Kinda About Real Estate

Today my son and his new bride close on their house. If there was ever a sure sign that things are turning around then surely it is this.

How could my baby possibly have accomplished this? In the worse of times, they took a step. When there is no money to lend and fear in everyone's heart about the economy, they persevered with a loan officer. They dug into their pockets to pay off a credit card because it was required. They found a home that had only been on the market 21 days and went through the negotiations like veterans.

How could they possibly have done this?

First they picked an incredible real estate professional. Thank you to all that fit that mold. I know times are tough for many of you, probably all of you here in the state of Florida. If not for the dedication and knowledge like my son's realtor showed him there would be a tougher time for all.

Next, his mortgage loan officer rocks. Hand holding them when I couldn't, educating them when they needed it and keeping them updated. That is a true professional. One on one service made this closing possible.

With the difficulties in the housing market today, the professionals have survived. This is why my son and his wife are able to buy a home today.

Now that the house thing is settled, is there anything you guys can do to convince them it is time for a grand baby?
