I am still thinking positive on the market. I know that the news isn't always so great, but I still think it will get better. After all, could it get much worse? Did I say that? OMG! :-P
It does seem that since the first of the year, I have gotten busier with phone calls, emails, etc. I am working on an offer and have some appointments scheduled. So......As I said....Things are looking up for 2011 in Real Estate. I refuse to think differently.
It has been stated that:
*Homes are more affordable than they have been in a generation due to low rates and lower housing prices.
*The economy is improving and jobs are being created, unlike the precious three years. As the economy improves, household formulation will rise as well.
*While credit standards are tight, we have probably reached the height of the credit cycle and as real estate recovers, banks will be more anxious to lend. Alno9ng the same lines, as rates have crept up, refinances are down and that means banks will be competing for a smaller market share of home loans.
*The population is growing. We are now over 300 million. These people need to live somewhere. Even those who are foreclosed upon will need to live somewhere-and not necessarily in an apartment.
These are the positive words that I stick to like glue!!!!
