...and it was very interesting what Mr. Yun had to say. He reviewed the national market trends in real estate, mainly in the residential sales pricing area. Also highlighted NYS statistics. Many economists predict that the housing market hasn't hit the bottom yet, but will do so sometime between now and the end of 2009 and in fact, many predict an upward swing in the market in early 2009. So buyers who are out there trying to 'time the market?" NOW is the time to make your offer...if you wait until Spring 2009, you may be too late! Want to know more? Just email me...

I am just back from the state REALTOR meetings in Saratoga NY. What a lovely week - sunny, pleasant. I had the most delicious caramel gelato there...even tho it was $4.85 for a small cone! Lots of real estate tips and insights from these meetings. While they are really business meeting of the NYS Association of REALTORS, there is much to be learned from peer discussions. I am proud to say that I have been voted in as Regional Vice President for the Southern Tier Region for 2009-2010!!! This covers the Ithaca, Cortland, Binghamton, Elmira-Corning and Otsego-Delaware boards of REALTORS. I am looking forward to meeting with my colleagues from other neighboring boards to learn about their issues and priorities for 2009 and beyond! In the meantime, I am back in Ithaca helping buyers and sellers with their moves.

I have been too busy selling real estate evidently to log back into Active Rain. I do enjoy getting the email updates with tips about how to use active rain and the network of real estate professionals.

 

Looking forward to being in Las Vegas tonight. Still wondering if anyone has any favorite restaurants with a pan-asian cuisine to recommend?

I can see why this site is addictive!  I just posted some nice photos of Ithaca NY and surrounding areas...check it out on localism.com!

Hi there fellow agents, consumers and websurfers!  One week and counting - I am headed to Las Vegas for the NAR convention. Should be a fun time!
