A GREAT DAY IN BRANDON REAL ESTATE MARKET!!

Good Morning and Welcome to my Blog!! Today is a fantastic day in real estate! Why? Because prices are down, bargains are up and interest rates at at all time lows!! What more could you ask for if you were buying a home?

January is ALWAYS the BEST TIME to purchase a home. The reason is that there tend to be less buyers at this time of year and sellers are more willing to wheel and deal. This is the time to GET OFF THE FENCE and begin your home seach in earnest. No one knows how long these deals will last, but for those of us who studied economics understand the following simple truth.....supply and demand determine price. So, if supply is up (right now) and demand is down (less buyers) then price will go down!! As we near March, buyers will begin to come out of the woodwork and sellers will be more firm in their prices. This simple truth, if understood, can be capitalised upon by savvy buyers. So, if you think you might be in the market for a home, whether first time homebuyer or investment home or dream home, NOW is the Time. Do not wait to see when the market will bottom out, because you will never know if it reaches the bottom until it begins to rise!! Then its too late and your great deal was missed.

Use the services of a professional realtor who can negotiate a fantastic deal for you right now.

How right you are! The true investors that are coming out of hiding right now. They recognize that you need to buy low and hold, not sit back and watch and wait!

Welcome to ActiveRain, Kathie, from a fellow KW agent in Las Vegas. Good point about basic supply and demand this time of year. Coupled with yesterday's rate cut, that presents some great opportunities for buyers who can act now.
