Just announced this week, the Air Force has picked Barksdale AFB as the future home for the newly formed Global Strike Command. Barksdale AFB is located in Bossier City in southern Louisiana. Bossier City and Shreveport are two cities that make up one good sized metroplex. The Red River runs between Bossier City and Shreveport. The Global Strike Command will bring temporary jobs now and should bring close to 1,000 permanent jobs to Barksdale Air Force Base. The housing market in Bossier City and Shreveport have remained strong even though most of the rest of the country has seen some decline. Global Strike Command bringing 1,000 jobs to Bossier City will mean that the housing market will see a lot of action as well! Now is a great time to purchase a home near Barksdale Air Force base because interest rates are low. Military personal that are being assigned to the Global Strike Command have a great opportunity to purchase homes in Bossier City and Shreveport with the super low interest rates. It is also a great time for first time home buyers to make that home purchase with the incentive the Government is offering!

Shreveport Louisiana is a large city in Northwest Louisiana. Shreveport and Bossier City are two cities divided by the Red River, so most real estate agents work both large cities. So, what is HOT this summer in Shreveport Louisiana?
1. A fair amount of people are consumed with learning about sub-surface (mineral) rights. The Haynesville Shale was announced to be under all of us here in Shreveport and Bossier City, and land men are all over the place trying to lease sub-surface rights. I have heard of people getting up to $15,000 in bonus money per acre and as little as $250 per acre.
2. The rental business is really heating up. Barksdale AFB looks like it is getting some new units, the workers that will be brought in for all the drilling of gas, and the troubled mortgage market has kept vacancies down and landlord profits up!
3. The purchase of Rental Property are on FIRE. Shrevport and Bossier City are one of the few cities left in America where finding CASH Positive properties is very easy!
4. Friestad Realty is heating up rather quickly! Friestad Realty has just added a property management division and an REO division to keep up with the trends in the real estate market here in Shreveport.

This is the most amazing time to be a home buyer in Shreveport Louisiana.

In the past three weeks, our team has been meeting with different lenders on a daily basis really learning the different programs each lender offers and understanding what is really happening in the mortgage world today. Just recently we met with a few men from Aulds, Horne and White, a local "lender" in the Shreveport area, and learned that they actually are lenders and not just brokers. Wow, we at www.shreveportagents.com were really shocked to hear that they do everything right here in Shreveport Louisiana! Most of the other people we have been meeting with are simply "brokers" and do not lend money on houses. If you did not already know, that means that when something goes wrong with your loan, your purchase, your dream...they get to point the finger to the real lender. What we have heard more than 10 times this year alone is "it is in underwriting". The truth on all those blown deals is that the loan could not get approved and it is easy to point the finger at "underwriting" instead of tell the agent and the client the truth.
This is a great time to buy a home in Shreveport and Bossier City Louisiana. Rates are low, prices are stable, time on market has been getting longer and the number of houses on the market seem to be growing. Take advantage of the market conditions and contact one of well trained team members at www.shreveportagents.com today.
