We're Back

Well it's been a while and I apologize for being absent. A lot has happened in the past few months. Of course the economy has taken another hit. The real estate market has gone through and survived a very challenging period. We are not out of the woods yet but the spring market has been uplifting to say the least. House prices have fallen and so have interest rates. However interest rates are about to rise slightly but I can't say the same for house prices....yet. The real estate market is busy at the moment. But correct pricing is the most important factor. Pricing your home slightly below market will yield the best selling price. Do not get caught chasing the market downward. If you have the resources and the patience now is a good time to start looking at investing in the real estate market. But be careful the prices may not have bottomed yet. However it is still a very good buyers market with lots of excellent buys compared to a year ago.

One other change, a big one. I have retired from Real Estate after 20 years with Re/Max. I now act in the capacity of client services for my partner Pat and all our past and future clients. This should afford me more time to stay on top of this blog.

Also, I am associated with a company called SendOutCards. More about that in a later post.
