I was listening to CNN Morning Express this morning and they mentioned an article in the New York Times that is getting a lot of attention. In the article (click on the following link), the author discusses reasons why first time home buyers and investors should seriously consider buying a home now or risk regret later.
"Five to 10 years from now, when the financial crisis has ended and housing prices are up smartly once more, we will look in the rearview mirror and realize that we missed a golden age for first-time home buyers. Then, everyone who sat on their down payment savings accounts for a few years too long will kick themselves for not taking advantage of what may turn ort to be the buying opportunity of a lifetime for those who can qualify for a mortgage."
This may be a great article to share with your potential buyers to help them get off the fence. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/12/06/business/yourmoney/06money.html?_r=1&sq=buy%20a%20home&st=cse&scp=2&pagewanted=print
Last night I was checking my Facebook (yes, I am admittedly addicted), and a number of my friends were busy writing and negotiating contracts. Teresa Wolfe, a KW agent, who I spoke to this morning, said that they turned in 8 contracts this week. The agents who are, and have been, actively lead generating are suddenly finding themselves very busy. If you are not finding opportunities right now, I urge you to schedule a free consulting appointment with me – as soon as possible. Together, we will work on a business plan to help you take your business where you want it to go. My mission is to have a house full of people who are earning enough money to fund their "big why".
