"Where have you been?"; asks one fellow Active Rain member.  Yes It's quite obvious I have not been posting much in the past few weeks.  Why you ask?  Because I have been VERY busy! 

Many Realtors see summer as a slow time of the year.  A time for vacation and working 1/2 days.  A time when less Buyers are buying and fewer sellers are selling -- well that may not be the case now - there are plenty of listings to keep Realtors busy; but with no buyers; what is one to do?

Well I have not been on vacation; I have been selling!  In the past week I have ratified 2 new buyer contracts; taken 2 new listings and wrote a lease on a rental property I have listed.  Plus several other buyers I have spoken with and begun the home search process with.

Summer may mean less buyers; but it can also be a great time for buyers to get a deal.  With so much inventory and those homes that are on the market getting fewer and fewer showings; the serious sellers will and do drop their price.

That is just what the serious buyer is waiting for...

So here's to a successful summer!  It may be all work and little play - but don't worry; I have some nice vacations planned for when the colder weather heads to our Nations Capitol!
