reject the final bid. The biggest fear is that the property will sell for fifty dollars of some other intangible amount. This is certainly not reality in normal circumstances; the bigger question should be “WHAT IS MARKET PRICE? ” The auction method of marketing will produce the market price for the property if certain steps are taken to deliver credible information to the buying public.

Although there are mixed emotions in Tennessee on how to handle Real Estate Auctions for land and acreage, equipment and other assets, the main consideration is the exposure and how the property is marketed. Buyers will buy if well informed and presented with the product that is for sale.

If you are looking for land then just get involved, instead of asking what is the reserve turn it around and tell what you are willing to pay, this happens at the auction. It’s your forum to state your case and say what you think the property is worth. See you at the Auction.

How to make money at .24- real estate investment – CCIM’s Please Help

How to make money at .24- real estate investment – CCIM’s Please Help

What would be the significance of .24 in a real estate investment? Well most anyone would learn as I did in the CCIM course of financial analytics that the cap rate might determine what the return on your investment. Is anyone out there looking for a 20% cap rate or better? If you are then you may want to take a serious look at a Small Ranch just outside of Jackson, Mississippi. Lets take a look at the numbers: ok say that you make an investment of 400,000 for this facility, fill up all the retable space at the lowest price of 100.00, now multiply that by 80 (this is the number of spaces that are available) you will get 8000.00 per month or 96,000 per year: if my math is correct. Now that would put the cap rate at 24%. Please if they are any CCIM’s out there would help me with is this calculation I would appreciate that.

Of course this is based on that purchase price, what might happen if you get it a little bit cheaper? Then it is very possible that the cap rate would go up and that means a better investment.

There is another home on the property that could be rented for 700.00 per month easy if you put some legwork into it. All this of course is speculative but I believe that any hardworking entrepreneur willing to make some healthy income would be willing to do what it would take to make this happen.

Take a look at the property and decide for your self if you are willing to make that kind of money, heck if you paid cash at 390,000.00 you could make the property pay for itself in just under four years providing you were willing to make a solid effort to make it happen.

All the details can be found on the Auction Calendar and the property will be sold at Auction on March 24^th. So get the details now on how to invest in this property. There is even a caretaker willing to manage the property. She has been around this business for the last thirty something years. This location has had a business located on the property for over 40 years earning income as a Feed Store, Western Wear, Party Room, Barrel Racing, Stable Rentals, Equine Events, and other activities. Make your plans to attend the auction and buy the property. Call the Auctioneers for the details at 800-711-9175 of see them on the web at Certified Land Auction.

Seller speakes about upcoming auction to be held in Hinds County on March, 24,2012

Myers Jackson (Real Estate Auctions, Land Auctioneer) — Mon, 12 Mar 2012 11:54:02 -0700

This is a interview with information from the seller of one of our properties in the March auction series. This property will be sold at auction in Hinds County Mississippi on March 24, 2012.

Via Amanda Leverett:

Interview with the seller of a prime horse facility to be auctioned on March 24, 2012 In Mississippi

Can you please tell me the history of the facility?

This facility was established in the early 1960’s. It has been used for professional rodeos, Horse Shows, Camps. The operation brought home the Commissioners Award three years in a row at the Dixie National Rodeo. The structures were renovated in 2002.

What types of profit can be expected from the current clientele?

The boarding business has been very strong with a 95% occupancy rate. The majority of income can be produced with camps, lessons, and field trips. Currently self service boarding is $100 per horse, owner provides hay/feed and is responsible for cleaning after their animal and feeding. In the area of full care depending of owner preference the normal rate is $450-$800 per month. Calls are received daily for camps, birthday parties, lessons and field trips. However with the decision to relocate this is not being offered at this time.   The front barn is 45 stalls and is full.

What do you consider to be the best feature of the property?

The business is on auto pilot. The center of the barn has been a restaurant, feed and tack store, most recently used as a party room. It is the only facility under a special use district in the state. This is the designation for coliseums, horse shows, riding academies, and parks. It is nearly impossible to acquire this in the county and impossible in a residential setting. There is a 250x150 lighted area for shows and clients to ride, a 60 ft lighted round pen, and also trails at the back  of the property.

