Owner financing, a way to move property.

Creativity in today's market demands our constant attention. Naples Florida, though coming out of the real estate slump, still has a ways to go before we start seeing the activity of 2003. I have been given the opportunity to market some wonderful properties and have been thinking back to years ago when I last lived through a similar market, to dig up some ideas for getting the job done in todays market. While we didn't have Short Sales back then, we did have owner financing. If your seller is in a position to do so, owner financing can not only get the property sold but also give them more in interest than they will likely get in any bank. Real estate is and always will be a good investment, it's the holding time that needs to be remembered. We fell into the trap of thinking real estate is a short term investment when in reality, it was never intended to be such. Here in Naples we have had double digit appreciation for many years running, until the market tanked. We will see those numbers again, it is just a matter of time.

Talk to your sellers and buyers about the opportunity to think out of the box to get the job done today!
