I wanted to pass on the information for an Art Show in North Beach, Maryland. What better way to spend the day than walk along the boardwalk in North Beach, visit the Antiques Shops and Art Gallaries in this quaint bayside village.
Artworks is a fun gallery with a variety of artwork. It's a cooperative gallery, with handmade jewelry, ceramic art, drawing and paintings in a variety of mediums and more! The gallery features over 20 different artist!
Hope to see you there!

It's tangible, it's solid, it's beautiful. It's artistic, from my standpoint, and I just love real estate.

Interest rates dropped again! Rates are at record low, 4.5%! Prices are lower than they have been in years. Now is one of the best times to buy. On top of all that, Most 1st Time home buyers who purchase a home before December 1, 2009 receive a tax credit of up to $8,000.
If you have been thinking about buying a home, give me a call! I will help you with the home buying process. I will help you find a mortgage that works for you today and tomorrow.
Don't stretch yourself too much with a mortgage. Buy within your means.. it's not worth the sleepless nights.

An Opportunity of a Lifetime Warren Buffet says, "A simple rule dictates my buying: Be fearful when others are greedy, and be greedy when others are fearful." While Mr. Buffet was writing about buying stocks, the same can be said for housing today. Housing issues have permeated the economy both locally and nationally. This week, one index that tracks housing prices, S&P/Case-Shiller Home Price Indices, indicated home values fell the most since 1968, declining 18.5% in December from the year before. Looked at from a different perspective, this means home prices have fallen to levels not seen in six to twelve years, depending on individual markets. Following the Case-Schiller report was the report from the National Association of Realtors (NAR) recently. The NAR reported that home prices for the month of January fell by 14.8%. The bright spot though in contrast was that the number of homes sold in December increased. Home buyers from coast-to-coast have been buying distressed properties at the rate of 45% of total sales. Recognizing that now is the time to buy, everyone - from those looking to purchase their first home to seasoned real estate investors - is buying homes today. Bruce Norris, the head of an investment group in Southern California, expects to buy at least 100 homes this year as, "This is the buying opportunity of our lifetime." Fundamentals Point to Strength New homes or homes under construction are near all-time lows. The country's demographics point to more potential buyers coming into the housing market than projected inventory in coming years. This all points to higher prices on the horizon as demand will be greater than supply. This is supported by the fact that the inventory of unsold homes fell 2.7% in January. Why Buy Now?
Lower Prices Don't Always Equate to Lower Payments Did you know that even if home prices were to decline 10% but also during that time, interest rates available for home loans were to increase by 1.00%, your monthly principal and interest payment would actually be higher? It's true. So, if you are thinking of buying or the end of your lease is near, get busy and get in the game. To quote Mr. Buffet again, "If you wait for the robins, spring will be over." Call me and we can discuss the best options for your clients today. |
