Seems topics of interest are overworked, as responses are far and few. But, news is that even little town Prescott Az is starting to feel signs of revival. Bank owned properties are drawing prices down. Sellers are resisting by removing their property from the market. Thus, inventory is dropping. So, the spiral of downward values will continue for a while. Higher valued properties over $500000 are beginning to move as money seems to be creeping back into the market place. All in all, the market should fare better in 2010 than 2009. About time, don't you think? i'd love to hear how your market is doing.

take care,

I'm seeking some advise as to the success or failure from those who have tried these in the past. I have good presentation, that is not my concern. I'm curious to know if there is much public interest in such matters. It seems to me that the market is changing enough that buyers may be looking to enter back into the buying mode. And sellers need all the help they can get. How have you reached them sucessfully. I have lender and title support for this and would appreciate any guidance you might have.

Cheers!

Have you noticed the increase in creative financing? It is starting to show up more and more as the sellers realize they're not getting the equity they thought they had. As more buyers lose a home or are forced into short sale situations and can no longer qualify for a normal purchase loan, the demand for seller financing increases. The lenders are limited by what they can use for guidelines by their investors. Hard working loan reps are in a pickle, Realtors are in a pickle, buyers and sellers are, too. As good markets didn't require agents to be knowledgeable in seller financing it was rarely used. So many agents currently active never learned how to sell in hard markets. Seller financing was one of the few avenues available in the early eighties when rates were 19-21%. I sold a few then, but only with seller financing. I also was fortunate enough to buy several in the same way...seller financing.
Dear friends, that kind of market is here again.If you want to discover new ways to sell your listings, learn about the different ways of seller financing. Even lease agreements for sale are viable options now. Many buyers, sellers, and agents need to understand that waiting on someone else (the government for one) is not the solution to a housing recovery, but good ole American ingenuity and resolve. Learn from the veteran brokers and agents, have discussion with your sellers about alternative ways to sell. There are more capable buyers out there that just the buyer seeking bank repos.
Seller financing will bring these buyers back into the market place.
Dear agents, it starts with you and me. More sales builds confidence. Lack of confidence creates fear, our biggest enemy to a healthy housing market and economy.
