Real Estate Buyers Have an Advantage, BUT.....

The real estate market continues to show signs of improvement in the Tacoma and surrounding areas. With pending sales on the rise for the 6th straight month, and more sales since July of 2007, it appears things are changing.

It is important to note that the real estate market is always good for someone, whether buyers, sellers, or investors; someone always has an advantage.

Right now buyers have an advantage in negotiations, but the advantage buyers had just a few months ago is sliming down.

"We are seeing multiple offer situations again, especially on homes listed under $250,000" says Brian Solinsky, Keller Williams real estate specialist.

Buyers are on the verge of losing their advantage and sellers are able to be more firm with price and terms as the market shows signs of balancing.

With the termination of the first-time homebuyers tax credit set for Decemeber 1st, 2009, now is the time to buy.

Contact a real estate professional to take advantage of the current market before it's too late.
