Right NOW, Southwest Florida is the BEST place to buy a home in the olde US of A!

Okay so you're all sure I've finally lost it, right. Well actually it's too late for that, but that's another story.

I know you've been watching CNN, constantly negative news, and listening to the national media. The markets a mess, Naples won't recover for 30 years.

Ya, right

Where do they get this stuff?

Here's one of real estates oldest adages. It's been around forever, it's no secret.

BUY LOW

SELL HIGH

Anyone listening out there?

You betcha there is.

I'll tell you a secret, but please keep it to yourself. This is the LOW time.

I'm a mortgage guy and in 2009 my biggest competitor was

CASH; DINERO; MOOLA; $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

The top producers I do business with were telling me that 90% of their business was CASH. That means that out of all the investments available many individuals were making the decision to invest their hard earned money in Southwest Florida real estate. That speaks for itself. You know

Money talks...well you know the rest

At the end of 2010 I was told the average was 65% cash purchases. Still very impressive.

Think about this

Everyone wants to go to heaven, but no one wants to die

I'll be reopening membership in the Coulda/Shoulda Club tomorrow. I coulda bought when the market was low. I SHOULDA bought when the market was low.

For years families looked at the soaring prices believing that they would never be able to buy a home. Well

Now's the time!

If you can't afford that home now, you never will, since in many cases it costs more to rent, than to buy a home!

For all of you snowbirds, getting pounded with the white stuff, as I write, come on down. Try out this forecast

Sat. 72 degrees, Sun 75; Mon 77; Tues (February 1st) 79; Wed, (are you ready for this) 81 big ones

Beach Time; lounge by the pool; play some golf; whatever rocks your boat.

Buyers are doing cartwheels as they leave the closings.

I was just going to ignore the investors, because frankly they're already here. Ya, they're the ones walking around with those silly grins on their faces, and $$$$$ falling out of their pockets.

THIS IS IT; No doubt about it.

RIGHT NOW, Southwest Florida is the BEST place to buy a home!
