Instead of promoting gloom, death and destruction for the lending and real estate communities, Tucson's Arizona Daily Star Sunday edition led with an above-the-fold title that could just as well been the lead for the National Association of Realtors publication or that of the Arizona Association of Mortgage Brokers!
Paul Slaybaugh, new moderator for Active Rain Addicts, a blog group of the Active Rain Real Estate Network, wrote recently about the challenge in market conditions.
Here's what he said: "Buyers have waited 15 years for the current market conditions, with low interest rates, sagging prices and plentiful inventory. Now that the conditions are ripe for buyers, however, they are afraid to take the plunge. Media, friends, family, the plumber, and the plumber's dog are all telling them that they should wait. I fear that many of these buyers will miss the boat by waiting for the media to flash the klieg light announcing "We have hit bottom! Go buy a house now!" Much like the sellers from a couple of years ago who held on too long, they risk waiting themselves right out of opportune conditions by trying to wring every last price drop out of the market."
Tucson has all the things Paul talks about in that paragraph above.
- Low interest rates
- Attractive prices in many segments of the market
- Great inventory!
- and Buyer Fear