Approximately how many boarders did you have when the business was at its peak performance?

There has never been any difficulty filling the facility with renters. At one point it was necessary to turn down business as the facility was at capacity. The focus has always been families and children. With animals for kids to pet (goats, ducks, chickens, pigs, cows) and hay rides around the 45 acre facility.  Birthday parties ranged from $150-$200 per two hours, camps $200 per three days, and lessons $30-35 per hour. Field trips were offered at 8-10 per child depending on the duration of the trip. Many of the prices could easily be increased. The income possibilities are endless.

What makes this property unique in comparison to area facilities?

The facility is centrally located and the business is just waiting! With high visibility and new horse people the opportunity for training and possibility to get top dollar for the sale of horses is excellent. The current owner described the property as a horse lover’s paradise, however they have made the decision it is time to move on and accomplish new goals. Check out the United Country INational auction schedule. Now is the time to invest in land and what better way to increase revenue than buy a turnkey business along with the land investment.

Stolen dream

Myers Jackson (Real Estate Auctions, Land Auctioneer) — Fri, 03 Jun 2011 18:56:55 -0700

It is good to have some one shoot the straight truth about matters in lending , real Estate and just in life. This saves everyone of us time , money and effort, Ray at least was honest with the guy and tried to help.

Via Ray Waisler NMLS #6621 Specializing in Jumbo FHA & VA (Home Savings of America-Atlanta, GA Lending Nationwide):

Stolen dream

I got a call from a prospective client yesterday about financing a home he is purchasing. He was somewhat anxious because he is relocating from Ohio to South Carolina and due to close on the South Carolina purchase on June 17, which is in 2 weeks. I explained to him that it is going to be tight, but it can be done if he gets me what I need quickly and he was more than agreeable. After further conversation I asked him why the short time frame and had he been working with someone else. His response was he started the process 3 weeks ago with the builder's lender and was just turned down today and that was the reason for the call. As you can imagine all sorts of bells are going off in my head now and here's how the rest of the conversation went.

Me - "Did they tell you why you were denied?"

Him - "Because I was a victim of credit fraud and the loan officer I was working with told me that all I needed was a letter from my attorney stating that I am a victim of credit fraud and he is working on it"

Me - "And the loan officer told you that would be sufficient to explain your credit issues to the underwriter?"

Him - "That's exactly what he told me, but he is not there anymore and someone else from the company called me this morning to tell me I was denied and very angry that I wasted 3 weeks with them."

Me - "I'm sorry to have to tell you this, but based on your credit score of 534 and all the collections and charge off accounts on your report, I don't know of any lender that would entertain making this loan regardless of the reason. Unfortunately, this matter would have to be corrected before consideration and you credit score would have to be 600 at the very least. "

Him - "It doesn't matter that I was the victim of identity theft and my attorney is working on it?"

Me - "Unfortunately the underwriter would have no way of knowing the reasons behind the credit so they have to take it at face value".

Him - "Oh."

I explained to him that there are remedies for his situation, but they take time. I feel terrible for this guy and what he went through. I feel even worse that there is nothing I can do to help him on such short notice.

He was robbed by a thief who stole his identity and then he was robbed out of 3 weeks of his time by an incompetent loan officer. Now he is being robbed of his first home ownership dream and he will probably be robbed of his earnest money.

He will eventually get it straightened out, but not in time for his relocation.

ActiveRainPhotoBloggerContest : For Fear of Falling Down

Myers Jackson (Real Estate Auctions, Land Auctioneer) — Thu, 02 Jun 2011 23:19:34 -0700

Photo always makes the world look different. No matter haw we try to tell a story it always looks better with the photo to tag along. I fly a lot of aerial pics and I try not to think about ending up like this. But when I am in the air the beauty of what is below overtakes my other thoughts...

