The Market is the MARKET!

We all know what happened in the real estate business 4 - 6 years ago. If you could sneeze you could buy for salesell a house. Airports were asking to see your real estate license, it was easier to get than a drivers license in California.

So is this a BAD Market? Nope, the market is the market. It's either a Buyer's market or a Seller's market, neither are good or bad, they just are.

First I get confused so here is the simple version

Seller's Market -- houses are selling Quick, Usually multiple offers, over asking, buyers are paying seller fees as concesseions, seller's are in the driver's seat. MOST buyer's BUY in a SELLER'S MARKET.

Buyer's Market --- Houses are taking longer to sell, amazingly rare for CA until 18 months ago. Buyers are asking for concessions, buyers are getting closing costs paid by the seller. Few Buyers actually BUY in a BUYER'S Market. Sellers don't WANT to sell in a Seller's market unless they have to.

So- while we are still in a Buyer's Market - why aren't you buying? Find a successful investor, find out what they are doing - they are buying especially in the Central Valley of CA, Tracy, Mountain House, parts of Nevada, etc. WHY - prices are at record LOWS!

Hurry build your wealth - buy a house while it's still a BUYER's Market!
