Military Relo Pensacola

By
Real Estate Agent with Sun State Realty

NAS, WHITING, SAUFLEY FIELD.......PENSACOLA, MILTON, PACE.....GULF BREEZE.......YOU COULD NOT HAVE PICKED A BETTER TIME......today it is 70 degrees and it is only going to get better....Pensacola Beach is gorgeous this time of the year !North Florida has it all the grace and beauty of the south but at the same time the beach is only minutes away.........

 Regardless of what you read or hear on the news there are LOANS AVAILABLE...... THE OPPORTUNITY to find great homes at BARGAIN prices is HERE AND NOW........The SELECTION IS FABULOUS... SHORT SALES..FORECLOSURES.....OUR MARKET HAS IT ALL..... but this type of purchase can be a mine field and you definitely need a guide who has done it before. Many of these sales take time. You must ask yourself do I have the time and patience for this process? Please be prepared to wait two months or more and know from the get go that there is always a chance of not having your offer accepted. Another consideration is many of these sales are "AS IS" .......That does not ALWAYS mean a house is in disrepair but you must really do your homework. Home inspections are a must. But if can find a home in good condition or with minimal repair you can buy with built in equity.

BEING WITH THE MILITARY OF WITH A COMPANY WHO IS DETERMINED TO RELOCATE YOU IN 3 -5 YEARS  YOU MUST THINK ABOUT RESALE............ 

In September there were around 6700 homes for sale in the Escambia / Santa Rosa Area. 350 Homes actually sold. Put it another way for ever successful home buyer there were 17  homes for them to choose from. Those are great odds. That means the buyer is in the drivers seat. Many home sellers are getting into reality and realizing this a PRICE WAR AND A BEAUTY CONTEST.........PRICE CAN OVER COME CONDITION BUT CONDITION CANNOT OVER COME PRICE........

What does this mean to you the buyer ? It means prices are coming down. And sellers are putting their homes into better condition before they even hit the market. With the tremendous number of homes on the market it is smart to prioritize your wants and needs......You can spend so much time just looking. When you interview a Realtor ask how will you streamline the process. A really good Realtor will assess your needs and do the research so you can minimize the time it takes to find your new home...
