When I first heard about Active Rain and blogging I thought I would blog right away and on a regular basis. I hit the blocks running and ...then...phew....that was it. So, here is my attempt to get through the blog clog and flow once again. I am sitting in our office on the Plaza in Sonoma, CA watching the cars and people go by. Even though it is somewhat chilly the door is ajar to invite all the home buyers into the office. Any second now they will all come pouring in and I'll have to abruptly end this blog. There are actually some great deals to be had on Sonoma homes, but the buyers have gone underground. I don't blame them for being cautious, but they have so much power right now.
I was on the other side of the equation when I was a buyer in 1998 here in Sonoma. My husband and I started looking for a home in April of 1998. Each time we found something relatively in our price range and acceptable we had to put an offer on it the same day. We lost 3 homes to overbidders and finally ended up getting our house in December of 1998. We were lucky because it had just had a price reduction and fallen out of escrow that day. Wouldn't it be nice to have been a Realtor back then. ...Pause for daydreaming...
So anyway. buyers who would like to live in Sonoma, come have a look now. Once things start rolling again you won't have the power that you do now.
