Increased activity in Maryland!!

To the folks in Montgomery County, Md that may be thinking of selling. I don't want you all to have any false hopes. The market is tough. There is a lot of inventory and the buyers are looking for a deal. But I took about 7 groups of buyers out over the weekend of 3/8 - 3/9 and while I had clients in the various houses, other agents brought buyers in to see the house also while we were there. We weren't seeing dust on the door knob. We were trying to get in before the other people got in to see the house. So there we were, much like times past, tripping over each other politely. I was excited, because what better sign of increased activity could there be? I went to one open house with clients and while I was there , I am sure there were 25 other people walking through!!! What memories it brought back. Oh how I long for the days when you could put a listing on and in 5 minutes have a couple agents call to say they wanted to show the house. FHA maximum amounts going up is not going to hurt either.

What the homeowners have to realize is the mainstream media is doomsaying as usual. Things are going to be tough, but contact an experienced realtor to guide you through the process of either buying or selling. You will most likely get the truth. I would be happy to let you know my experiences. All the best!
