MOVE FAST!!!
The tax credit for first-time buyers has been extended and expanded to current homeowners!
The government has extended the $8000 first-time home-buyer tax credit for buyers who have not owned a home in the previous three years. And homeowners who have been in their house for at least five years may qualify for a $6500 tax credit. And under this program you NEVER have to pay it back! Use the money for improvements to your home, retirement, or whatever you'd like!
BUT YOU HAVE TO CLOSE BY MAY 30 2010!
GET MOVING!!!
Have you been thinking about moving but don't know if the time is right? The opportunity you've been waiting for may be here. Because of low interest rates and government incentives, more potential buyers have been looking around. And since you may qualify for the new $6500 tax credit also, this may be the right time to move on or move up.
Even though you may have to discount your house to sell it, you'll get a greater discount on the house you buy. And if you lose money on the house you sell you may be able to write those losses off on your taxes and put that money in your pocket. The rewards will be much greater on the house you buy, and in the end it will mean more money in your pocket and likely increase your net worth.
Don't let the current housing market stop you in your tracks. Use it for your financial benefit and take advantage of the opportunities that exist for you and your family.
But you won't know if you don't get moving. What's stopping you from putting your house on the market now? If it doesn't sell, it costs you nothing.

A down market is the best time to upgrade to a more valuable home! If the market is down 10% and you sell a $100,000 home, you can expect to get $90,000. But you can expect to pay $180,000 for a $200,000 home. That's a benefit to you of $10,000! Call for more details or see THE BLOG to learn how that savings can grow even more!
MOVE IN!!!
If you're able to invest or buy, this is the perfect environment to look for wealth-building opportunities. The real estate market has not had such value in a long time. The key to financial security is to make purchases that will appreciate over the years and not look for bargains on things that lose their value over time.
The major hurdle lately is financing. There are times when a buyer is qualified, pre-approved and even gets approved for a loan for a specific property, but at closing the lender refuses to fund the loan. The lenders are suffering from their own irresponsibility and now are afraid to loan money to individuals more responsible than they.
There are a few options to avoid nervous lenders. FHA and VA loans are still doing well. local credit unions have money to lend and many regional banks that never got into the sub-prime game are stable, growing and willing to do business with qualified buyers.
There are opportunities for buyers and investors, but help is needed to know where the opportunities are and and how to find them. Call to find out more about these opportunities!

Honesty, Integrity, Patience and Understanding are the qualities people appreciate most in others, and are the qualities you should expect from YOUR agent.
Your agent works for you and should be pleasant to work with, accessible at all times, easy to talk to, willing to LISTEN to you about YOUR needs and never be condescending.
As your agent, I work hard for you and keep you fully informed at all times.

I became a REALTOR because of my own experience with real estate agents. Having been in the military and being an airline pilot I thought I could handle things myself. But after my wife and I started looking at properties we discovered we needed some help, so we enlisted the services of a real estate agent. After we bought our house we felt like no one had our interests in mind, so I went to real estate school to learn more about the process. While there I learned my suspicions were right; although we had an agent, we had been on our own. Originally I didn't think I'd actually pursue a career as a REALTOR, but I've decided I want to help others avoid the experience we had. Now I've made this a profession where you, my client, can be sure someone is on your side. Learn more at my BLOG.
