The Calm after the Storm!

By
Real Estate Agent with The Morse Company 2645

The tax credit season is over!  Did it's increased activity create some confidence in the local market or will sales dry up!

The next 60 days will still have a lot of closings created by the Buyer Tax Credits.  However, the next 60 days will tell the story by how many new offers get accepted after April 30.

My guess is that the activity will taper off, but hopefully some serious buyers will perist.  There are no current plans for new incentives by the government.  But, if I had to make a prediction, it will be that if the market falls greatly, the administration and Congress will look at new incentives just before the fall elections!

Stay tuned!

Prices are so low someone will buy anyway if the buyer who bought their home used the tax credit and now they need a place to downsize or retire,etc.  The tax credit lot wrere more in the first time homebuyer price range.  What we need is a tax credit on bigger homes so we don't have to sell so many to make a living and more agents would benefit thatn just the few who are rounding up all the bank owned's like hoarders.

I think it's still a great time for someone to buy a home, interest rates are low and there are some incredibly priced houses available.