Via Andre R. Aragon Real Estate Photographer / Photo Coach (New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Real Estate Photography):

The Heights We Shall Miss For Fear of Falling Down. Thursday May 15th, 2003 was a crystal clear spring day. The sun was shining in a near cloudless sky as the morning air was warming into the 60's. This was the perfect day for a two-plus hour photo flight. I had 8 locations scheduled near the New York / Connecticut border that I had plotted the previous evening. My Pentax 67 and lenses were in my bag along with 20 rolls of Kodak 400VC 220.

I arrived at the airport to greet the pilot, whom I was meeting for the first time. We quickly went over the flight plan and made our way to the tarmac to board the Schweizer 269C helicopter. I had flown in this type of three-bladed helicopter before and I really liked it as a shooting platform. For a small two-seat helicopter, it had power and felt very stable. Mike, the pilot, went over his pre-flight check list which included checking my seat belt - he reached across me to straighten one of the straps of my three-part harness.

After lifting from the pad and communicating our intentions to the tower, we flew to the south through the valley, climbing through one thousand feet and into beautiful views in every direction. The long island sound, numerous lakes, houses, ranch communities and distant mountain ranges were all around us. This was one of those rare severe-clear days when visibility at altitude is over 100 miles in every direction. The sky was so crisp in fact, that I could see the Empire State Building and Manhattan nearly 50 miles away quite clearly.

We found our first three locations (we call them targets) with out a problem, but the next one was difficult (this was just before we started using GPS to make locating targets easier as the norm) and we zig-zagged and orbited over a wooded area for nearly 10 minutes before we found our bearings. Feeling quite satisfied upon completion of this target, I began to make conversation with my new friend as I changed out another roll of film, and we once again climbed and turned south east to find our four remaining targets.

I thanked Mike for his excellent flying - he was so smooth and consistent in his orbit of the property that we flew through our own wake as we made circles in the sky. I said "Wow what a beautiful day!" and Mike replied in a very calm pilot's voice, "We have a problem."

I heard the weakening whir of the engine and rotors in my headset as we lost RPMs. We quickly began to fall from 1,200 feet in a steep left hand turn. I began to stow my gear and lenses in my bag - doing my job while I let the pilot do his. When I looked up again only seconds later, the scene that had once been a limitless horizon, was now roof tops, swimming pools, power lines and trees. I gripped my bag and stared straight ahead as we flew 20 feet off the ground into the back yard of a home where landscapers were mowing, hedging and watching us fly by.

Mike tried to slow us down so we could land in the grass by pulling back on the controls to flare the helicopter - but we were too high and too fast - so he let the nose settle as we flew straight for the trees that bordered the property. I remember the rest in slow motion as vividly as if it happened today.

My bag in my lap, my right hand gripping the outer frame of the door-less helicopter, my view in the windscreen was rapidly filled with a wall of trees. We were about 10 feet off the deck when Mike tickled the nose a little bit to the right to avoid hitting a tree head on as we entered the woods. The engine was silent, and the wind over the blades was the only sound until the rotors made contact with the web of branches with a massive -CRACK- breaking the silence.

We immediately fell to the earth with another massive -CRACK- as I witness the glass windscreen break and separate from the panel as we impacted violently with a rock-scraping thud, rolled over to the left in a cloud of leaves, branches and dirt. I heard Mike say SH*T in my headset within the sound of twisting metal, flying rocks, gravel, glass and branches as we rolled.

Then there was silence. I don't know if I blacked out for a second, but the next thing I remember seeing was pavement, paper maps and glass and leaves all over my camera bag and lenses, which were scattered on the ground just below me. I then saw sneakers and the cuff of jeans. It was Mike, his training had kicked in, and he was already out of the helicopter assessing the situation while I was hanging nearly upside down in my harness. He yelled, "Get out - Get Out We're Leaking Fuel!" In a single deft move, I un-clipped, rolled and landed on my feet - climbing out of the front glass, scooping my camera gear and bag as I cleared the wreck, having visions of Reality TV car fires in my head.

