Much has been said about the Real Estate market lately.
Buyers are asking is now the time to buy or should I wait? The media's main focus has been for the past year telling people not to buy which has caused the market to turn into a buyers market. Great news for a buyer because you are controlling the market There are plenty of foreclosure properties to chose from along with many existing homes. Builders are very anxious to also sell off their existing inventory.
If you wait for the media to say that it is ok to buy a house it might be too late.
In a recent seminar that I attended the speaker mentioned how a few years ago Donald Trump wasn't buying any Real Estate and that he actually has started buying it recently. Some of you may not care for Donald Trump but my personal perspective that man is a self made millionaire and he got there by buying and selling Real Estate at the right time.
Here in Jacksonville, Florida, the prices of homes are still a great value and we are very fortunate to be surrounded by 3 military bases, NAS Jax, Camp Blanding and Mayport. The military is great for the local economy and having lived in Orange Park/Jacksonville and Middleburg area for the past 15 years, I have seen some members of the military retire and move back to this area because of the location, schools and small town atmosphere.
In closing, if you are thinking of buying and think that if you wait until next year, you might want to rethink that decision. If you wait to long the market will turn back into a "sellers market" and you will have missed your opportunity to get a "great deal"
