Reasons To Buy Now

Since too many agents don't know why now is a great time to rell their buyers to buy let's help them out and share

some ideas:

I'll start:

1. There are plenty of choices out there.

2. The cost of money is still cheap.

3. The loan program available to the buyer today may not be there a couple of months from now.

4. Sellers are competing for YOU the buyer.

5. Concessions, seller concessions, lender concessions all add up to a good opportunity.

6. The rental market is pro-landlord. Great investment time.

7. Monte Hall...... Let's Make A Deal.... great prices.

8. It is a Huge Mark-down Sale.

Looking forward to more.

Thanks for sharing.

Jim

Now is a great time to buy and I like your list. It has a lot of great reasons. People have to get bored of waiting soon. October was a busy month but it seems to have slowed down again. I'm waiting for those buyers to come out of hiding. There are oodles of great deals out there right now, I want to sell them to someone!

It is a GREAT time to buy! I especially like 4. Sellers are competing for YOU the buyer. If that is not motivating...nothing is. GBU!!

Jim, I have a listing that did not have a wow factor and now my seller is putting an entirely new kitchen with maple and granite. It really is a great time for the buyers.

If it is not a Sellers Market, it is a Buyers Market. Buyers are just gun shy because of shifting lending laws.

I love #7 the Monty Hall.... Let's make a deal! Never heard it put that way before. I think most of us are preaching all those things you listed, it's just that our message is being lost in all the media doom and gloom.