Thankfully a fire never started as Mike grabbed a bucket from on site within seconds to capture the fuel. The landscapers and other witnesses now began encircling the scene as I grabbed my camera, loaded a roll of film and bent the mangled metal film door back into place. I heard sirens in the distance as I quickly walked around the aircraft and made several exposures. The first police officer on the scene, thinking I was the media, asked "how did you get here so fast?" I said " I came here in that!" pointing to the helicopter. He grabbed me by the arm and asked me to sit with Mike to wait for medical attention. Mike was in obvious discomfort and was complaining of pain in his lower back.

Within minutes every emergency service within 10 miles was on scene and we were ushered by ambulance to the nearest hospital for further evaluation. The rest of the day is kind of a blur - with interviews for the doctors, police, FAA and NTSB taking up most of our time at the hospital. Mike and I both walked way with lower back injuries - but are otherwise fine and still flying together 8 years later.

Mike told me that day that he promised himself he would retire if he ever had an incident - after 30 years this had been his first. Even though I did not know him very well, I knew pilots, and I sensed that he would continue to fly, and he did. The following week Mike and I were up again in a different helicopter flying on the New York /Connecticut border. We still had four targets to photograph and we needed to fly.

Mike and I have flown hundreds of hours together since our forced-landing. We have flown over 40 monthly shoots at the construction of the New Yankee Stadium. We have flown at dusk in Manhattan around the Empire State Building and Time Square, and in early mornings over the beaches of Long Island. We have flown in the hot summer and cold, cold winters at minus 8 degrees with the doors off. We have flown double dates with my Fiancee and Mike's girl. I simply can't imagine never flying again.

Flying is living - it is a part of life for me. Earlier that day I saw a quote attributed to Leonardo da Vinci pinned above the calendar on Mike's office wall. "When once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return." I'd like to add "The Heights We Shall Miss For Fear of Falling Down". My perspective and priorities were forever changed on that day, having faced what easily could have turned out badly a hundred different ways. One thing that was crystallized for me in this experience is the fact that life may be here one second and gone the next. It is important to live as large as we can dream and to share and experience this amazing gift with as many people, as fully as we can, while we are all here together.

Get Out There and FLY!

The Blame Game

Myers Jackson (Real Estate Auctions, Land Auctioneer) — Thu, 02 Jun 2011 23:12:30 -0700

We can only be responsible for what we do and what we don't do.. Why take credit when we complain about the problem? The way to step out in life is to take responsibility for our actions. Just like Lou says, if we stumble get up and move to the next rock to climb, after climbing enough rocks you just may be on a mountain..

Motivational Power Quote

The Blame Game

"A man may fall many times but be won't he won't

be a failure until he says someone pushed him."

Elmer G. Letterman, author



As I see it. . . . . . . .

The blame game

If a person doesn't stumble and fall in life they are not pushing themselves or try hard enough.

At one time or another we all trip, stumble, fall and fail. Each one of them is mile markers along the side of the road and the tolls we pay on our success journey.

We would like to think about our success journey as being an expressway with no tolls. In reality our success journey is a toll road and there is a price paid to become successful. Each toll that we pay moves us closer to our goals.

Success will come as a result of being resilient and through our persistence, not in never having experienced a setback or a failure.

The only real failure in life comes in quitting and in blaming others for our conditions.

Successful people take the personal responsibility for the conditions that you find yourself in today and the responsibility to change the conditions to create the desired outcome.

Blaming others for our conditions is a total waste of time and energy. It will not have any positive results and becomes a sentence to average. Taking responsibility is the fuel to change the conditions in your life and change the results that you have been getting.

The blame game is a losing proposition that no one comes out as a winner. Take control of your life, take responsibility for your future and be willing to pay the tolls to get you the desired outcome.

Credit Repair a Blessing ? or a Curse ?

Myers Jackson (Real Estate Auctions, Land Auctioneer) — Thu, 02 Jun 2011 17:23:33 -0700

Credit will be worth more than money?? In many cases in order to get money this will be a true statement. The value that we put on our credit should out way the value on many so called assets we purchase on credit. Learning more and knowing more will be valuable as well. Trinity Enterprises has some great information below...

