On a consistent basis I will run into people I know, and the most frequent question I receive is "How is the market in Tulsa? Well it depends on who you talk to. Some are reaping the benefits of the flood of properties in my area. Others are saddened that their home is not worth what they assumed it would be. Homes are selling at a slower pace, but they do sell. Buyers want a deal. I have received several calls about wanting a $200,000 house for $100,000, because that is OBVIOUSLY what the seller would take to get out of the house.(NOT) Some assume that we have these lists of homes that are selling for a 1/4 of what they are worth. Yes you may get a deal but do not take advantage of someones situation to make a profit. It may be strange to hear that, but when I see a seller cry because they are upside down in a home they love, but are forced to sell, I cannot help but get a little mad when a buyer comes in with an offer half of the listing price with, closing paid by seller, and appliances stay. Are you kidding me??? Do some people not realize how their actions affect others??? In this profession I do not expect to work with sharks. We are professionals, we know right from wrong, and we are in this field to provide for our families, but we also love that we help singles, couples, and families, change their lives, the excitement of a child picking out their own room. That is a bonus!!! Yes this is a buyers market, that is what I can say.
