Ypsilanti, MI

I remember the day like yesterday....hell all of us remember that day. It was like a left hook coming out of no where. At first I thought was a joke...someone just pulling somebody's leg. Once the news broke and journalist reported that we have been attacked by terrorist....it became reality.

I really didn't know what to think but after i saw people jumping from buildings and the towers collapsing...I felt like i was in a movie. This really can't be happening..not us..not USA..the greatest country in the world.....those were my thoughts at the time. That day I thought it would continue; didn't know whether or not if the bombing would go on or what city would next. Like other Americans I was scared and afraid that something else would happen.

Though like the Americans we are...we stood up to the challenge....we lost soooo many people; I have no clue of how they felt...but I empathize with them. We overcame, we let go of our stupid pride and ethnic background and came together. And here we are today with troops overseas protecting us from an event like we had to not happen again. No we won't forget...like Pearl Harbour...we won't forget....like the Oklahoma bombing...we won't forget and the bombing at the 96 Olympics....we won't forget....we remember those we lost...we move on and become stronger....So on today ..it's not about real estate or appraisals or lenders or title companies.. forget about yourself and remember the lives that were lost and thank the soldiers keeping us safe to live our lives.

As I was driving preveiwing properties for clients. I've notice that there are quite a number of fsbo's on the market. The more I saw the more I thought. Are they really saving money? I know they want the most out of their home. Are they realistic with the price and current market conditions in the area? Do they know the percentage of buyers looking in that price range? A lot to think about. I think they don't have a clue. So who is calling them to see their homes? Whose stopping by to look? Who is thinking about putting an offer in? I know it's not the buyers Realtors work with....maybe but not often. I wonder if the seller have a loan officer to pre approved the buyer before they make an offer or find out if they can be financed? How about getting creative? Have they thought about land contract? Probably not. Since everyone is one the internet looking for homes from various websites. What website(s) are they viewing yours from? What will happen if they can't sell their home? Will they be able to lease? Are they able to help a buyer with closing costs? Are they looking to buy a home themselves? Don't know...maybe. I wonder if I had a buyer will they cooperate with my broker? I wonder if I had the listing will they pay me a full commission? Hmmm how motivated are they? Do they have legal protection if something were to go wrong during or after the transaction occurs...don't know. Well only way to find out. I give them a call. Yeah that's what I do.

Ypsilanti homebuyers/shoppers...School is almost back in. Can't believe that time went by so quick. Well for me it's because I've been in school the whole time. Well we College students returning and some beginning. I remember it was fun and exciting me. Looking for great deals on rentals whether it was condo or a house and even apartments. Though some love the experience of campus life.

Though we don't have long. Now time is approaching on the deadline on the homebuyer tax credit. Want to help your kids out with tuition or books and supplies? Think about this. The tax credit is designed for time homebuyers and since your parents may not qualify....doesn't mean the kids and become recipients of it. To the parents you can buy your daughter or son a condo or a small house and their name can be on the title which can entitle them to a $8,000 dollar tax credit. Check with a local title company to learn about the details. Wonder what that money can do. That pays for at least 2 semesters without financial aid or you save $8,000 in your pocket. Sounds good right.

This would be a good way to start off a good school year. So let's think logic, economics, a little accounting, some phsycology, and of course business. Make a good and smart investment..kids will thank you later...and you will thank yourself.
