Now is the Time to Buy Real Estate in Cape Coral

You Can't Judge a Book By It's Cover...$120,000 List Price

I was previewing a townhome in a gated community for one of my clients yesterday and was amazed by 2 things.

1. How many excellent opportunities there are for buyers.  Those that don't act now will probably wish they did in the future.  The townhome I viewed was in great condition and was LISTED for less than its replacement cost.  I emphasize 'listed' because there's a great chance it can be purchased for less...if not much less than the list price. Anytime you can buy properties for less than the replacement cost, you know you are buying right.
2. Like many things in life, you can't judge a book by it's cover.  This short sale property was listed in the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) with a single picture of the front.  That's all the listing agent provided....what a disservice!!! Consider your perception of the property with just a single frontal photo vs. the frontal photo and all of the attached interior photos which I took???

There are great opportunities out there so be careful not to prejudge based off the lack of quality and / or number of photos taken by the listing agent. Make sure you're working with a buyer's agent who's looking out for your best interest to find the best deals out there.