Via Cheryl Hinnant (Trinity Enterprises LLC Winter park Florida):

Trinity Enterprises LLC feels as though education is the key to helping consumers out of debt on a national scale. It's not always a loss of income in which landed debt but lack of knowledge many times. Credit can be a blessing and can also be a curse. Blessing when it comes to the home buying process because the average consumer does not have the funds to purchase out right their dream home or even a car for that matter.

The side that can be a curse when there is excessive spending on credit cards and not enough discipline to pay the debt on time or income to substantiuate a payment. Rule of thumb to protect your credit when it comes to credit cards is never over exceed 30% of your available line of credit. With the way most interest is configure you will end of pay more interest than you borrowed from the line of credit. Make you minimum month payments on time. After 18 month good payment history do not hesitate to call the creditor and ask them to increase the limit give you more to borrow from. 888-461-8555 Ext:3

Many people do not know the difference between secured credit and unsecured so I will now take time to explain it and which is best for credit scores. Secured credit is basically your own money in which you have borrowed from. Bank will allow you a secured line of credit when in your own personal credit history is not to their standards. This can be because delinquent items listed on your credit report or can be because of lack credit. Most banks don't want to be the first to lend to you. Also beware of the start up credit cards as they have high moth fees and interests rates however not all start up or credit building credit cards work the same way.

Unsecured is just the opposite. So I'm saying there is no deposite necessary, well maybe a small set up or annual fee but it's in no way comparison to putting your own money in to get your own money out. If the bank gives you 500.00 in unsecured credit than it's money in which you didn't put in in order to get it out. This means you either had a decent credit history, made enough money, or show steady deposits in your bank account. Trinity Enterprises LLC encourages unsecured credit as is has the most impact to credit scores and in most cases the dollar amount if far large the secured lines of credit. 407-860-6330

This boosts scores because it says there was nothing that you had to so great in order to received credit or the funds that were extended to you. Another word of advice is to always have a steady Bank account and do not hesitate to ask your back about their credit lines and investment accounts. There's no need of having your funds in a bank in which the bank makes interest from your money and you do not see the benefits. I know personally Chase has an awesome money market account and is very reasonable with the interests rates on credit card.

If you were declined for a credit card from a Bank, ask the bank what credit bureaus did they pull from. This can be Equifax, Experian and TransUnion. If you need help in obtaining a copy of your credit report contact Trinity Enterprises LLC credit repair services base in Winter Park Florida. We can pull a copy of your credit report and tell you what items need improvement so that you are no longer declined for credit in the future. Credit repair can be the difference between you getting unsecured credit or secured credit. High interest rates credit card are a bumper and have alot of people down these days but it doesnt have to be that way, get educated and fix your credit. Fixing your credit report can be a simple as hiring a professional or doing it yourself. I would advise if you do not have the time or patience to do it yourself to hire a professional because many consumer make their credit reports worse by not know how to removing the negative items causing them all to be updated dropping their scores. 888-461-8555 Ext: 3

Remember if you plan on challenging account your credit report the dispute type "account not mine" is not the solution as it could cause the item to be re-reported with an earlier date dropping the scores nearly 30 points per item re-reported.

Another word of advise.... You do not have to be bothered by collection agencies at work. The Fair Debt Collections act says they must respect your privacy. Just ask them not to call, if they continue to call, please contact Trinity Enterprises LLC Complaint's department and will aid you in filing a complaint. Now I have a covered quite a few thing, I trust that this has been education and music to your earns. Until next time... Trinity Enterprises LLC wishes you and wonderful day. 407-831-2525

What are interest rates for VA loans? Santee, CA

Myers Jackson (Real Estate Auctions, Land Auctioneer) — Wed, 01 Jun 2011 19:18:20 -0700

If you are looking for a VA loan , Chris has made some good points to look into. I have never attempted a VA loan and I certainly suggest that you look to a professional in the field to get through the process..

Via Chris "The Loan Ranger" McBrearty FHA, VA, USDA, Loan Officer and Educator (Primary Residential Mortgage Inc.):

What are interest rates for VA loans? Santee, CA This is a common question asked of loan officers the nation over.

