Real estate seems to have been a fickle friend to some of us recently. At one time it was something you could rely on to increase your bottom line and secure your future. Then, suddenly, it wasn’t! Well guess what – NOW is the time to reconsider how you feel about real property as an investment opportunity or as a new home.
You have already heard the advice of real estate professionals, the media and market prognosticators outlining all the signs of the “positive housing market”. Some will feel it is a desperate push to revitalize home sales and get you in before it really bottoms out. Others will realize we don’t know where the bottom is until it’s passed. The signs are here, and the market is moving again. Stand on the side line or get into the game, it’s your choice; but if you are considering a move, what are you waiting for?
You can take advantage of affordable prices resulting from a down market, or use unprecedented incentives being offered in new construction to get the deal of a lifetime. Creative ideas such as buyer-protection warranties provide additional confidence to act now. Besides, historically low interest rates, government programs and first time buyer tax credits will end before you know it. Just remember, as someone once said, “Opportunities are never lost; someone will always take the one you miss!” Ask your qualified real estate professional for more information.
