With all the rough news we hear about in the media on a daily basis, it is reassuring to know that this downturn in the market has not effected most areas of the country. There is a saying in real estate that all real estate is local. Truer words could not be spoken! Though I do empathize with the folks in southern California and Florida who have been most effected, the market in most of the rest of the country is stable. What you hear about a market like Naples, Florida does not hold true for the Nashville, Tennessee market. I use these vastly different markets to illustrate that real estate is local. If you are looking to buy your piece of the American dream then now is the time. There is an abundance of properties that are priced to sell. Interest rates, though they did begin to climb last week, remain at record lows.