The answer is....well....I need more information. In the old days we used to say "I need more information" because we were trying to sell our services before the person got our rate and hung up the phone.

Today we are actually unable to accurately make a quote based on the question, What are interest rates for VA loans?, without first determining a few qualifying factors. Here are some basics you can expect to answer when asking What are interest rates for VA loans? :

1) Do you know your credit score? Interest rates for VA loans are impacted by your credit score. A person with a 620 credit score is not going to have the same interest rate for a VA loan as a person with a 720 credit score.

2) Do you know how money you would like to borrow? The loan amount will have a direct impact on the interest rate for a VA loan. Basically, if the loan amount is higher than the maximum high balance for your county (for example, San Diego County, CA has a high balance loan limit of $537,500) then you can count on your interest rate for a VA loan to be higher.

3) Do you need to work with a NICHE lender because your credit or qualifications are not conforming? The VA tell us that it is up to our determining factors to decide if you qualify for a VA loan or not. This gives a lender much leeway to make decisions about how risky they want to get when approving VA loans within certain guidelines. If you need to approach a lender that makes loans to people with recent bankruptcies that are within VA guidelines but outside the normal threshold for most banks then you can count on paying a higher interest rate for a VA loan.

VA loans are very liberal when compared to the main stream supply of funds to borrow for buying a home. Interest rates for VA loans are also extremely low because the loans are guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the US Government.

The bank that lends the money is protected and insured by our tax dollars.

You Can Knock Me Down But . . . .

Who is the Most famous home Run hitter ever? Who struck out the most? we have all heard it said if you are gonna hit the ball then you have to swing ! How far you want to hit the ball is up to you! Lou reveal the Home Run King....

Motivational Power Quote

You Can Knock Me Down But . . . .

"It's hard to beat a person

who never gives up."

Babe Ruth, baseball hall of fame



As I see it. . . . . . . .

You can knock me down but . . . . I will never give up

The hardest person in the world to beat is the person who refuses to give up.

When you study the top achievers they all share one common attribute; the attribute of persistence they may adjust . . . . but they never give up.

They will not give up under pressure or when they are facing great obstacles. They will hang in just a little longer.

When the going gets rough they refuse to give up, they just keep pushing forward to achieve their goals.

No matter how many challenges they face, no matter how many times they are knocked down they don't give up, they get up and try again and again until they succeed.

When we're knocked down, refuse to stay down; get up and don't give up.

There motto is you can knock me down but I will never give up.

Perfect Set of Positive Factors for an Economic Boom

Myers Jackson (Real Estate Auctions, Land Auctioneer) — Mon, 30 May 2011 15:05:45 -0700

As we look to a return of a better Real Estate Market there a certain factors that may be in evolution at this entry into summer. Cycles have long been a part of Real Estate and will continue to process as human interventions takes shape. We just cannot total forecast what the human mind will achieve. However positive factors listed by Lori may be a excellent start..

Via Intero Real Estate Services:

The remarkable turbo-charged 2011 economic comeback of U.S. manufacturing is comprised of a perfect storm of positive components:

* Lots of demand in the broad industrial market - utilities, refineries, oil, natural gas, plant expansion and production> Also, increased demand for rental space particularly in the large metropolitan areas has rekindled the high rises.

* An unexpected export surge with a major boom in Southeast Asia - especially China and India. With almost 35% of the world's population, these 2 countries are using trillions of surplus cash to upgrade their living standards. Both American agricultural and consumer products are benefiting.

* A lessening of the margins between overseas manufacturing costs and transportation. By 2015 China's labor cost increases are estimated to add on 20% per annum, while U.S. labor costs will increase no more than 3% annually.

*Increase in inventories. During the Great Recession, many companies used 'just in time' inventories. Now manufacturers and distributors are stocking up.

* International companies like Caterpillar, NCR, General Motors, and others have returned some of their overseas facilities to the U.S. and plan further U.S. expansion.
