buying: Buyers Need to go in Strong - 05/06/10 05:29 PM
Buyers looking to make an offer on a property under $500,000 here in Boca Raton, Florida need to go in strong as there is alot of competition for these properties.  Now that the tax credit is over we might see less activity on some of these but I think you are still going to see multiple offers on the nicer ones.
The sellers are really enjoying this since its been awhile.  Go in strong and negotiate wisely or you may lose out.

Boca Raton, Florida is packed with people enjoying their time off for the holidays and spring break. The beaches will be packed this weekend as well as the restaurants and other popular activities. 
The City will start to change next week as the winter residents will continue to return to their summer homes but I expect many people to continue to search for their dream properties and take advantage of the great buyer's market.  My busiest months are always June and July as many buyers love to buy during these months.  Have a great holiday weekend.

As we enter the last part of the high season now is the time to get your property sold! The town is packed with buyers and many of them are scooping up the better properties.

buying: Do the Opposite of What Everyone Else is Doing - 02/22/10 12:56 PM
Talk to anyone who has ever made any money in real estate and they will all tell you the same thing. Do the opposite of what everybody else is doing. Buy when everyone else is selling. 
This sounds so simple but most people don't have the strength to do it.  That's why only the select few make money.
