Many here on Active Rain must have realized that I have not been Blogging much recently.  I have also been taking care of my health...losing weight 30 pounds, and getting in shape.  TI was also busy because I was actually busy closing real estate deals for a change.  We have several more closings on the books which is a great thing in this market.  Our deals these days are mostly buyers that are mostly Internet related deals, and a few from Active Rain! 

My favorite line is from the Sapranos when Carmella asks Tony to do something for her, and his response is "You know it's the busy season!"  No one knows exactly why Tony was busy, or what he was doing, but for me it was just real estate.  Never-the-less it is the busy season.  In real estate we used to have a very marked and pronounced season for sales, that is no longer true.  Relocations, and home sales at the end of the school year seem to be just a memory of years gone past.  This year we are seeing a few select relocations of choice, and first time home buyers that want genuine advice to guide them through the maze of possibilities.

Whatever the reason for buying a home, it is a great time to buy.  Sellers are willing to negotiate, and rates are still fantastic.
