It's been awhile

Just noticed it's been a few weeks since my last blog entry. Must keep up with this stuff as it's so important to my SEO plans. So, what do I talk about today? So much going on in both my business life and the world.

Health Care just passed. Not to pleased with this bill or how it was accomplished. Seems like the majority of Americans didn't want it, at least that's what numberous polls showed. For our representatives to pass a bill this huge in this way, makes an old veteran sad when we lose a little more of our liberty. We'll see how it all turns out, it's not over yet. Upcoming elections will determine just how accepting the American people are of the party that shoved this through the bill making process.

On a lighter subject, we're working hard on our companies new web site design. I get excited about it when we make progress. Been so busy setting up our new franchises and their agents we havn't been able to spend as much time as we want to on software development. I've done this before with Real Estate Real Easy. Lots of work making sure all the bases are covered will pay off in the end.

The real estate market still seems to be caught in the head lights of a bad economy. Not moving much. I don't care what the news outlets say, we here on the front lines know what's going on. When the government subsidies expire expect the market to almost stop. Pretty soon people will expect government subsidies to be a part of the normal home buying process. Bad road to go down. Lots of bank owned properties. Still not seeing many get to market. Banks are holding off on the actual foreclosure until it's good for them. At some point they will get to market but if they let to many go at once it will have a downward pressure on prices. Best way out would be to let nature take it's course. Once homes drop to low levels there will be plenty of home buyers, as long as they have jobs.

I'm a licensed real estate broker specializing in Alamo, Danville, San Ramon, Walnut Creek and Pleasant Hill. If you are in the market for a home give me a call to discuss the market conditions in these cities. There are some good buys out there. And when you are ready to perform your Alamo home search we'll find just the right home and negotiate the best possible price and terms.

Time to stop blogging and get my blog talk radio show TechCall going. Every Tuesday we discuss issues related to technology in the real estate industry.
