Finally!!!! Just within the past 7 days, I've had to go back to Buyers and tell them 2 of the homes they wanted to see are not available - they have a MEETING OF THE MINDS!!!!!!!
Yes Indeed!!!!!!
Then, I had a Buyer I had to go back to and tell her we suddenly were not the only Buyer for what she wanted and they were going to go for Highest and Best Offers to have the seller make a decision!!!
The Market IS ALIVE and WELL?!?!!? Course that all depends on which side of the fence you are sitting on!!! In reality, it's good for everyone to finally see!!!
Despite all the Gloom and Doom of the News Media, people are Selling and Buyers are Buying... Buyers will now have to get a little more aggressive if they want a Property and not "assume" it will still be there tomorrow... it may not be!
The selections are the best ever and the price of money is soooo incredibly cheap!!! I remember buying a house in the 80's at 18%.... by today's standards, the rates now are basically free Money...... especially after using the Tax advantages of the interest!!

You blog was very insightful. It's good to finally hear someone say that the market is OK. The media makes it seem as if the market is going down the drain.
The media is doing our clients a grave disservice; my most recent transaction was a multiple offer one. And over the weekend, I had to tell two clients the houses in which they were interested were under contract, after only a few days on market. The key is still location and price, but when a smart seller puts a property on the market at the right price, buyers will snap it up. They ARE buying!
Hey Bernie, I can feel your excitement through your blog. Best of luck to you.
You mean Spring is going to spring?
