Will Last Nights Presidential Debates have any affect on Real Estate?

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Godzyk Real Estate Services NH License 033394

What affect will last nights Presidential Debates have on the Real Estate Market? Well, perhaps none... However consumer confidence sure will, and hope is what many consumers are looking for. CNN may have blown an opportunity to have the candidates answer thoughtful questions of what the American public wants to hear. No one, except for CNN and maybe Hillary wanted to hear an hour of loaded questions trying to get the candidate's to attack each other, bicker and well act worse than children. 

 

What do the debates have to do with Real Estate you ask? Many home buyers and sellers ask what the future of the Real Estate Market will be? Although the Real Estate Market has recovered, many home owners are waiting before looking to find that bigger home. Consumer confidence is low with how beat up the middle class has been the last 7 years. Consumers who are voters are fed up with what they see in Washington. The next president will have the task of rescuing the American dream. They have real questions, real concerns and want real answers. 

 

On the Buying end though, with some of the lowest interest rates ever, buyers are looking to take advantage of them and buy now. They are ready, willing and able to buy their dream home. Those Home Owners who have listed with me, are very happy with the price and quick sale they get. 

 

The BOTTOM LINE is that no one in politics or business wants to hear about how bad the other "guy or girl" is. They want to know what can you do? What will you do? How can you make it succeed?

 

The BEST way to go about any home sale or purchase is to know that the consumer should not choose just any agent, choose the BEST agent for the job. My philosophy is simple, provide more personal and professional service to guide my clients through each step of the buying or selling process. All Agents are not created equal and every buyer or seller should take the time to hire the BEST not just the biggest. By using a philosophy, which is simple, to provide more personal and professional service to guide my clients through each step of the buying or selling process, I can help you find your dream home

The hard truth is that Buying or Selling a home can go as good as the agent you hire. 

 

If you are Buying or Selling a home, you need an agent who will work with you, look out for you and guide you through each step of the Buying and Selling process. Buyers and Sellers should know that they have a choice of agents. Use your choice to hire the BEST agent in your area, and know that bigger is not better. 

 

I have put together a simple recipe for both Home Buyers and Sellers. Follow this along with pricing your home right, and the result can be a SOLD SIGN in your front yard.

 

 

THE TOP TIPS TO FIND A "GREAT" REAL ESTATE AGENT

 

 1. LEARN THIS ONE FACT: One should know that All Agents are not created equal and every buyer or seller should take the time to hire the BEST not just the biggest Agent or Company. It is important to Hire the BEST Agent. In NH that could be me.   

2. CHOOSE THE RIGHT AGENT: As a Buyer OR Seller in this market you need every advantage you can to get your home sold. It starts with choosing the right agent. a. Ask for a Full time agent whose sole job is to sell homes. b. Ask for a Full service agent who will guide you through each step of the selling process. Discount brokers often equal discount services. c. Ask for a Local agent who knows your neighborhood and is readily available when you need them is a must. Out of town agents can leave you high and dry in your time of need. d. Ask for a well experienced Listing Agent can give you the advantages you need when selling your home. Not all agents are created equal. Choose only the best.  

 3. HOME BUYERS SHOULD START BY:  Getting a FREE PRE-QUALIFICATION with a local and trusted lender. They will look at your credit and financial picture and let you know what type of mortgage you may qualify for and what your interest rate and monthly payment may be.   

4. HOME SELLERS SHOULD START BY: Getting a FREE MARKET ANALYSIS. Learn what your property is worth in today's market along with how ling it may take to sell. If you are ready to sell now, learn what you should ask for it. How much offers may come in at and what the approximate selling price should be. NH Home owners should contact me now.   

 

 

IN SUMMARY the key to having a successful purchase or sale can increase simply choosing a better agent. The secret is that All Agents are not created equal and every buyer or seller should take the time to hire the BEST not just the biggest. I leave you with now infamous philosophy, which is simple, to provide more personal and professional service to guide my clients through each step of the buying or selling process.

 

 

It does not take magic to turn your "For Sale" sign into a "Sold" sign. it takes a full time Local Agent who specializes in Listing homes like yours.

Didn't see it but have seen snippets. It doesn't resemble the debates of years past. We have another year to go.

We have about 5 months Debbie Reynolds for our NH primary, then a good half of the candidates will be gone. Things are going to get pretty crazy here soon with all the candidates and media converging on us

Good Morning Scott Godzyk 

Good question. Sometimes I wish I had a crystal ball. I'd say CNN did a better job, overall, than the Howdy Doody, Clarabelle & Cowboy Bob debate.

Doug Dawes i didnt like how they spent so much time on "hear say" and getting them to butt heads. I wanted more substance, less bickering.

Scott I highly  doubt a debate will have any effect on the real estate market.  It's way to early in the process for big shifts except for those in the media and pollsters. Granted - I did not watch it, only snippets on the morning news. Glad I missed it.

Hi Scott - I do remember times when it seemed to matter, but it has been ages since any of our clients suggested that politics, as opposed to actual government policy, had any consideration in their plans. And this is all pure politics.

Scott - I watched the debates last night, and I agree 100% with your paragraph, "The BOTTOM LINE is that no one in politics or business wants to hear about how bad the other "guy or girl" is. They want to know what can you do? What will you do? How can you make it succeed?"

This year's GOP field is certainly entertaining, they are a little frightening when we come to understand what politics in this country has come to!  Egos and Special Interests are more important than coming together with real solutions for the betterment of this country.

As for whether the debates have any affect on real estate. . .It's too early to tell!

Entertaining, to say the least Scott Godzyk.  Although I think the debate revealed much, it really didn't reveal much of anyone's actual policies.  How any of them would impact our industry remains much a mystery ...

I don't think so Scott, it is too big (real estate) and people who are planning ny buying or selling will move ahead.

Hi Scott Godzyk ,  So far, they are too busy talking about themselves and not about the issues, so it will be a wait and see.

I've heard some rumblings about the debate but I did not see it. I have no tolerance for people behaving badly.

Regardless of their political persuasions, smart home buyers are taking advantage of the very low mortgage interest rates that are available now and may not be available in the future.
